This is a known drawback. When you switch visualizations the settings of the new visualization settings overwrite the new one, so when you switch back... you have to reconfigure. The main use case is someone switching to the table to look at the raw data. We have some ideas on how to tackle that by giving a data viewer that isn't a visualization. We also have plans to persist more series/style configuration even when the visualization is not compatible.

@cythrawll thanks, I see a similar issue where the sub totals on the data table disappear/do not persist. Is that a known issue as well? if not, I can open an another issue

Yes same issue, every time you switch visualizations, the vis settings go back to default.
