Hi, using the latest official version of the engine, when I do the following:
create a vertical box
create a text block inside it
create a button also inside the same vertical box (just below the text block)
copy the button (ctrl+c on the button in the canvas, not from the component explorer)
paste it, also in the vertical box in the canvas
the app crashes to the desktop.
It isn’t random, I could reproduce it 2 out of 2 times.
Sometimes doing a ctrl+z in UMG also generates a crash, but I didn’t document it yet.
Hello Artemix,
I was unable to reproduce this issue on our end. I have a few questions for you that will help narrow down what issue it is that you are experiencing.
Quick questions:
When you paste the button, do you have the other button selected?
Can you reproduce this in a clean project?
If so, could you provide any steps that may have been left out of the original set of steps given?
Is this a project that has been upgraded from an older version of the engine?

Sure:
Yes, I select the button first, ctrl + c, then with the button still selected I do the ctrl+v.
Yes, I’ve created a blank project and I made it crash again.
Nothing much to add, I will specifically detail what I just did:
I create a blank project
I add a widget blueprint
I open the widget blueprint
add a vertical box inside the canvas
move the VB to the center of the canvas, resize it to make it a bit larger
drag a button inside the VB
select that button
ctrl+C
ctrl+V
I can see the second button added, it seems like it is ~5 pixels below the first one, and it is being overlapped by the first one.
crash
This is the crash report:
Hello Artemix,
After reviewing the new information provided I did some digging and I found that this issue is a known issue (UE-10040) and that it has been fixed internally. This resolution will be available in a later release of the engine. Thank you for your time and information.
Make a great day
