Research direction

Trace the validation path for embedded screens and compare how widget dimensions are currently used to identify whether a screen is unchanged. Reproduce the DCM screen failure after editing a subscreen, then verify that validation distinguishes genuinely changed dimensions from equivalent embedded screens.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

bug

So editing the subscreens that form other screens can cause errors while validating. Need to change how we compare dimensions of the widgets to determine if it's the same screen/or changed.
