Unable to detect Rectangle sense, have there been changes in the recent updates?

[rmod8]

Good day. I've updated my project's version of egui to the latest of writing, 0.34.3, and it's been pretty good.

Only one problem, my rectangles seem to no longer sense hover or sense even being clicked.

let center_rect = egui::Rect::from_center_size(
                egui::pos2(split_x_pos, split_y_pos),
                egui::vec2(center_size, center_size),
            );

let center_response = ui.allocate_rect(center_rect, egui::Sense::click_and_drag());

if center_response.clicked() {
     panic!()
}

if center_response.hovered() {
     ui.set_cursor_icon(egui::CursorIcon::AllScroll);
}

I've looked around the Q&A but found no mentions to changes to how to handle drawing rectangles and detecting clicks. If this is wrong, please do let me know and I will delete this post.

Note: This rect is allocated and drawn above other rects and all of this code is within a deprecated CentralPanel::default().show(ui, |ui| {}); method, have there been changes there as well?

Also, the panic there was to test clicking even worked (which it doesn't).

Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.
