App freeze when object name already taken

I’m on the AppImage for Linux distribution. When I created a new object with a name already taken a popup appeared to say it was already taken and the app completely freeze and I couldn’t even click anywhere on my screen.

Can you share a screenshot


When the popup is shown I can’t click anywhere, I have to manually stop the application in my terminal.

Can you confirm which GDevelop version you are using?

The GDevelop-5-5.0.0-beta101.AppImage version

Isn’t there a newer version, try that (Don’t know if it fixes it). I will try it on my Linux system and see if I have the same problem.

Thanks, I have forwarded the bug to the devs.

I can confirm. I happened to me too. It happen even when you rename a scene which is already taken. It doesn’t really freeze, If you press enter the pop up closes. The only problem is the mouse click won’t close the pop up.

Hi there!
Is this bug still a thing? 4ian had made a possible fix but there has been no feedback since. Maybe you have the answer!
