I've seen this once too @MikeTO, but like yourself haven't had any luck in finding a recipe/reproducing it. Sometimes if you close the app down and it crashes on close it can cause the prompt to appear on next runup when opening the file that was open, but when I saw it I was fairly certain it wasn't after an app close. Certainly one to keep an eye on, I'll dig around and see if I can find a way to reproduce it

Hi @anto, This is already logged with us, I've added this report to it as the recipe is slightly different to what is logged. Thanks for the report

These are all now logged with us, thanks!

We've found a recipe for a crash when clicking/dragging onto the layers panel, which can show itself in other ways too, so hopefully that should cover a good few of the crashes that we've seen in this thread. We should have this fixed in the next beta, so let us know if you still some of these crashes when we have that beta out, as I suspect there's more recipes to uncover from the behavior you've described. I'll keep poking

I've actually been able to reproduce a couple of crashes here, but am struggling to find a consistent recipe. I'll keep investigating. @Intuos5 If you do similar behavior on 2.4.1 did you ever get a crash? @Affinity-Inspiration To double check, have you been testing on Windows?

Unfortunately I'm struggling to get much from the crash report, as suggested above are you able to attach the file? Or upload it here if you'd prefer it to be private. If you let me know the areas you got the crash I'll have a look and see if I can reproduce anything

Are you able to upload any of the crash reports?

Thanks, I've not been able to reproduce any freeze with what was sent. Would it be possible to package the file up and send that to the same link?

@Pyanepsion You can use this link and it will confidential and only used for testing purposes.

This is correct, as a workaround for now, if you press enter after using the text field and then tick the regular expressions box it should avoid the crash

It looks like the apps are crashing when closing down. There was a recent issue where entering the export dialog and closing the app was causing this but that's fixed, so looks like this is something different. I'll get this logged, thanks for the report

Hi @soap, We export text out as splines, which AutoCAD will struggle to render correctly until you do a View > Regen All or perform the regenall command. The text not being exported out as text is currently by design.

Do you have any videos/files demonstrating this so we can look into it? Assuming this was exporting to DWG/DXF and then directly importing into CAD

I don't suppose you can remember if you had any of our other beta apps open when updating? The crash report seems to indicate that may have been the case, I'll see if I can reproduce it

Thanks for the report, I've passed this on. Seems to have been broken for a while and is specifically related to the outer shadow effect
