Upon using Find All, there is a chance that it will return nothing. When this happens, it is too late. Studio appears to function fine, however no matter what you enter into Find All at that point, nothing will ever return. Switching to the 3D view from a script will cause the center window to freeze and continuously display whatever was last displayed on screen and eventually enter Window’s “Not Responding” state. If no tab is switched, upon attempting to publish or save the game, studio will again enter the “Not Responding” state as if waiting for an intensive task to finish requiring you to close studio and lose all unsaved progress.
Agreed. This has been going on for months. I can use search all once or twice before design studio becomes unresponsive. Sometimes this is preceded by “Script Editor’s read-only due to an unstable connection. It’ll be editable again once stable”. If I don’t use search all, I can work for days with no problem. Thanks for looking into this.
This issue is becoming more problematic as for the first time it has caused other applications in the background to crash somehow. Coincidentally, I have had this issue happen over 4 times today.
Have also been experiencing this at least a dozen times per day for a few weeks now. Not very reproduceable but consistent enough to severely affect workflow.
We are working a project to solve a class of issues that hang or crash Studio. As a of this project, we should have a much more stable Studio by the end of the year and hopefully even sooner.
The Find All issue is part of this. In the next few weeks we’ll have improved detection for this set of problems as well, however in the meantime we would appreciate any repro steps, Studio logs or place files (in DM) to better understand what kind of places might cause this.
It seems like multiple places are impacted. We’ve received more reports of this since, in different threads on the form. I’ll see if we can escalate this specific issue, given there seems to be a clear, easy to reproduce pattern here.
This bug is incredibly annoying, and it seems certain keywords triggers it in certain places. For example, searching “Sprint” causes the studio to completely freeze for our game. It happens for both me and my co-developer and reproduces 100% of the time.
Just want to bump this thread, because it’s been happening to me a lot and it’s really frustrating.
Same trigger (or an indicator): select a text and open Find All using a shortcut. It’s one of my main ways to navigate around code, so on a busy day I have to force quit Studio 10+ times.
For me it started around the time the new interface docking system was rolled out. Only happens on my main PC (two monitors), laptop is seemingly fine, tho I use it much less.
