Please note the data use policy that launched this week is completely separate from the Next Gen Preview UI. These are not connected in any way.

The crash you’re seeing is likely due to out of date plugins. Please see the OP for details.

Yeah it was caused by plugins, I had no idea that the post had been edited to inform the issue. Thanks!

I turned off all the plugins and only used the ui one, still same issue,

However the “Plugins” tab is now completely blank.


It is mentioned that the issue was caused by a deprecated function call, but could there be another issue where Studio is unable to add the plugins to the tab because it is possibly missing a critical UI element?

Asuming that the old ui will no longer be accessable?

I guess but it should stay, new ui just crashes regardless how many plugins I have on.

Viewport pop out came back with the updated docking release a few months ago. Simply drag it out of the Studio window.

We are purposely putting out a simplified UI in this initial release for a few different reasons. The last thing we want to do is slow down experienced creators.

This new UI system has far more flexibility than we’ve ever had and we are excited to tap into all of these new options available to us!

you can’t drag it, that’s the thing.

I honestly hope they don’t tbh, or migrate the UI to the new framework. As I do prefer the old one when it comes to looks.

I prefer the quality mostly, I can tell new UI will be quite hard to work with.

I would be fine with a graphics change, but layout wise the old one works better.

simply drag this tab (I marked it in red).
works in both the old and the new Studio UI

Yeah, I really agree with ya, I must say.

the issue is it crahses before loading, so I cannot.

Not all plugins cause the crash. You can try turning on just the ones you need and see if they work. We do have a fix ready for next week’s release.

then don’t claim that it does not work :person_facepalming:

Hey Paul, just wanted to ask, do you have an estimate time on when the Explorer team will be able to mitiage to the new core UI? Just a little curious, that’s all. And also, will it ever get announced here?

We don’t have an explicit plan to eliminate Qt completely as it does provide a lot of native interactions with the OS. But we are going to be building less and less UI in Qt.

as I said, I turned all of the plugins off, only UI one was enabled, but still caused crashing.
