This post is related to this one. I'm just splitting the linked post, because it contains two problems I have.

The problem is descirbed in the other post, but in short:

  • Opening Edit > Preferences
  • Not changing anything, just clicking "Ok"
  • Error occurs (see screenshot) and memory dump file created (already sent to Mario via email)
  • Re-booted -> not solved
  • Re-installed (after de-installing) -> not solved

I have received your DUMP file and identified a bug and fixed it.
But before I did that, I tried to reproduce the problem. And the only way I could repro it was to close Application Preferences while the Sort Profiles tab was active. Is this the case for you too?

The reason for the crash is that this tab sends a message "Sort Profiles Changed" and when the File Window handles this message, it does not "break", causing another event handler to be called and this event handler expects some data that is not filled by the SortProfilesChanged event => crash.

No, I get the crash also on other tabs. Just checked with "ID Plate" (nothing changed, just clicked OK) -> crash.

Checked on the Laptop: Crash when "Sort Profiles" is active. No crash when "ID Plate" is active.
Desktop: Always crash.

I can reproduce this only when the File Window received a "SortProfilesChanged" event and I will include a fix for this in the next release. Hopefully this fixes this problem at your end.

I know

I hate bugs.
In software. Not the other kind.
