Known issues in this release
We're always striving for the smoothest experience possible. A few issues were identified during final testing that we weren't able to resolve before this release, so read to below for what to expect in the meantime. Fixes for these are already planned for upcoming releases.
- iPhone layout issue with non-default browser address bar position. On iPhone, if the browser's address bar is set to the top (non-default) position, the NLP layout can be affected. This does not occur with the default browser configuration (address bar at the bottom).
Workaround: Use the default browser address bar position; a fix is planned for the next release.
- Site may crash after a specific File menu, refresh, and Back sequence. Opening the File menu, refreshing the page, and then clicking Back in that exact sequence can cause the site to crash. This is a narrow, uncommon flow.
Workaround: Avoid refreshing the page immediately after opening the File menu; a fix is planned for the next sprint.
- Brief white screen when loading a design via “Preview this Style in a Sample Room”. Loading a design through “Preview this Style in a Sample Room” can show a brief white screen (5–6 seconds) instead of the expected loading indicator.
Workaround: No action needed, the design still loads correctly. However, a fix is planned for the next release.
