I’ve been having an issue with Studio. Whenever I try to parent an instance to another one a few times, the app just stops responding at all and I have to force quit it and then reopen it. It happens randomly, so it’s pretty frustrating.

I don’t have a video of the bug happening right now, but I’ll post one as soon as I manage to clip it.

System Information:
Memory: 8 GB(RAM)
OS: macOS
Version: 15.3.1(with Apple Intelligence)
Chip: M2
Model: 2022 Model

Beta Features:
Everything except:

  • CreateAssetAsync Lua API
  • New Luau type solver

When it started happening:
This issue seems to have started happening after I turned on the beta feature “Next Gen Explorer” around this month (February).

Expected behavior

Roblox Studio should keep responding even if I change the instance’s parent via Properties.

We are redoing the properties panel from scratch(similar to Next Gen Explorer Beta). This issue will be fixed by design there, and as we’re focusing on shipping on new properties panel we won’t be fixing this issue in the current properties.

Please bear with us while we’re working on it and thank you for the report
