Repeatable Crash on iMac

Mike Binks

Presentation Team – Rev'd Mike Binks

Church Group – Corby St Ninian's

Presentation – 210418 Rev'd Mike Luke 24:36b-48

Constant Crash on iMac. 11.2.3
Proclaim 3.1.0060

The crashes started after I had begun doing bulk colour changes to the text in the 'Notices' section using the colour picker to match the colour of the heading. All the notices slides were selected. I had moved the colour picker off the Proclaim window so that it was sitting on the desktop to one side.

I have restarted the computer.

I have duplicated the presentation (how do you tell which the duplicate is?)

The crash does not occur on my MacBook Pro running the same versions of the software.

Update – the crash stopped happening once I closed the colour picker.

Below is the crash report.

Please advise.

It does seem that the crash is triggered by the colour picker and may well be due to moving the colour picker to a position on the desktop.

The Proclaim 'Colour Picker' is similar to this. I was using the 'eye dropper' to match colours.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the report. I looked into this a bit, and while I can't get the crash with the picker outside the bounds of the app, I do get into a strange state where the color picker is the only thing I can control with regards to Proclaim. The app doesn't crash or hang, just goes unresponsive.

As long as I keep the picker inside the bounds of the app, everything works fine.

Thanks again for the report, I've made a case to address this.

Thanks Brandon

I just tried it again this evening without a problem. I'll let you know if it rears its ugly head again.

It just reared its ugly head again.

This time as I was using the colour picker (droplet) to pick up a colour from one slide and transfer it to a new slide.

I sent logs yesterday via the programme.
