summary

Summary: In Verse UI canvases, the quiet_button widget intermittently loses focus and freezes for Xbox controller and Switch. Also generally looks visually different than on PC (black text with no background instead of the expected white on white rectangle). The player can’t proceed and must restart the game. Regular and Loud buttons are fine.

This makes quiet button unusable. Even without the freezing, the visual glitch for controllers turns white text black, making the button invisible or faint on dark UI backgrounds.

reproduction

Create a UI canvas with a button using verse and test it with an Xbox controller or Switch.

expected-result

Button should function and look the same regardless of platform.

observed-result

On controller, button looks different (black text not white), and stalls on controller intermittently.

platforms

Broken for XBox controller and Switch, works fine on PC. I didn’t try it on other platforms because I don’t have them.

notes

I already reported this issue using the Bug Report form on the FN website, but it appears the Forums “Issue” post fields now match the format of the Bug Report page. In the future do I need to report it both places or can I just report it in the Forums? What’s the advantage of posting as “Issue” instead of “Discussion”?

Also could you please add a field for attaching videos and images to this type of post? There is no way for me to show them here.

Edit: I was able to attach images when I edited this post after initially posting it. I still think there should be a way to attach images/videos beforehand though.
