Hi,

We have received many complaints from our customers that the popups are not 
shown anymore after a period of time.

I have then created a simple piece of code that result in the error our 
customers get:

package test;

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Popup;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class TestFX extends Application {

            @Override
            public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
                         System.out.println("javafx.runtime.version: " + 
System.getProperties().get("javafx.runtime.version"));
                         Stage stage = new Stage();
                         Scene scene = new Scene(new StackPane());
                         stage.setScene(scene);
                         stage.show();
                         Popup popOver = new Popup();
                         for (int i = 0; i < 99999; i++) {
                                     popOver.show(scene.getRoot(), 1, 1);
                                     popOver.hide();
                                     System.out.println(i);
                         }
            }

            public static void main(String[] args) {
                         launch(args);
            }
}

I use javafx 16+8

If I run the code, it will result in error after various iterations:

Exception running application test.TestFX
B_

I have tried javafx version down to javafx 11 and the error always occurs at 
some point.

I would consider this a very critical error. The workaround seems to just set 
the opacity to 0 instead of hide(), but still I expect this code to run until 
the end..

Venlig hilsen / best regards
