#498 Consistent crash
6 beta consistently crashes when typing a value into sharpening, brightness/contrast or black&white dialog before the preview image has loaded.
This is often the case using high res (600dpi full document scans) and wanting to make image adjustments - the preview in the adjustment dialog can take a long time (10+ seconds) to load. While this is happening the controls are still enabled, but if you type a value or start dragging the adjustment bars before this has loaded, naps2 will crash and terminate.
Steps to reproduce
- Load or scan a larg-ish image (600dpi+ full sized document, grayscale)
- Select a page and on the toolbar click Image -> Sharpen
- Before the preview image loads type a value eg 350 into the sharpening amount. You don't have to press OK for this error to occur, it happens after a short half second delay.
- If the preview came up too quickly to test this, apply the sharpening, and back from the main window select the same page again and click Image -> Sharpen a second time. This time the preview will take a long time to load and you can type into the dialog while it's loading.
Result: crash
Problem is not specific to Image -> Sharpen - I've had it happen with Image -> Brightness & Contrast, and Image -> Black and white.
Sorry, not sure what happened to bug title, it should have said "Consistent crash typing into image adjustment dialog before preview has loaded" or something to that effect.
