SurfaceGuis disappearing

So it looks like images in SurfaceGuis are unloaded when they are out of your camera view, but it’s happening while still in the camera. See pictures below:

All I did here was rotate my camera a bit, and the image disappeared.

According to Max, fixed in a future version.

Oh, I didn’t see that thread. Thanks!

The bug seems to have resurfaced surfacegui bug.gif

Edit: Only in a weird circumstance explained below, oop

Repro?

surfacegui test - Roblox (uncopylocked)

This is expected - the surface guis assume that they do not go out of bounds of the parent part, and are culled using these bounds.

(Changing this would require tracking max size of UI elements which is possible but probably non-trivial to implement)
