This is a big problem for weighted HROT rules.

There's seems a bug here:
Code: Select all
x = 0, y = 0, rule = R2,C2,S2-3,B3,136,NW8888881118810188111888888
5o$5o$2ob2o$5o$5o!
There're 136 neighbors in the weighted neighborhood, but LifeViewer says the maximum neighbors a cell can have is 8.
"8" actually means -8, because you're using one signed hexadecimal digit. Here's a fixed version:
Code: Select all
x = 0, y = 0, rule = R2,C2,S2-3,B3,136,NW08080808080801010108080100010808010101080808080808
5o$5o$2ob2o$5o$5o!
Code: Select all
4b8o$4b8o$4b8o$4b8o$4o8b4o$4o8b4o$4o8b4o$4o8b4o$4o8b4o$4o8b4o$4o8b4o$4o8b4o$4b8o$4b8o$4b8o$4b8o![[ THEME 0 AUTOSTART GPS 8 Z 16 T 1 T 1 Z 19.027 T 2 T 2 Z 22.627 T 3 T 3 Z 26.909 T 4 T 4 Z 32 T 5 T 5 Z 38.055 T 6 T 6 Z 45.255 T 7 T 7 Z 53.817 LOOP 8 ]]

There's a good chance that you can't use the pan function on mobile (maybe also happens in other touchscreen devices). When you tap somewhere in the viewer window, it seems to be like holding the "cursor".
- This seems to be like holding mouse over a button

This had frustrated me for a long time, while the bug seems to haven't been noticed by someone else yet.
EDIT: Had anyone noticed that this post yet?

I can't reproduce this.
What device are you using?
Which browser and version?
Anyone else seeing this issue?

Managed to capture that bug then sent it as compressed file (as I can't send it as mp4).
I wonder if you can see any problem...

Lifeviewer currently throws an error when trying to view the patterns in
this post, despite previously being able to do so with no problem.

Here is the first snippet from the linked post, modified to replace the long rulestring with "example" both in the RLE header and in the appended @RULE header. It works. I believe the reason why there is an error in your post is because the specified rulename doesn't follow conventions for rulenames that are explained on the page
https://golly.sourceforge.io/Help/formats.html#rulename
Fixing rulenames to follow conventions should fix the problem.
Code:
Select all
#B1.;1;0.;8.;3;3.;2;4/B2.;2a;0.5e;1e;2i.6a;1.6i;1c/1T2.;0;2e/S1.;4i;0/S2.;0;2,3
x = 48, y = 64, rule = example

Sometimes you can't copy a pattern out of forums LifeViewer. This had frustrated me recently.
EDIT: I can't get the condition for the bug to happen.

I'm sorry you're frustrated.
When reporting an issue you need to be specific and ideally provide a set of repeatable steps that demonstrates the issue.

Now LifeViewer always can't save patterns. And LifeViewer seems always unable to copy selection into clipboard (at least using default settings).
EDIT: Now the buttons in the settings are useless.
