Hello,

In **Paraview 5.12 RC2** when I use the Time Manager ( **View** \> **Time Manager** ) then I add the Camera to **follow a Path** , I cannot modify the path of the camera (the spline) interactively (using the mouse). I remember being able to do that in previous versions.

Here is a screenshot:

In the screenshot, the white line is the camera path (it is a circular path), I cannot click on it because the top dialog is activated. When I press on the “ **OK** ” button, the path **disappears**.

Thank you

It is indeed a regression, an issue was opened ([https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/issues/22416](https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/issues/22416)).

Actually, this was a really small fix, so I did it here: [https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/merge\_requests/6665](https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/merge_requests/6665)

Many thanks for the fix.

@nicolas.vuaille Will this fix be available in Paraview 5.12? or 5.13?. I personally wish it will be released in 5.12.

Regards
