Description (last modified by butler)
From Paul's testing on 28th August 2016:
"PR mostly works as it did except that I was able to crash SasView (just exits abruptly and completely - no error message either popping up or in logs), by using the backspace key in the Dmax box ….sometimes … I think I can reproduce with a few tries but have not nailed exactly the magic combination that does that."
There is a long history of crashes with P(r). Needs some debugging.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Actually we (myself but mostly Mathieu) spent some time working on the bugginess of P(r) for one of the 3.x releases (can't remember which) and fixed quite a number of things and as far as I know it has been fairly stable since. this is a very particular key stroke combination I think — otherwise worked fairly well.
However this is one of if not the oldest part of the code that has been hardly touched in 10 years so could certainly do with some TLC overall.
