Try and draw in preview windows 8. Krita crash Actual Results: Krita crashes Expected Results: Krita will brush engine will work and not crash good luck
Hi Adam, Thanks for your report. I haven't heard of a problem like this before: it is likely specific to your system, I'm afraid. The specs look good and since you say it happens both if you run the 32 and the 64 bits version of Krita, and with opengl on and off, it's not likely to be related to your opengl driver. Wacom tablets also don't cause crashes like trust or peritab do. The CPU should be fine. Are you running any special security software such as sandboxie or non-standard virus checkers?
No everything really is kinda straight out of the box. Microsoft security for what its worth. I have trialed portables and installs as well. Any ideas where to start looking next? I would love to find it out and pass the knowledge on to you guys. I might do some digging around on the net tomorrow during lunch. Any suggestion would be great ;) I secretly kinda love this stuff, but only in downtime. Thanks
I'm really out of options to suggest -- well, have you tried to remove the kritarc file from AppData\Local\krita for 3.0? Do you maybe have access to another windows machine where you can test?
Awesome idea mate about the app data it worked But I had to do a complete Uninstalled Krita removed AppData/ Roaming/ Krita removed AppData/ Local/ Krita and so far so good. The strange thing is that the first time I open the krita drop down for the brushes they open up as squashed still. Know idea on where to start with that. Also a few version ago there was the option in the toolbar to remove names from any buttons that were added to the bar. this was an awesome feature an awesome feature because i had enough space on there to put all the animation icons thanks heaps mate
Alright, thanks for getting back to us!
