So this is hard to explain and I’m not really sure what is causing this, but I’m tracing out the height of a display object and I get the correct width but then the height is -107,373,476 (which is not the correct height). I’ve never seen something like this before and I honestly have no idea what is causing it. Has anyone else ever encountered something like this?
