If you upload File.png, but then replace File.png with a different file, under the same name, that change will not show in Studio until a relaunch.

#2

It doesn’t seem like a bug. Many programs (like Blender) cache local images. Especially since Roblox uses the temp id thing

#3

octav is right, most programs use caches to optimize their loadings

#4

That’s valid, what is there in terms of being able to reload this cache

Hi,

Could you provide a little bit more information on this? Some repros etc.?

Thanks

Min repro:

  1. Create ScreenGui with ImageLabel
  2. Use asset manager to upload some image locally (rbxassetid protocol)
  3. Reference that image in that ImageLabel.Image field, (ex; rbxasset://image.png
  4. Save a completely different image, but by overwriting the existing image.png. You’ll see that until you reload Studio completely, the image will remain the old file
