[Fixed in 5.4.208] Can't rename children of structures in 5.4.207

I tried this with the Windows version and the online version.

After creating a structure variable with children, I can’t rename them the next time the variable screen is opened. You can type a new name but then nothing happens when you click the [apply] button. You can’t leave the variable screen unless you click cancel or change the child variable’s name back to its previous name or delete the child variable. This seems to apply to scene, global and local variables.

I also got this bug yesterday. I had to copy the structure with the changes then open the panel again and paste it to be able to apply.

Thank you for reporting an issue. It should be fixed in the next version.

As a workaround, you can:

  • add a new child in addition to the renamed child
  • then remove the added child
    (as the bug doesn’t happen when the number of children is changing).
