Save Scenes throws error

[PhaestusFox]

when saving a scene it fails because "Type 'core::option::Option<bevy_render::camera::camera::Viewport>' did not register ReflectSerialize.

this feels like it should no prevent the saving a scene and just skip the missing types

I don't think this is in my control as I just serialize the whole world and display any errors coming from the serialization:

bevy_editor_pls/crates/bevy_editor_pls_default_windows/src/scenes.rs

Lines 59 to 61 in 54dad09

	let scene = DynamicScene::from_world(&world, type_registry);
	let ron = scene.serialize_ron(type_registry)?;

If you want to be able to serialize scenes where not every component is serializable and they are just skipped, I believe this would need support from bevy itself.
Until then you can just call .register_type::<Option<Viewport>>() once in your app to fix it, until 0.9 gets released with bevyengine/bevy#5747.

ah yes my confusion is that bevy already skips anything that doesn't reflect component but just because it reflects component doesn't mean it reflects serializable.
I am working on a from_world that will only serialize an entity matching the query, if I get it working ill submit a pull that will allow people to use your editor in a way it won't serialise the editor-specific entities such as the cameras.
