During Play Testing In Editor

Unity Engine
,
1

This is what happens when I click the play button in the tester for Unity on my Linux Mint 17.2 (updated) machine. All dependencies are at recommended. Just updated to latest, 5.3.1f1, still happening. Looks a little better than post 2 though.

Updating to 5.3.1f1 seemed to help a bit, but I still have the issue.

I think this has something to do with viewport rendering. When I click and drag where the game button should be, it still seems to be there. The mouse offset in that panel is also wrong for what is shown on the screen when this happens.

Alright, so the first image here is before testing play. I undocked the “game” tab to see if the behaviour continued. It did, as you can see in the next image. Note, how it does not happen in the “scene” tab.

This will be the last post, sorry for the verbose and numerous post. I just want to seperate the information here. Can anyone confirm if this is happening with KDE, GNOME, or Cinnamon? I am using XFCE and I expect it is the culprit.

Did you try selecting a different layout (top right)? What happens if you check “maximize on play” in the game view?

Edit: I’m not having such problems (Ubuntu 15.10).

The first image is a layout switch, the second is “maximize”. Luckily! The maximize one seems to work. So I will ride along with that for a while. I would still love a confirmation of UI though.

What is your UI though? I am using XFCE, are you using GNOME, KDE, Cinnamon, ICWM (I kid :p). Also, another interesting note. The first image here is normal on the room I am testing, the second image is after I switch to another scene/room during test play. Now, I know switching rooms isn’t recommended anyhow, but it is something that works on Windows, but doesn’t work here.

I use the Unity desktop environment (default in Ubuntu).

Ah, I am using Linux Mint with XFCE. So I am going to chalk it up to that. Do any devs here have any idea if they would be so kind as to give XFCE a little love?

11

Strange… I don’t have such a bug, and I use XFCE. (Well, XFCE with mainstream Ubuntu 15.10)

EDIT: Oh yea, that game is SO SMASH BROS. :stuck_out_tongue:

I just encountered this problem myself, it seems to be caused by trying to set resolution through code (using Screen.SetResolution()). I’m pretty sure this is ignored in editor on Mac and Windows. In any case, you can prevent it from running in the editor using platform defines:

#if !UNITY_EDITOR
    Screen.SetResolution(x, y, fullscreen);
#endif

Hm, we’ll look into this.
