Thanks for the feedback, Derek!

1. I get an Error 400 when trying for a flowchart of a monster stack with 180+ 
handlers with many interdependencies. This seems to be due to exceeding the 
upper limit of what the Mermaid/Kroki services can handle in therms of ”edges”. 
The graph is simply too complex. Try excluding substacks, or excluding handlers 
by adding them to the handler exclusion filter field, to reduce ”uninteresting” 
complexity.
(I tend to exclude mouse*, and commands/functions that are called many times 
put only do simple things like adding quotes, or utf conversion or something.) 

The "Group per handler host” feature adds complexity to the graph, so using 
that could also tip it over the error threshold. 
Unfortunately, the error message passed back from Mermaid/Kroki is not very 
enlightening. 

2. I realise that I have not put in any error catching for the case where the 
user has not yet chosen a save file destination. Try opening the flowchart 
settings pane (which should already set a default save path if empty) and click 
the folder icon to make an active choice. If it still doesn’t work for you then 
it might be a Linux issue, which unfortunately I’m unable to test.

3. Hmm, I don’t usually use any gray texts. All texts are black, except for a 
few big buttons that have ”midnight blue” text, which is also the colour of 
most of the icons. Is something happening to the UI on Linux? It would be 
interesting to see a screenshot of how it looks for you.

Here’s a screenshot of part of the UI, posted in the LC forum, that shows how 
it looks on Mac and Windows:

Best,
