Description Simon80 2007-10-19 22:22:53 UTC

I have reproduced this crash, it happens sometimes when I click on one of the small thumbnails on the light table after adding an image.

Comment 2 Arnd Baecker 2007-10-19 22:27:18 UTC

Hi Simon,

there have been quite a few changes in the light-table code
in current svn. Would  it be possible for you to install the svn
version and see if the problem persists?
(At a first try I could not reproduce it ..)

Thanks a lot,

Arnd

Comment 3 Arnd Baecker 2007-11-05 10:10:55 UTC

Hi Simon,

I can't reproduce the problem with current svn (i.e. 0.9.3-beta2).
Could you maybe try that out and see if the problem persists?

Many thanks, Arnd

Comment 4 Simon80 2007-11-05 13:36:34 UTC

Sorry, but I'm having trouble reproducing it with the same version of Digikam that I reported this with, so I can't test it very well in the svn version.

Comment 5 Arnd Baecker 2007-11-05 14:14:30 UTC

Perfectly understandable ... ;-)
I remember that I did have occasional crashes with the ligth-table in 0.9.2,
but since then quite a bit has changed and I was not
able to create any crashes (and I did use the light-table a lot recently...).
So what about if we close this bug, keeping in mind
to re-open it anytime if there is a new crash with >0.9.2?
(Of course this does not necessarily mean that the bug is gone,
but if it only comes up so infrequently so that even you cannot reproduce it ;-),
it is essentially impossible to find the origin ...)

Comment 6 Simon80 2007-11-05 18:41:42 UTC

Indeed, that makes sense, and if I can't reproduce it anymore, it won't bother me ;)

When I first came across it, it was happening consistently with a group of pictures that I wanted to compare, to the point that I had to give up. However, I don't remember which ones they were, and I've moved my pictures to a different path since then.  I'm marking the bug as resolved.

I experience the same problem in 0.9.3 (kde 3.5.10, ubuntu binary packages)

It happens so often that it makes th elight table almost completely useless.

Comment 9 Andi Clemens 2008-10-10 00:12:20 UTC

This should be fixed in 0.9.4... this is the latest stable version of digiKam. Please try this version and report if the problem is still present.
