Expected Behavior

I want to use the animator editor to edit my marker events.

Actual Behavior

When you click “…” studio throws an error and does nothing. Sometimes the gui glitches and you cannot press cancel or exit as well. See GIF showcase: https://gyazo.com/dbe6ddce6640bc542f84d4a1383b31da

Hi there!

Thanks for your report. We will work on a fix as soon as possible.

In the meantime, as a workaround, you should be able to edit the events directly from the Explorer. You can save your animation, which will create a CurveAnimation or a KeyframeSequence instance under the AnimSaves folder located directly under the animated rig. While you are at it, make sure you save it twice, so you have a backup copy should anything go wrong during the next steps.

Navigating through the hierarchy, you should be able to find the event(s) you want to edit, and make the necessary modifications.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi there!

A fix was released shortly after your report and everything should be running properly now. Are you encountering any more difficulties?

Cheers!

Not really, this problem was solved a while ago for me.
