Dear list, it has emerged that there is a problem with Cairo 1.10.2-r1 and Xournal++ that, at least on this system, causes Xournal to frequently freeze unrecoverably when using any selection tool and selecting more than a few strokes.
If further info is required please ask so publicly, Andreas can you provide you with more technical details, I'm merely the person who ran into it. It turned out that downgrading to 1.8.10 solved that problem with freezes but, so I think to have confirmed by now, comes with performance issues: Often, making strokes or erasing is delayed by up to one second before visual effects can be seen. I switched between the two versions 1.8.10 and 1.10.2-r1 a few times and think that I can by now conclude that 1.10.2-r1 freezes upon selecting 1.8.10 causes performance to degrade At first, I'd like those with the specific cairo versions to provide feedback to the list whether you can confirm any of the above behaviour or possibly reproduce it by changing your version. Then, not to mention, we all would be happy if someone could think of the cause for that problem (especially the freeze in 1.10.2, of course) and how fix it or how to tell the cairo-guys about it in usable detail. kindly, a fellow X++ user ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What Every C/C++ and Fortran developer Should Know!
