Hi everybody, I have this problem also. I see a few bug reports that are probably related: The gibberish characters and the hanging / crashing application. I encounter it about once a day now. The bug usually bites when I open a new file. Also, I suspect that it only happens when the tabstrip expands to an extra line in doing so. The tabstrip has about 9 lines already, and it could be that the number of lines in the tabstrip has something to do with it.
