[discovered bug] gumball + spotlight behavior

Hi all!

I’m thrilled to have discovered what feels like an annoying gumball + spotlight bug in R8:

When manipulating a spotlight, the gumball ‘motion’ freezes (not sure how to describe it, see video below). It works, but it’s lethargic, with rotation arcs going away—I must deselect objects and re-select in order to make it behave normally, though that doesn’t make the issue go away.

Here’s a video (R8):

R7 is fine:

Nada??!

Confirming this persists after latest R8 release: 8.25.25314.11001 (installed today).

Both R7 and WIP behave normally.

I checked with other lights (i.e., ‘rectangular light’), same thing.

Thank you for looking into it.
I’ll be making spotlights, copy-pasting them to R7 or WIP, manipulating there, then copy-paste them back to R8.
Fun.

Sorry not seeing that. Run SystemInfo and post the results to start.
