Broken: version: 2.80 (sub 74), branch: master, commit date: 2019-06-29 14:01, hash: rBf566212aa237

Description of issue
I've been experiencing this problem from months now. What really draws my attention is that it continues to happen in recent builds, as it seems like such a basic and common feature.

  • From the Render Menu, set the Display Mode to New Window
  • Start a Render with F12

Result:
_ The current layout in use is completely broken, staying in the Image Editor with a blank canvas showing the grid. The actual image is rendered and stored in the 'Render Result' slot, but is not set as the current image in use.
_ The new window is actually created, but totally blank, with no user interface and no rendered image.
_ Even worse, if you launch the render manually from the User Interface, it makes Blender to crash. Instead of pressing F12, just go to Render > Render Image: It crashes.

Before Blender crashes with a segmentation fault, this error occurs:

internal error: modal gizmo-map handler has invalid area

And when Blender closes it generates the log:

Does this happen with factory settings, or is there something specific in your preferences or you startup file affecting this?

You're right. It seems that something was corrupt somehow. By returning all to factory settings it works normally.

I investigated a bit further and discovered that this happens when the operator of RENDER_OT_render receives a copy of the current context as an override.
Like this:

bpy.ops.render.render(bpy.context.copy(), "INVOKE_DEFAULT")

Then, all above symptoms replicate. It only occurs when the display mode is in New Window. With all other display modes, passing the override to the operator works just fine.

I can confirm that the UI gets into a weird state when running:

bpy.ops.render.render(bpy.context.copy(), "INVOKE_DEFAULT")

I also get a crash if I close the empty render window that pops up:

No one, this is low priority.
