Scene content disappears in the editor

Hello fellow developers!


Very frequently I have this issue: after returning to the scene editor tab in Xcode all the content disappears from the scene.


Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open SpriteKit project with SKS file in it. Put something into the file

2. Go to another tab, switch back. Repeat one or few times if needed.

3. See the empty scene, nodes are all lost.

Does anybody else have it? Any tips to get rid of this annoying bug?

Hello Pavelgubarev.


I filed a radar about the bug some weeks ago.

The bug remains in xcode 7.3 beta.


good luck.

This kind of disappearing act happens to some of my posts. And entire threads sometimes, too.


It's an Apple feature, I suppose.

Does anybody else have his OSX totally frozen when they quit Xcode?

Hello pavelgubarev.


Yes, my OSX gets totaly frozen for seconds, somtimes a minute. It has been going on for over a month.

I filed a bug about it. But not fixed.

Ha! So it's not forever. I never tried to wait, just switch mac off by holding the power button. Next time I'll try. The thing is I can't keep Xcode open because I need it to restart to get scene editor working 🙂


God, this is annoying.

Somtimes i have to make the "hard reset to". if the mouse cursor stops to respond more than a minute or two i make the powerbutton work around 😁.


When it works the whole screen makes a "rewind" effect. all previous windows poping up in 10x speed.😁

Yup, if you take a look in Activity Monitor before you go for the quit you will notice its using a huge amount of memory also. Mine was using 20+ gig, locked up, waitied 35 minutes then hit reset, like you say its been going on for months.

Fuzzygoat i will check the activity monitor.

When there is time i will also make a clean install of osx, maybe it helps.

Hi pavelgubarev and indiedeveloper,


Thanks for bringing this to our attention and filing your bug (ID 24152017). We are actively pursuing a fix for this issue and will notify you, via your bug report, as soon as a fix is in place. We appreciate your patience.


Thank you.

It also uses a lot of CPU. Product->Clean reduces the load so I can hear fans of macbook start to make less noise.
