  2. Open the Shortcuts window (Unity > Shortcuts)
  3. Enter Play Mode using the shortcut (command + p/control + p)

Actual results: "UnityException: GetName can only be called from the main thread." errors are thrown

Expected results: No errors are thrown

    Same thing happening if you open any array list in Inspector. It does not happens if keep array lists closed. Solution with changing the font helped me.

    Correction: Changing the Editor Default Text Rendering Mode did not fix it for me, I still can't change the font to the System Font

    Also present in 6000.2.6f2

    I couldn't change the Editor Font, but changing the Editor Default Text Rendering Mode from SDF to Bitmap fixed it for me

    Found a quicker workaround, just re-select the current Layout.
