rubs Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Hi, 1.6.1.93 gives a crash similar to the ones I had before. The file is attached below. To reproduce it, zoom to around 10-15%, then try moving Artboard1 behind Artboard2 several times. If you try enough, you will get a crash.

Mark Ingram Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 How do you mean behind? On the layers control? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubs Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share Posted November 18, 2017 No, sorry, I wasn't clear enough. Just drag it around with the mouse so that it passes below the other artboard. Eventually you will get a crash. Mark Ingram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello rubs, I tried with your file and moved the lower artboard with different speeds and directions below the other one. No crash occured. Question: which tool is active while moving? I tried with both, the arrow ('V') and the artboard tool ('O'). d.

rubs Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 Hi Dominik, Just use the Move tool. Zoom to around 10% and you'll easily get a crash. Tested in two different machines, same results. See video below. digital 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dominik Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Hi rubs, intersting. I even switched my AD to Portugese language and tried to do it mostly the same way as you do. I do not get a crash. I append a screenrecording even though I am not very good at that and the video is blurred. BTW, how do you get an animated GIF screenrecording? Back to topic. There must be something else involved. Maybe it has to do with the graphics card or driver? FYI, I tried it at different zoom levels. d.

I have set in preferences the rendering option to my additional graphics adapter (NVIDIA). Once I switched to the integrated Intel HD Graphics chip I was able to reproduce the crash. The problem seems to be in some way related to the graphics chip (or it's driver). I think/hope this is in some way of value to the Affinity developers d.

Mark Ingram Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Thanks for the information everyone. I've managed to reproduce it here, using both Intel Integrated GPU and NVIDIA discrete GPU. Both crashes happened when the artboard wasn't underneath the other one, so I don't think it's anything to do with the positioning, it's just moving an artboard. rubs and Patrick Connor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubs Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share Posted November 20, 2017 I'm glad you reproduced it, Mark. My local setup is indeed Intel Graphics. The other one is a NVIDIA Quadro / Xeon, and it crashes too. P. S. You may have noticed the "phantom" white artboard while dragging. Probably unrelated, but you never know.

elk Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I thought that was a known issue since ages. Had some crashes last year and some days ago again (always fatal errors, had to restart whole system) on macmini and OSX 10.9.5. This occured by moving one of two artboards by an unwanted mousemove on it. Wondering if there is a bug fix in near future. Hope so. Love to work with artboards, but this way it is a bit horrible like in good old Mac OS 7 times.
