Action 'Select Children' doesn't select children after Copy/Paste

Bug Reports Studio Bugs
#1

Using the action “Select Children” onto instances that have children like parts inside a Folder or a ClickDectector and scrips will not select all of the children inside of that Instance which confused me on what I selected and I do “silly” things to resolve this.

Prompt bug might have happened during Studio Version 0.454 to the present version which is 0.456, and this affects my workflow and development on Roblox a ton as I use this prompt and cloning inside studio.

How to reproduce:

  • Open up Roblox Studio, and create/open a place.
  • Create parts and insert other Instances’ inside of it
  • Copy and paste these part(s).
  • Use the prompt/action “Select Children” onto all of them.
  • It should either:
    • A) Not select the first properties/instances.
    • B) Not highlight the instances, but still count them as “children”

Extremely annoying that I can’t know or see what I’ve selected as I want to make sure I move and change the properties of these instances.

I am in the process of checking over bug reports and following up on some bugs that haven’t received any activity in a while.
Is this issue still occurring or can you confirm that this bug has been resolved? We are having a hard time reproducing this issue.

Hey, this is still not fixed and I can reproduce the same error, so it isn’t resolved yet:
