Hi Taku33,

Thanks for the file - do you have any idea what you did with the Symbol? I have a feeling it could have a copy of itself inside, and when expanded is causing the application to get stuck in a loop. I will get it passed on to development.

Exporting it to PDF/X-4 and opening in AD again shows only need layers / curves. What is funny about the PDF is the fact, that all elements are now rotated with 180°.

EDIT: When you detach the symbol, there is no crash and the layers are still simple and not doubled.
