Can you show me which plugins you have currently ?
@jeugeneDS
@mallowigi The only two plug-ins I have downloaded are Material UI and Save Actions.
The others are plugins installed by default.
Same issue after updating Material-UI this morning.
@mallowigi any info I can provide you?
I'm not able to reproduce, sadly. Is it happening with previous versions as well ?
I did a fresh install of Webstorm and Material UI 3.9.3 on another PC. The default settings being used; new project. It's 100% reproducible.
This is not reproducible on the 3.9.2.
When the UI freeeze before to display the blue rectangle a new folder threadDumps-freeze is created in system/log. I don't know if that can help.

Hello @mallowigi.
I didn't happen before the latest update. The problem usually occurs for me when I open a folder in Navigator which has svg file inside:

After opening such folder, my Webstorm starts freezing, indicating some sort of memory leak.
It seems that the strange image located instead of filename.svg is the part of your logo or something like that.
I still can't reproduce. Can you send me the svg file, maybe there's a connection to it ?
Reproduced on a fresh install. Investigaitng
Ok it's fixed. I don't know what happened, it looks like the version has been corrupted for some reason. Just redeployed now and it looks ok.
Excellent! Thank you for your work and your reactivity.
Yeah, it works properly after the update.
Thanks a lot @mallowigi!
