Sarah NEW BUGs! I pasted text from rev to outlook and rev 2.7 crashes! Seeing if I could reproduce it I found 2 more bugs! And another with the clipboard not respecting html text colors. And the select all which doesn't work on first try! I averaged at least a crash a day Sarah. I entered 200 bugs of which 100 are still open (10% of opened bugs), some are months old and still unconfirmed, some are older than a year! 2.7 is a big step forward (and there's even an NT event!) but given the circumstances under which is see Rev crash by just pasting or double clicking text, something else is not tested or not tested right (no insult meant but are windows testers also windows users? Could a windows user test rightfully a mac application?). And given recent developments I can't even test in other windows environments I have at work! I don't use plugins (some of which don't "look" tested on windows btw). 2.6 didn't crash like this. I Install 2.7 and start loosing work again... that's not cool! And when I started to help the MC list, well, that's another story... But the result is clear cut on my side. I stand fully by Bob and Brian in the windows camp with almost their exact words. What 2.7 represents to me is that I have to go back review and update all my open bugzillas, I have to retest each stack again to make sure all is still ok. Save even more often than before. All worked finally great in 2.6... We're talking days of work to switch versions! And when 2.7.1 comes out, repeat again. Sorry, im fed up too - and to Kevin's greatest pleasure and unfortunately for those with questions in the mailist, it's past the point of no return. Xavier So long and thanks for all the stacks _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
