screenStart.html did not get updated with my latest changes and is now gone...

I was looking at the source of screenStart.html (might have updated it by accident) and it shows that is was 'blue' under 'Web Resources'
From now on, even when I made updates in the UI the export gave me always the same screenStart.html file.
I thought that I could delete it. Did it with the settings 'wheel' on the right of the name: screenStart.html.
Now screenStart.html is gone and I don't have a way to re-create it again in my project.
(I can't create a new file with name screenStart)

When I do now an eclipse export this file screenStart.html NEVER gets created.
Lucky for now at least, I found that screenStart.html did get created when I did a web resources export.

Could any one help me to make screenStart.html work again in the source code export !

Thanks a lot.
(p.s. we need to get our build out this week to go into life alpha testing next week)

Hello! After you edit Source code changes won't be applied to the visual view. If you want to undo changes you need to delete edited (blue colored) files first, then click "Undo all source changes". More information here

Hello Marina

Thanks for the reference.
But that is too late for me. I did already delete the file and I am asking someone the help me re-create that file......

So I found a way my self that I will share with you.

1) goto 'Project'-'App settings':
For 'Start Page' select just for now any OTHER screen/page
2) refresh the page/editor
3) if you go now to 'Source' and open 'WEB RESOURCES' you will see that 'otherscreenpage' has a js, html and css
4) go now step 1) and I do it for my 'screenStart' page followed by step 2)

I hope this will help people to recover their screenStart.html (or js or css) file
