PM tabs glitches on Maximize On Play
« on: March 19, 2021, 06:47:16 AM »
I get a bunch of errors mentioning Nullrefs, Invalid editor window, Missingref when having certain Playmaker tabs active in the editor upon Play with Maximize On Play toggled on.
These eventually results in flickering black areas which overlap all editor visuals, and only way to fix it is by restoring to a previous Unity editor Layout or reset the layout all together.

This does not seem to be the case for the Playmaker Editor tab itself, as I've never had errors for this one specifically.

I often have the tab "Actions" active in the editor, and quickly forget about it when I hit Play.

Playmaker tabs that are active in the window are the ones that are potentially causing this. If example the tab "Actions" and "Hierarchy" tab share the same window where the Hierarchy is active, the layout bug will not occur.

Before I started recording here, I restarted Unity. On Setup you can see a message in console saying "The editor layout could not be fully loaded"

I added a fix for this in the latest 1.9.1p5 build in beta. Let me know if you get a chance to test it. Thanks!

Seems solid! Even tried to change layout style on Runtime with all PM editor windows active, no errors. :)
