PCL Win32 Exception on form group expansions

[patrickgilliland]

Hi Juan et al,

Please see another error below. Since upgrading I have been receiving on various menus when I try to expand a group.
As yet I have found no pattern to what instigates and a restarts usually resolves.
Is this part of the other PCL issue scheduled for fix/release or is it already logged as an issue?
This has only started on last update.

Many Thanks

Paddy

Because of these problems, I went back to the PI 1.8.3

As we have noted in other bug report threads, this is a graphics driver problem. Basically, the 1.8.4 core application depends on hardware resources that previous versions didn't use.

I would try this procedure:

which has solved similar issues in most cases. Anyway, I am just finishing a new 1.8.4 version that will be much more robust to poor OpenGL driver implementations.

Version 1.8.4.1185 has been released. It should fix all of these problems on Windows.
