Description Ben Lewis 2012-05-08 10:32:08 UTC

If the "shared axis box" icon is used on a plot that is already shared Kst will crash.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Start a new Kst session
Create two empty plots
Link the two plots by clicking on the “shared axis box” icon and sweeping the mouse over the two plots
Click on the “shared axis box” icon again
Click on one of the two shared axis plots. Kst will crash.

Actual Results:  
Kst crashes

Expected Results:  
Nothing should happen... or maybe the linked plots should be decoupled.

Kst runs into a endless loop within Qt, see back trace.

Comment 3 Peter Kümmel 2012-05-08 19:03:19 UTC

Same with 2.0.5-rc4 on Windows.
A single click into the already shared plots is enough to make Kst hang and eating one cpu core.
