Type tool FREEZES !!!!!

Question

Hello, I just installed the latest Adobe Xd update, but a problem that I used to encounter has surfaced again.

While working, suddenly the type tool becomes inactive, in the sense that I cannot type anything new, the type cursor doesn't show, and this problem is also extended to the properties section, where I cannot type in a new value but only change values using the up and down arrow keys.

It is really affecting the workflow, once it happens it is like that for a good 5-10 minutes.

Kindly Assist.

Hey there, it's a known bug that's been around for a while. The current workaround is to Alt+Tab to a different program / window and back to Xd, which fixes it, until it breaks again...

Unfortunately, there hasn't been a clear indication to what causes the bug, as it seemingly happens at random. Sometimes it happens 5 minutes after you've made a clean file, other times you can work for hours until it happens.
