This is because RenderObjects currently has a virtual willBeDestroyed() that may depend on still being inside the tree when it executes. I’d like to simplify this eventually, and switch over to std::unique_ptr, but that will require some spooky changes to basic tree operations so I’m deferring it for now.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers and happy new year,</div><div>Kling</div></body></html>
