Error opening FIT files from Hubble Legacy Archive
« on: 2013 February 24 05:34:10 »
I am getting the following error every time:

PCL Unix Signal Handler: Critical signal catched (11): Segmentation violation

I have tried opening through menu, file explorer and drag and drop. I have also tried every setting I could think of the FIT format setting. When "How to proceed" is set to "always ask" I get a message that pixel values are from about -6e0 to 1.12e2 but even if I enter these values in the input range I still get the error.

I am running 1.8 RC3 on an iMac core duo running OSX 10.6.8

edit: I can open the files in FITS Liberator and convert them to TIFFs and then they open in PI but that's not really the workflow I would want.

Hi,

This bug has already been reported (you?), and is now fixed in version 1.8.0 RC4, whose release is imminent.

Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

Juan,

Thanks for responding. It wasn't reported by me. I searched the forum but didn't see it. I eagerly await RC4!
