Hi Walter, OK understood, sorry for jumping the gun. I've installed v18 on 3 XOs here all running release 8.2-767, resumed a whole bunch of old activities and created a range of new ones from clean. All loaded and displayed just fine, though I do note there now seems a very long delay on starting or resuming TurtleArt (~20sec or more) where I'm left looking at a half drawn toolbar and canvas as TurtleArt sorts it self out (pulsing launchwindow has finished). I erased TurtleArt-18 and used the control panel to 'update' to v10 (that's the version G1G1 points to). TurtleArt-10 does also pause momentarily at half drawn toolbar and canvas, but it's only for ~2 seconds. So there's quite a launch time regression with v18.
