After copying it to a new report, how do I revive a box showing "Can't display the visual"?

[HalloWorld]

This question is a bit like Solved: Can't display the visual - Invalid or malformed Qu... - Microsoft Fabric Community since it has the same errors in the visuals.

I copied a box from one report to the other. It is linked to a heading that is saved as a column, and without this column, the box fails to show anything:

> An "X" is shown in a circle.

> Can't display the visual
>
> (German: Die Visualisierung kann nicht angezeigt werden)

> Show Details
>
> (German: Details anzeigen)

If you click on it, you get:

> The QueryDefinition Select is missing or empty. A semantic query must contain at least one select.

You cannot work in the "Format" tab, only an error is shown:

> Something is wrong with the visual element. Correct the error to use formatting options. (translated with DeepL)
>
> (German: Mit dem visuellen Element stimmt etwas nicht. Beheben Sie den Fehler, um Formatierungsoptionen zu verwenden.)

Yet, I could revive such a box in a new report by chance, but I do not know how I did it. It had the same problem, but I could later work in the "Format" tab again. I could reach this aim even for another box again, and again I do not know how this came up.

You need to click on "Update"

Afterwards, you can see the "Format" tab without the error:
