"Modern Studio" (new docking behavior) has various issues

[SoCalifornian (Cali)]

I just want to add that I am experiencing issues with two things in particular:

• Drafts window - when opening a Studio place with no current drafts, and then editing a script thus creating a draft - does not remember its location (I personally keep it below my output on the left of the viewport) and keeps appearing on the right side of the viewport/script window.
• When using play-solo and then stopping, my output switches to my tag-editor plugin (both share the same panel space, but I started play-solo on the output tab and ended it in the output tab; and yet - it still switches to the tag-editor when entering back into edit mode)

It’s frustrating that these minor inconveniences still persist

Got this dialog and it’s still happening

The issue where tab selections are not remembered has returned, and the problem is even worse now:

My personal solution for this was re-installing Studio, it solved any previous UI problems. It’s always a good idea to re-install every now and then.

Before re-installing Studio, I got this message and it was still happening. Re-installing has completely solved all my problems with the UI.

Drafts window - when opening a Studio place with no current drafts, and then editing a script thus creating a draft - does not remember its location (I personally keep it below my output on the left of the viewport) and keeps appearing on the right side of the viewport/script window.

I have a specific bug for this for almost 2 months now:

Draft window loses its position every time Team Create is disabled

Reproduction Steps 1) Enable Team Create 2) Open Draft Window. The first time, the window will always open next to the script editor: [image] 3) Dock the Draft window to another place: [image] 4) As long as Team Create is active, Studio will not lose out on the new layout. Expected Behavior The layout of the Draft window cannot be lost, regardless of enabling or disabling Team Create. Actual Behavior After disabling Team Create, and in a new Studio session re-enabling Team Create…

Love knowing that even though a ‘fix’ was implemented, that this isn’t an actual button. My output window has now perma-docked itself above my secondary monitors bezel meaning that it is stuck there no matter what I do.

Is there no way to add a button to reset all widget positions as a temporary fix until this bug is actually patched?

Hello — just a quick update to share, with suggested fixes, on this issue:

Studio Docking [Fix]

Hello Creators, First, we want to let you know that we hear your many frustrations with the recent Studio docking issue and we are taking them very seriously. The team is actively working to resolve these bugs as a top priority. We have been releasing fixes as quickly as we can but these issues appear to stem from a combination of factors, including the configuration of the machine that Studio is running on. That has made it difficult to reproduce the issue enough to understand the root causes…

[ElephantMesh]

Yes - see above post from Paul

[ElephantMesh]

We would like to beta test fixes for the 3d view/toolbox undocking problem. Unfortunately, without an internal reproduction we need help from users who are willing to beta test our fixes. Please DM me if you are

1. Facing a problem with your layout undocking (ex. the 3d view or toolbox is undocked and placed at the top left of your screen)
2. Willing to beta test a fix to resolve the issue

[Noble_Draconian]

Ever since I got the “corrupted layout” dialogue, I haven’t noticed my viewport getting undocked. However, I am willing to test any beta fixes you might have, if you need me to.

I will also let you know if my viewport undocks again.

was going to send a message to @Bug-Support until i saw this topic
the toolbox is literally having a stroke, every time i open a place the toolbox keeps appearing at the top left, and when i move it the toolbox also goes to the toolbox (since both windows are merged)

[AdministratorGnar]

Sorry to jump in here.

I used to have my 3D view undocked on a 2nd monitor to edit UI in full screen.
However, my 3D view recently reset back into the middle and I can’t seem to make it pop out again.

Is this a related issue or am I missing a button/shortcut to do so?

Thanks.

I believe 3D viewport undocking has been locked for a while now, in order to reduce layout issues caused by it. This is temporary, though.

[MeshOfPaul (Paul)]

Correct. We are working very hard to restore this!

[Noble_Draconian]

@Noble_Draconian

The “Value” field of the properties widget does not handle large text values properly like it did pre-overhaul. Observe the out of place “add attribute” button, as well as the randomly blank fields.

This seems to be fixed now!

[ElephantMesh]

Hi everyone,

We believe we have resolved the remaining issues of layout corruption with release 560. Please update your Roblox Studio and let us know if you continue to face corruption of your layout (for example, a widget or 3d view being docked to the top left and unmovable). If your layout was previously broken, it should now be fixed.

[norperz]

I am still having these issues.

Specifically: The one where your game viewport just docks outside of studio and you can’t bring it back in. Happens sometimes when I try to play test or just launch studio. The bug is inconsistent and I don’t have a reproduction method besides it just happening sometimes.

[MeshOfPaul (Paul)]

Thanks for letting us know. Yes it is extremely inconsistent which is why it has been so hard to get permanent fixes in. We do have a solution for the problem when running a Test session that should go out soon. There’s also known issues with running multiple Studios on machines that are prone to this problem.

I have received this several times, I have also tried the reset layout as also suggested. It is still repeatedly happening on a regular basis.
