Hi Lukas,

It seems that update 4.2.2.2 has changed the way effects are displayed when there is music.
The effects disappear instantly if there is no more music!
However, I don’t have this problem on exported videos.

4.2.1.18:
1.18

4.2.2.2:

I’ve just downloaded and installed version 4.2.2.2 (I was on 4.2.2.0 before) and I notice exactly the same issue (at least I’m glad that it’s not only on my computer). It seems that it occurs with all effects having particles that last several seconds (like falling leaves, or long tails).

Note that there’s no issue when I open each effect individually in the effect editor. It’s only when playing the show in the main window.

Thanks for posting, and for describing the problem so clearly!

We are investigating this and will release a bugfix shortly.
