Dynamic PSF Window Causing Errors and Disappearing

[Salvatore Giambruno]

Dynamic PSF caused an error to appear (I think access violation) when I tried to close the interface.  I just ignored it.  When I tried to open another dynamic interface, I got an error saying itcouldn't be opened becuase PSF was already open but the window was nowhere to be found.  I tried closing the project (after saving), but that process merely aborted.  I closed all the image windows hoping it would disconnect the ghost dynamic PSF interface but then I got this pop-up:

"Internal error: MainView::~MainView(): Unexpected shared image reference:
Image821_clone
This denotes corruption of internal data structures. To stay on the safe side, save your data, exit the application, and start again. Please report this problem to our development team."

After this, tried to exit PI and got this pop-up:

"At address 00007FF6C4CAC8DB with exception code C0000005 :
Access violation: invalid memory read operation at address 0000000000000008"

Tried opening another project and got this in the console:

Loading project:
F:/Astronomy/PI/PROJECTS/SH_2_162 Bubble Nebula.xosm
* Project integrity verified, SHA1 checksum = 25b84683ba5a5e0d7fda8504d3fc185de832dfaa

Hi Salvatore,

I apologize for this error. I cannot reproduce it with our test data. Can you please upload the image where DPSF failed this way?

No Problem, Juan. 

I'm not sure what image you are referring to.  I can't do a screenshot because the crashed PI session has long-since been terminated.

At the risk of exposing my ignorance on the use of Dynamic PSF, I was gathering PSF samples from a heavily-processed, non-linear subframe, NOT A SUBFRAME.   I'm not sure if this is relevant or if it explains why the process crashed.

I've since been using Dynamic PSF and am not experiencing a recurrence of the problem - so I'm happy for now.  However, let me know if there is anything else I can do to assist you if you wish to troubleshoot this problem further.

Thanks for your help.
