SOLVED Crashing with Scramble Screen/Black Screen



  • Robofont is crashing/freezing every time I open my latest file and showing one of the two types of screens I snapped below (all black or everything scrambled).

    Restarting Robofont and restarting my computer isn't helping. I can run other Robofont files right now, but I ran into this same problem a couple times last week with different files. In that case, it seemed to resolve when I upgraded my operating system.

    Any ideas for how I can get this file working long enough to salvage the progress I've made and copy characters into a new file? Any ideas about why these crashes keep happening?

    this is fixed in the beta. I can send you a beta so you can work in Single Window mode.

    thanks

    and does this happens in when disabling Single Window Mode in the prefs?

    some users reported issues only in Single Window mode.

    thanks

    oh, not nice, unless you are drawing a super big black font!!!

    could you send me the robofont-3-py3.log file, off list at frederik@robofont.com?

    you will find the file in <user>/Library/Application Support/RoboFont

    thanks
