Labplot crashes instantly with a `Segmentation fault` when attempting to change a plot's axis scale from "Linear" to "Log10" or any other value. The crash occurs immediately upon clicking the new scale type in the dropdown menu.

1. Application and System Details

  * Application: Labplot
  * Version: 2.12.0 (from crash log)
  * Operating System: macOS 14.2.1 (23C71)
  * Architecture: ARM-64 (Apple Silicon)

-----

2. Steps to Reproduce

1.  Launch Labplot on macOS.
2.  Create a new spreadsheet.
3.  Copy a column of X-values from an external source (e.g., Excel) and paste them into a spreadsheet column.
4.  Copy a column of Y-values and paste them into another spreadsheet column.
5.  Create a plot from these two columns.
6.  Go to the plot's properties/settings area.
7.  Locate the X-axis or Y-axis scale settings.
8.  Untick the "Auto" setting for the scale.
9.  Click the dropdown menu that currently shows "Linear".
10. Click on any other scale option (e.g., "Log10").

-----

 3. Expected Behavior

The plot's axis scale should change to the newly selected option (e.g., Log10), and the plot should update.

-----

 4. Actual Behavior

The Labplot application crashes instantly and closes. This behavior is 100% reproducible.

-----

 5. Crash Details and Backtrace

The crash is an `EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)` due to a `KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000008`. This suggests the code is trying to access data from a null pointer (specifically, at an offset of 8 bytes from address 0).

The crash happens in the main thread while processing events related to the `QComboBox` (the dropdown menu).
