Publisher is quite unstable


Recommended Posts

I am aware that this post is not very useful for you, because unfortunately it cannot be concrete enough:

I have the impression that the current version of the Publisher is relatively unstable. This can be seen from the relatively large number of crash reports in the forum and also from my own experiences.
There is not a day when the program does not crash at least once.  Unfortunately I couldn't find any definite causes so far. It can happen when saving, opening or other things.
Several times the screen became dark (without crash report), so I had to restart the whole system. Most of the time the program just freezes, so I have to quit it with the Tuskmanager.

To be honest, I can't imagine how you're going to solve this when the causes are so diverse and random. But I'm not a programmer. Maybe you can solve it. :35_thinking:

Could you give the beta version a try ans see if stability has been improved. Report any issue in the beta forum and we'll look into them for you. one tip save documents with history and this will help us recreate any issues.

Thank you Pauls!

  1. Can I use the beta for serious projects?
  2. Are the files compatible with future release versions?

I'll have to answer no to those questions. We'd like to address your stability issues in the first patch if possible.

Sorry, Paul, but I think that needs some clarification. Especially the "no" to the question:

I think that Michail was asking if .afpub files produced by the 1.7.2.422 beta are compatible with the upcoming 1.7.2 release version. I would have expected a "yes" answer, or a "yes, but it's possible they might not be". A definite "no" to that question seems odd.

Edit: And, actually, I'll question the "no" answer to Michail's first question, too. In the announcement post for the 1.7.2.422 Publisher Beta on Windows, AdamW said:

We recommend that you use this beta in preference to your store version if you are affected by any of the issues listed below.
