Version
16.0.3062 macOS

Reproduction

  1. Download BabelStoneHanPUABeta.ttf from Releases · babelstone/babelstonehan-ufo · GitHub
  2. Open the font by FC
  3. Navigate to the glyph uniEF37
  4. Font → Insert Glyphs
  5. Input 1 to add 1 glyph
  6. Select the inserted glyph, edit the glyph properties
  7. Set Name to uniEF38 and change AW to 1024
  8. Press TAB such that RSB is updated to 1024
  9. Double click the inserted glyph uniEF38

Expected
FC should open the edit panel for the new glyph

Actual
FC scroll to the top and another glyph is selected (marked as light blue)

Workaround
Skip the step 8, do not press TAB. Execute step 9: double click the inserted glyph. The RSB will be updated as well after the edit panel is open.

Thank you. Unfortunately this issue can still be reproduced on 16.0.3064, and the workaround still works for 16.0.3064. I can test on a debug build and send log to you if you want.
