The problem I noticed is that the plugin (View Manager) doesn't have an additional .json alongside the .zip file.
All the information is listed in each library. Normally, I am able to figure out the problems by going through the .db and .json files, but I couldn't find anything about the View Manager gui settings. I searched in the .db and the back up preferences. The views are listed (columns and sizes, etc.) but the gui parameters weren't listed. Since the problem was specific to one library and its' descendants, I checked in their database files. I even used compare it, but couldn't figure out where the differences were.
I had a similar problem a while ago with the manage tag browser columns. Couldn't see all three columns at once. I ended up finding that the column width for the current tag was set to 1400 or some such astronomical size. I fixed it.
