Re: Having major Livecode problems

Ditto all your issues here… mysterious… one thing seems to have helped and that 
is to set all stacks to

destroyStack
destroyWindow

on close.

I believe this is the same as choosing "Close and removed from memory"  
Although even now, occasionally I get the "stack XYZ is open do you want to 
purge" even though I *did* close that stack and removed it from memory.

At any rate, it seems to help when working with many stacks, the ones you are 
not using are indeed not in memory. After setting this for ever and any stack I 
open/create, my crashes started to go down…

Things got better for a while, and now I am back to having Livecode crash
constantly, but again, just on 2 of my 3 computers. (Unfortunately it's the
2 that I am working on most often.)

I've started at least getting some crash reports, so i started putting them
into a ticket, but these crashes can come as often as every 5 minutes, so I
keep losing a lot of work.

Deleteing my prefs file definitely helps short term, but besides being a
pain it is only temporary.

I also don't have anything to help pinpoint why it is happening. This
morning, Livecode has crashed on me 6 times, and it happened (in order)
when:
-switching from "Point" to "Browse" via clicking the tools palette
-(in browse mode) deleting a field off a card
-switching from "Browse" to "Point" via shortcut (Command-Option-Tab)
-(in browse mode) opening the property window of a navbar widget
-(in point mode) clicking on a button which was supposed to send me to a
different card
-while editing a script I right clicked on a command and chose "Go to
definition" (which was on the stack script)

Did you happen to save the preference files? Creating a bug report with them 
attached would be helpful.

Cheers

Did you check for differences of the LC-prefs files?

They are in /Users/pink/Library/Preferences/RunRev
and probably not 'synced'.

Having major Livecode problems

2016-07-01 Thread pink
I have three computers (an iMac, a Mac Mini, a Macbook Air) which I use for
programming.

I started having major problems with Livecode on 2 of the 3 computers,
regardless of whether I'm using 8.0.0, 8.0.1 or one of the developmental
releases.
-Random and frequent crashes (with no crash report displayed)
-Project manager doesn't work correctly if there are groups on a card
-System will randomly lock up when switching cards and give me a spinning
beachball of death

But on the 3rd computer, everything works fine. All 3 computers have the
same plugins/extensions etc... I've also tried removing all extensions and
plugins, and I still have issues. The "My Livecode" folder is synced in
Dropbox.

I would like to think at this point, that it's me and something going on my
computer... so what do I need to do to wipe off all current traces of
Livecode and start fresh?
