Hi there!
Had anyone recently problems with RStudio Data Viewer in the preview versions 1.2.x, where the Data Viewer shows only a blank tab, NO grid, NO attributes, NO data, eventhough there is data in the specific read in .csv Textfile? However, viewing the data via utils::Viewer(Textfile) just works fine.
I'm aware, that this issue was already discussed in former versions of RStudio, but the css-font-family solutions do not work in my case.
I opened an issue on this topic on RStudio Github as well (#3734 )
I appreciate any help or shared experience on that topic!
Best, Gregor

If you're here to report a bug in RStudio, please take the time to fill out as much of the below as you're able so that we can reproduce the problem you're seeing. -->
### System details
RStudio Edition : Desktop
RStudio Version : 1.2.1070
OS Version : Windows 7 Prof. SP1 64bit; Windows 10 Home 64bit
R Version : R-3.5.1
### Steps to reproduce the problem
1. Copy a .csv Textfile into the data directory of a R Project
2. Reading the .csv Textfile via read_delim() into the workspace:
Textfile <- read_delim("data/Textfile.csv", delim = ";", locale = locale(decimal_mark = ".", grouping_mark = ","))
3. View(Textfile) or selecting in Global Environment
### Describe the problem in detail
When trying to view a read in .csv Textfile in the RStudio Data Viewer, only a blank tab occurs, i.e. NO grid, NO attributes, NO data, eventhough there is data in the Textfile. However, using the command utils::View(Textfile) shows the data frame with the data of the Textfile in the "utils-Data-Viewer" without any problem.
### Describe the behavior you expected
I would have expected, that the read in Textfile is beeing shown with its values in the grid of the RStudio Data Viewer, for this works for the "utils-Data-Viewer" just fine.
