Description Eiko Yumi 2013-02-19 09:53:50 UTC
As of the latest build of Krita for Windows (2.6.8.5), opening a palette from the Add/Remove Palette dialog makes the program hang.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. From the menu bar, Settings>Dockers>Palette 
2. From the Palette docker, Add/Remove Colors
3. From the Add/Remove colors dialog, click the "Open Palette" Button
Actual Results:  
Krita irremediably hangs. The only way to regain control of it is to kill the process and restart the program, losing unsaved data.

Expected Results:  
The program shouldn't hang. If there's an error, it should notify so.

OS: Windows 8 Professional 64 bit

Hi Ecco,

Thanks for your report. It's a known issue, I'm afraid, one which we haven't had time to actually work on :-(
