Aleksandar Kovač Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Working with footnotes and sidenotes has been a crash-y experience. I believe there is a bug or two somewhere here. File attached consists of one text frame with 4 columns and some styled text on A4. In that file, I can reproduce the crash consistently by reducing the number of columns on the text frame. This file does not include any pinned images (or any images) so previously proposed workaround does not apply. There were some other user actions that resulted in crash, too, but I have not isolated them. E.g. tinkering with footnote’s gap before would crash Publisher, if I remember correctly. If anyone has some free time to verify if they get the same crash? Thank you! 2023-06-30 crash on footnotes.afpub Quote Alex Mac Mini M1, mac OS Sonoma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleksandar Kovač Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 Oh, here is another certain way to crash Publisher using the file attached before. For example, position cursor in the first column, at the note marker after the word ‘vivamus’ and try to delete this note. The result here is invariably – crash.

Hangman Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Hi @Aleksandar Kovač, I can certainly confirm the crash both when positioning the cursor in the first column, at the note marker after the word ‘vivamus’ and hitting the delete key and when reducing the number of columns. Publisher is crashing but isn't generating any crash reports.

Aleksandar Kovač Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 Thank you for verification on this and your time @Hangman, @Puck! I am adding a ‘bug’ tag on this. And starting to hope for a fix, because... notes. They’d be handy, right? Puck and Hangman 2 Quote Alex Mac Mini M1, mac OS Sonoma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've already posted in the Bugs forum. If/when Serif agrees that it's a bug, they will add the right tag.
