I found the<br>> cause of the crash being that ktechlab had been running multiple<br>> nested qt event loops, and when a drag event has been started in an<br>> "outside" event loop, and that drag event has been finished in an<br>> "inside" event loop, then the "outside" event loop would get confused<br>> and crash. The "critical" timing has been finishing a drag under<br>> 300ms. I'm expecting this crash to be fixed, but if somebody manages<br>> to reproduce it, please let me know.<br>> - Fixed the build on ubuntu 14.04, 64 bit, and hopefully for other 64<br>> bit systems, too.<br>> <br>> Known issues (partially re-editing Claus' previous post from this thread):<br>> <br>> - on circuit document closing, ktechlab leaks memory, in order to avoid crashes<br>> <br>> -The orientation icons are broken; the graphics are scrambled, but<br>> reorienting components works.<br>> -There are some other gfx glitches. These are caused by the Qt3<br>> compatible code, which tries to paint on widgets outside of their<br>> paintEvent(), and this behavior is not accepted anymore in Qt4 (and<br>> Qt5) thus garbage appears on the screen. Also scrolling on the main<br>> canvas produces garbage graphics. The fix is to move all painting code<br>> inside the paint event, and if repainting is needed, then just send a<br>> repaint event.<br>> <br>> - the color-picker for LEDs (in toolbar and item editor) is really tiny.<br>> - 'Scope works well, but doesn't clear 'lines' from other circuits<br>> when they are closed. (Y-axis scale would be nice)<br>> -The program uses 100% of cpu all the time.<br>> -I think the 'scope just keeps filling data points into RAM, because<br>> RAM usage climbs steadily until the virtual machine crashes (same as<br>> the kde3 version)<br>> <br>> <br>> Any feedback is welcome,<br>> <br>> Zoltan<br>> <br>> <br>> 2015-07-04 23:34 GMT+03:00 Zoltan Padrah <zoltan.padrah@gmail.com>:<br>> > Hi,<br>> ><br>> > I've pushed a new update to the github repository:<br>> ><br>> > https://github.com/ktechlab/ktechlab-0.3/commits/port-0.3.8-kde4-v1<br>> ><br>> ><br>> > - It should fix the issue with the multiplying values of the<br>> > components; now setting components' properties should work correctly.<br>> > - Also now the simulation should be pausable.<br>> > - Deleting components with the delete key should work now.
