BUG – Gumball disappearing after dragging

As the title says

I can’t repeat that here, pls post a file

I quitted and restarted Rhino, and the problem disappeared.
There really is a LOT of random stuff going on in v8.

@the_eraser Today I ran into it as well, let’s see if we can find a pattern to reproduce

RH-77645 Gumball disappears when opening a second document

I see it has been fixed. Do you think this fix could please make it in the next release candidate of V8. It is really a frustrating bug. Still broken as of Version (8.1.23318.13002, 2023-11-14) . Do I have to wait until 8.2?

If you change your update schedule to release candidates, you should be able to use it now. If that’s no option, as a workaround, deselecting objects in the other documents should make the gumball appear in the doc you are working in.

Whether a fix goes into the current point cycle or not is up to the developer to decide. In this case @Joshua_Kennedy

I could port it back but the fix required a fair bit of changes and I’d prefer a bit more testing before it’s released. Especially since there’s such a short window before Service Release 1. There was already one crash I fixed as a result of the changes.

Understood. Thank you for the explanation.
