I have also noticed problems with updating osgText::Text objects in the wrong stage of traversal. I think this has something to do with threading. Are you crashing in the osgText::Text::computePositions()? I dealt with this issue about 3 months ago, and I was able to resolve it by moving the text string update of my osgText::Text object into a osg::Drawable::UpdateCallback object. I think the crash happens because one thread is updating the text (re-computing glyphs) while another one is trying to render them.
... Robert just beat me to the punch. Running single threaded should also resolve the issue.

Ah ok, bit of a follow up to that, the crash doesn't occur when updating the position of the slider, but when it updates an osgText::Text object using ->setText(string); It will do it a few times and seems to crash intermittently if I change it too often. Any thoughts? ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Kim C Bale Sent: Mon 25/02/2008 14:53 To: [email protected] Subject: [osg-users] Updating node position in event handler. I have written a small set of user ortho 2d interface classes one of which includes a slider bar control. I detect the intersection with the slider's geometry to check the mouse has a hold of it and then update it's position based on the coordinates I get from the event handlers 'drag' event. The problem is that when I update the positionattitudetransform of the slider geometry with the coordinates of the mouse from the event handler i get a crash. I have a feeling that it is because I am trying to update the position in Drag event during the event traversal. Is it it correct to assume that you should only update transformations, geometry etc when in the update traversal? If so how can I ensure that these changes are made in the update traversal and not in the event loop? My apologies for this rather vague description, hopefully someone will see what I'm getting at. Cheers, Kim.
