Night Vision is working, but just Vision is not

Set page with  Dynamic Lighting and Update on Token Drop both selected and Save Settings. Placed my map and drew in the Dynamic Lighting.  Placed a token on the Dynamic Lighting layer, gave it Bright Light (50ft.) and Low Light (25 ft.) and Save  Settings. I then placed a token on the Objects layer, gave it Vision and Save Settings. Selected the token on the Objects layer and used CTRL+L to see what the token could see. Just black. Selected the token on the Objects layer, added Night Vision (60 ft.) and Save Settings.  Selected the token on the Objects layer and used CTRL+L to see what the token could see. Vision worked as expected. Token on the Object layer with Vision should be able to "see" as long as there is a light source, but currently tokens with just Vision are  "blind". I've done everything like I always have with no problems. Would appreciate if someone could look into this please. Thank you.
I followed those steps and things work as they should. Is there perhaps a dynamic lighting barrier between the light source and the seeing token?
No, there isn't a dynamic lighting barrier in the way.

Hi Jeff! Some of this I'm sure you've checked, but this is my "why can't my players see anything?" checklist. The important thing is to verify . Don't assume. This list is written with GMs in mind, but can help players work through issues with their GM. The token is on the VTT It is assigned to the character The player has control over the character The token is on the Token/Object layer It is not blocked off by DL lines from seeing the immediate surroundings Make sure the player is looking at their token's immediate area. Shift-Click and hold on the token to pull the player's view to that area. If Fog of War is being used, that the area the token is in has been cleared The player has not been Split from the Party (Check the Help Center if this is unfamiliar) If Dynamic Lighting of any kind is being used: The token has sight turned on The token has a light source, or Nightvision (UDL) or personal light (LDL) In UDL it may be necessary to move the token one square to get everything working, or in extreme cases, refresh the (user's) page. Can you see a rotating cube in this URL ? If not, the browser needs to be WebGL compatible (99%+ are).
Never mind. FIgured it out. Somehow that particular page had the Grid Cell Distance set at -1. Thanks.

Wow, I didn't even know that was possible! I'll have to add that to the list. :D
I didn't know either. I checked one of my other pages and it was working just fine so compared settings.
