I couldn’t find a proper category for this, apologies if it doesn’t fit here.
For the last couple of days my ability to develop games has been hindered by a roblox studio bug which causes the Insert Object menu, albeit still working, to be completely invisible. Every possible way I can think of to open the menu yields the same results (The plus icon in the explorer, CTRL+I, Insert Object button after right clicking on an object).
Restarting studio didn’t work, so I reinstalled both Roblox and Roblox studio, but that didn’t fix the issue either. Searching up the issue didn’t yield any results relevant to the issue I’m having.
This clip shows that the menu is invisible rather than just not opening (notice the cursor changing when hovering over where the text entry would normally be)

This clip shows me typing ‘Part’ into the text entry and pressing Enter, showing that it works just fine, it’s just that, again, the UI is completely invisible.

I’m not sure how else I could solve this, so if anyone has any solutions I’d appreciate it.
Has this started happening after roblox had released the new icons and High DPI capabilities? If so, this update might be the issue, and you should report a bug. If you read that topic announcing this update, people might have the same issue, and might have a solution for you.
The clip shows the old Icons so that means it happened before the update…
Try selecting the model and do Crtl + i, maybe it would work? idk
• Make sure Roblox Studio is up to date.
• Check if the object menu is appearing on another window.
• Check if the object menu appears using another device. (If you have another device with Roblox Studio.) If it doesn’t appear using another device, you might have a virus in your game.
• Open a new Baseplate and see If the object menu appears. If it appears, then you might have a virus in your game.
• Delete any unnecessary scripts and plugins. (This will prevent any viruses.)
If none of this works, send a message to @Bug-Support.
Instead of the object menu, you can paste this code into the Command Bar.
local part = Instance.new("Part")
part.Parent = game.Workspace
Or search for a part in the Toolbox.
After a bit of toying around, I found out that the key combination to restart my graphics driver (win key + ctrl + shift + B) makes the menu visible, although I have to repeat this everytime I open the Insert Object menu. Not sure what to do with this information, updating graphics drivers only caused more issues so I had to roll back.
