Event Visual Indicator No Longer Shows in the Editor
When you fire a Custom Event in the editor and play the state machine, the visual indicator no longer appears. The event still fires correctly — it's a UI change only.
In recent Rive versions, the visual indicator for Events no longer appears while playing a state machine in the editor.
What Changed?
When you fire a Custom Event and play the state machine, the highlight that used to confirm the event fired is no longer visible.
What This Means for You
Your Custom Events work exactly as before.
Events fire and trigger listeners correctly.
Only the visual indicator in the editor is gone — not a bug in your file.
