Page Number Crash systematically

[dondiego]

When I try to insert the Page Number in a text box on a Master page (following the tutorial) this systematic behavior appears:

1. everything is ok if you don't change the size of the orientation of the text box
2. any time you try to change either the fonts size of the page number or the box orientation, the program crashes. 

Great job anyway!

Hi dondiego

I can't reproduce this I'm afraid it's working fine for me here without crashing. Are you getting this one a brand new document or are you only able to recreate it using a specific document?

If so can you provide the document at all?

Thanks

Thank you Chris.

Actually, I'm a bit astonished, because what I was able to reproduce several times, doesn't happen anymore.

In a nutshell, what happened was a loop (program "not responding" in the Task Manager) once I've inserted in the master page the text box with the page number. The loop started as soon as I tried to change the fonts inside the text box or the orientation of the box itself. After then, other strange behaviors started also in the copy/paste actions with text boxes in the body of the document (only partially text copied, then loop...).

So, I've frozen the "bad" doc and started a new document without page number on the Master page.  Everything was working fine.

Now, that I was going back to the "bad" doc to reproduce the loop and tell you something more, (un)fortunately the loop is disappered  (Morphy teaches...).

If you want I can send you the (ex)"bad" doc...

Sorry.

Many thanks
