Random LO crashes
-
Occasionally LO will go apeshit on me. Most of the time it works very nicely but just occasionally it seems like nothing will work. this is pretty much the optimum way of driving one nuts since finding a pattern becomes very difficult.
However, it's been through this cycle enough time now that I think I can see the glimmerings of the root of the problem.
Typically I get blowups (often complete blowup with no crashlog let alone a bugsplat) when a view is rendering. Since many of my LO pages have multiple views it has sometimes been very tedious to work out which view is causing the problem. Sometimes things are easier if I turn off auto updating, sometimes not. In a few cases changing the style associted with the view seems to solve the problem.
In the most aggravating cases I've had to delete the view entirely and rebuild it, which of course means all the LO annotations and dimensions have to be redrawn at a considerable cost in time. Right now I have an LO file that simply won't load and render, should anyone want something to (perhaps) assist in debugging. Luckily I also have one that works so I can keep on with my project!

Tim - if you can send me the file, I'll take a look, fix it, and see if we can categorize it.
