Hi Andy

I was testing Adam's 5645 Nightly version with the scripting turned on.
I was not able to get it to crash, but I also was not able to find the
trigger for "Edit Line Segment Properties" dialog box. I was in Edge
Cuts layer. See parallel posting.

Another possibility - go into Mac Finder and look at all of the KiCad
components. Are the date and time about the same? I am seeing about
02:10 all on the same date (Today). If you have one or more with a
different date, then that is a clue to re-install the set from the dmg file.

Let me know how to trigger the "Edit Line Segment Properties" dialog box
and I will test what you did.

Hope this helps

Bob G

In OpenGL mode, it seems to get confused about menus, or something. It happens if I right-click to do something. I am not exactly sure what conditions cause it.
