PI 1.8: crash when closing multiple previews
« on: 2013 November 20 13:23:53 »
Hi,
in the latest release, the one from today, I can consistently crash the program with a seg fault when I define more than one preview and then select close all from the preview menu. If there's only one, it's fine. If I close them one by one it's also fine.
If I can do something more to debug, please ask! I'm running PI 64 bit on a Kubuntu 13.10 install.

Stayin' up late to try them new toys, aren't we? ;P
Seriously though, I'm glad I'm not the only one. This brought back some scary monsters as 1.7 pre releases used to do the same to me...

Same here. Seems OK on Mac, just get the error with Windows.

Bug confirmed. I'm fixing it right now.

I'll upload new installation packages with this bug fixed in a while. Thank you so much for testing the new release.

Don't worry about that. This is a very simple mistake, it has nothing to do with those old problems.
