On Arnold core 5.3.0.1 can you use the isolate mode of the Arnold render view without freezing/crash

Arnold Core 5.3.0.1

Linux Centos 7

I tried to Use the Isolate mode of the arnold RenderView to look at some nodes on a basic Shader and when I switch node Maya freeze and crash.

The Shader I test is rather Basic

A Color compostite in Mix operation plug in the Base color of a Ai standar Surface.

And The Red chanel of aiNoiseCell (that I use like and alpha) plug in the Factor of the Color composite.

If I selection The aiNoiseCell and don't let the render finish in the Arnold render view and clic on the color Composite maya Freeze and crash. If I let him finish is render I'm fine ....but on the older version I never bother to wait after the render was complet to chance node and never freeze or crash by switching node.

I tried another computer and event to reset my maya preference and get the same result

Hello, based on the description we're not managing to reproduce your crash.

Could you provide us a simple repro scene ? There might be something in your scene that we don't have on our side.

Thanks

Actually, I was testing with only this shader in the scene. But in a scene with other objects and shaders, it's easy to reproduce. Thanks for reporting, we're looking into a fix

Thank you for the fast answer. Did you still need a scene from me with the bug in it ?

[sebastien.blaineau.ortegaHRM3U]

no thanks, we have a repro now !

Hello I am using windows 10 and experience the same issue. if I isolate selected while the render view is up and switch between two nodes in the hyper shade (a mask and an alpha files’ range node), it will freeze maya.
