Studio stops responding after an attempt of parenting an instance via Properties section in the Next Gen Studio Preview

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.
