Hi Jakub -
Yes, I’ve been bisecting the cause of this issue for a while now. When I find the source of the regression, I’ll put it on the list.

Note that you can run the PluginManager command to jump to a different page in that dialog. From that different page, you can change to any other page. It’s just the Render page in the Document Properties that is stuck…

Thanks,

I also got this.

So together with another bug, this caused me to I want to revert to the stable releases… but seems this can’t be done within Rhino? I selected “service release” from the updates menu and did a check for updates, and it says I’m on the latest version. Rhino doesn’t offer an in-app downgrade?

It doesn’t. You need to uninstall current Rhino and install from stable installer - you can redownload it from the download page.

Uninstalling Rhino does not remove your settings
