now in the bugtracker, id 2998579 opening the help file for the [sel] object is one way to recreate this crash. but sel is not the only object
the patch you sent in feb with the [multiselect] object removed from the "related objects" subpatch does not solve the problem. i do have (indirect, thought regular) access to several machines that run vista and/or windows7 for at least another month and could help in testing/debugging. rene On May 07, 2010, at 21:41, Hans-Christoph Steiner wrote: > > I'd like to get this stuff working on Windows 7 too, but I currently don't > have access to a Windows 7 machine.
