- "Rendering Debugger" displays incorrect overdraw count when using "Unlit/Texture" shader
- Scene and Game views break when the Editor window is snapped with the Microsoft PowerToys
- Materials do not transfer texture when the "Shader" parameter is changed from "Unlit/Texture" to "Universal Render Pipeline/Unlit"
- [Linux][Vulkan] Crash when opening searchable dialog
- The "Shader error in 'AE/Leaves': "Undefined punctual shadow filter algorithm"" error appears when build completes on a specific project
Resolution Note:
There is no way to a priori know that the amount of work in a compute shader dispatch is too much for the GPU causing a driver timeout. In the future if we get device lost recovery and improved debug info from driver we might have more informative error.
