 5.5 did it, too.


I have seen this as well.  I do the following:

1.  Command - period sometimes works.  Interesting that it sometimes brings me 
to a secured front script that belongs to Scott Rossi's themes.
2.  Click the desktop and back sometimes feels like it works
3. Wait about 2 minutes for it to come back
4. Remember that you save after every line of code and just force quit to get 
back to work

I have noticed this behavior since version 5 came out.  Many have seen this 
elusive behavior.  It is difficult to make a recipe for this though.

I tend to alternate between those two, either force-quitting or just
staring out the window for a couple of minutes and reconnecting with
the outside world. My guess is that some kind of garbage collection is
going on and that the mechanism changed with LC 5.x

 Was the dictionary open? Maybe that old user-notes bug came back?

It is uncommon for me *not* to have the dictionary open . . .

OK, now I just got it after saving, removing from memory, and
reloading . . . and it looks like the system, load spiked (red on mac)
for a bit too, before it went all green (user)

I can watch the spiked load pass from core to core, though.

If the debugger is to be trusted (and it shouldn't have launched!), it
is in a ck, which is a trivial function that puts its argument after
a field in a stack for me to watch (created because there is no
messagebox in the standalones, and to give me a longer list).

The next line is a breakpoint.

It hasn't just gone away; it's just plain hung.

Off to forcequit . . .

Try keeping the dictionary closed for a while and see if it still 
happens. That may narrow down the cause one way or the other.

hmmm... What version of LC? And have you tried removing all your plugins to 
another folder temporarily then restarting LC to see if it helps? Also, when 
this happens, try holding down the escape key. I've had issues where something 
has hung in one of the IDE stacks. That will usually free it up.

 What is going on here?
 
 Does the IDE belong to a union or some such? :)

5.5 did it, too.

I'm still plugin free :)

 Also, when this happens, try holding down the escape key. I've had issues 
 where something
has hung in one of the IDE stacks. That will usually free it up.

I'll try that next time.

Sometimes there is a full cpu load when this happens, and sometimes not.

If I have a recursion or similar problem, it sends a message, doesn't
it?  (i think i got that a few weeks ago--just because two controls
were trying to set to the value of the other based upon their own . .

 Yeah sounds like recursion to me.

Yeah,  but . . .

Sometimes this happens while I'm in the editor and save . . .

Hmmm. I don't remember. I'm just glad it came back to life. I fixed
the typo end ig - end if, saved my work, escaped, and lived to tell
the tale.
