Filter selection disappeared

For some time now, after an update, I no longer have access to the filter and transform selection in the effects. It only shows Blur or Translate . I can’t choose another one unless I type it manually.
What could be causing this issue?

Hello @zipe3,

Thanks for writing in!

The default is Blur for Filter and Translate for the Transform effect. Click on the item and then the selection displays as shown in the screenshots below.

Circle back if you are still having some issues.

I don’t see the drop-down menu. I’ve attached a screenshot of what I see. I’m on a Mac.

Hello @zipe3,

Please have a look at the given screen recording video to learn more about how to set the effect.

Hope it helps
Thanks

Hello, I finally managed to get the drop-down menu to appear by clicking several times in the small window. My problem seems to stem from another issue I reported on the same day: Closing windows.
There seems to be a pixel misalignment problem. When I click in this type of window, I’m unable to close the small boxes or switch tabs.
I’m on a Mac Studio with a Retina display. I’ve read that there could be a pixel misalignment. But I can’t figure out how to fix this rather annoying problem. Do you have any ideas?
I asked for chat gpt and here are the answers it gave me, in case they help you help me. I’ve tried a few things without success. The text is in French, but you can translate it :slight_smile:

Hello @zipe3,

Thanks for the updates. I logged in to your site and could not replicate the issue. Check out the video screencast I added to the secure note below, which shows I can easily switch between the HTML, Raw, and Rich Text Format windows.

Cheers.

I understand you don’t have this problem because you’re not on a Mac Studio with an external Mac Studio Display. Everything works fine on my laptop. The problem appeared after an update about a year ago. I’ve lived with it all this time, but now it’s wasting far too much of my time.
Have you changed the programming of those little windows? As written in the chatgpt, it seems to indicate that invisible windows are preventing clicks on my installation type. I took the search further with Codex by creating a plugin that was supposed to fix this kind of problem, which could be related to z-index or something else, but nothing worked :frowning:

(Check out my search to get an idea of ​​what my problem might be)
You really have no idea what the problem is?
If it doesn’t get fixed, I’ll have to use another of my computers to run my websites, which isn’t ideal :frowning:

I tested it on my Mac laptop and everything works fine. I tested it on my employee’s new iMac. It works a little better, but I still sometimes have trouble closing small windows. So there’s clearly a small problem with Macs :frowning:

So, do you have any idea what the problem is with Macs?

Hello,
I did some research and here are my findings. Hopefully this will help you with your own research.

I’m experiencing a UI issue in Cornerstone / Pro Builder on macOS that appears to be related to floating editor windows (floaters) .

Environment :
– Mac Studio
– Apple Studio Display (normally with a second external display, but the issue also occurs with only one screen connected)
– macOS [exact version here, e.g. Sequoia 15.x]
– Browsers: Firefox, Chrome, Safari (same behavior in all of them)

Where it happens :
– Front-end builder ( /cornerstone/edit/… )

Issue description :
When editing a Text element, the floating “Text Editor” window becomes difficult or impossible to interact with. The Close (X) button and the tabs (Rich Text / HTML / Raw) often do not respond to clicks. I have to click multiple times, or move the window slightly, for the interaction to register.

It feels like an invisible overlay or hitbox offset is intercepting mouse clicks, even though the button is visible and appears active.

Steps to reproduce :

  1. Open /cornerstone/edit/###
  2. Edit a Text element
  3. Open the floating Text Editor
  4. Try switching tabs or closing the window
  5. Result: clicks are ignored or intermittent

DevTools observations :
– The window is a .tco-floater.is-text-editor
– The close button is button.tco-floater-header-close
– Other overlays such as tco-overlay / tco-progress-overlay are present in the DOM

Additional notes :
– The issue occurs on multiple sites
– It persists after clearing cache and disabling optimizations
– It happens even with only one display connected
– It appears macOS-specific (clients on Windows do not experience it)

Is there:
– A way to disable floating windows and force a docked panel mode?
– A recommended CSS/JS workaround (z-index / pointer-events) for macOS?
– Or a known issue with floaters on recent macOS versions?

Thank you for your help.

Thank you for the additional information. We’ll take this into account.
