[Linux] MissingReferenceException error when using VFX Graph DropDown on Wayland
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a new Unity project using the Universal 3D template
- Install the Visual Effects Graph package
- Create a new Visual Effect Graph (Assets > Create > Visual Effects > Visual Effect Graph)
- Select "Simple Loop" and press the Create button
- Double click the created Visual Effect Graph to open it in the Visual Effect Graph window
- Click on the Render Quad in the Visual Effect Graph window
- Click repeatedly on the Use Base Color Map's dropdown in the Inspector window
- Observe the Console window and the Editor
Actual results: Error printed to console: "MissingReferenceException: The object of type 'UnityEditor.ContainerWindow' has been destroyed but you are still trying to access it."
Expected results: No errors are thrown and the Editor is usable
Reproducible with versions: 6000.3.0a5
Not reproducible with versions: 6000.3.0a1
Tested on (OS): Ubuntu 24.04
Notes:
- Does not reproduce on macOS Silicon Sequoia 15.5
- Only repros on Wayland and doesn't repro on 2022.04 with X
Update:
The original bug ticket stated other errors were sometimes printed and the Editor would crash. These issues have now been fixed but the MissingReferenceException remains.

Resolution Note:
There are no fixes planned for this Bug
Resolution Note (6000.3.X):
This caused by fundamental problems with GTK implementation with Wayland and cannot be easily fixed. Furthermore, any potential fix is very risky and could cause other (worse) issues elsewhere.
