I did some experiments today and I found that if I run kstars from the command line or in a debugger, the find dialog works fine, but when running the app by double clicking it crashes when you first access the find dialog. This seems to me to indicate an environment issue, like maybe an issue with environment variables or maybe a link to a library that isn’t properly in the app. I will check further.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thanks,</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Rob</div></div><div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space" class=""><div class=""><div class=""><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Aug 13, 2022, at 6:09 AM, John Evans <<a href="mailto:john.e.evans.email@gmail.com" target="_blank" class="">john.e.evans.email@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class="">I have the same problem with 3.6.0.

Has anyone else experienced an immediate crash when searching for objects on a Mac using the Apple-f key combination?<br class="">
I can confirm that it has worked in the past without a crash. Neither Ctrl-f, nor selecting it from the menu appears to work for me at this time. <br class="">
The Crash trace is appended in the zip if anyone wants to have a look.<br class="">

I made several changes to the Find Dialog in the most recent version, notably performing asynchronous database queries through another thread. It never crashed on my Linux system. Also curious if someone else can reproduce it on MacOS or if it is unique to your system.</div><div dir="auto" class=""><br class=""></div><div dir="auto" class="">Regards</div><div dir="auto" class="">Akarsh</div><div dir="auto" class=""><br class=""></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204)"><br class="">
