Latest issues
- Articulation Body with 'Revolute' Joint Type has erratic behavior when Upper Limit is set to above 360
- WebGL Player fails to render Scene when Terrain with Detail Mesh is added and WebGPU Graphics API is used
- Inconsistent errors are logged when different types are passed into the Query "Q<>" method in UIToolkit and the ancestor VisualElement is null
- Crash on GetMaterialPropertyByIndex when opening a specific Scene
- Discrepancies in the styling are present when using a TSS file instead of a USS file in custom EditorWindow
Resolution Note:
This change was by design to guard against windows disappearing off the screen or losing the top bar to move the window due to DPI differences in displays. A full screen playmode is something we would like to implement in the future.
