“ContributeGI” checkboxes for 2D Lights in Search window don’t retain their checked state
Unity: Search
Won't Fix
6.7.X
6.6.X
6.5.X
Contribute GI is a property for MeshRenderer. Light do not care about this and the data is reset by native code.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create new Unity project using Universal 2D Template
2. In Hierarchy create few different 2D Lights (e.g Sprite Light 2D, Spot Light 2D)
3. Open Search window and search for Light 2D
4. Try checking “ContributeGI” check boxes
Actual results: checking “ContributeGI” checkboxes don’t stay checked, they are automatically reverted to unchecked Expected results: ContributeGI” checkboxes remain checked after being toggled on
Reproducible with versions: 6000.5.0b6, 6000.6.0a4 Can’t test with versions: 6000.4.5f1 and lower (search window doesn’t have “ContributeGI” check boxes)
Tested on (OS): macOS Silicon Tahoe 26.4.1, Ubuntu 24.04
Notes:
sometimes, unchecking one checkbox after checking all of them causes all checkboxes to become unchecked automatically
