scene.getGlowLayerByName() throws undefined (reading 'length') exception

[mjtdev]

Reproduction: Babylon.js Playground

Line 30 is the culprit.

Workaround:

  const layerMaybe = scene?.effectLayers?.length
    ? scene.getGlowLayerByName(name)
    : undefined;

Welcome aboard!

Thanks for reporting, I didn’t even know this function existed…

This PR will fix the problem:

Fix crash when calling getGlowLayerByName when no effects have been created yet

Seems like the helper also doesn’t know about it
May be you could (request) update on this part as well?

It’s the doc of the function which was wrong, it will be fixed by the PR too.
