Hi,
I encountered a crash of LyX when clicking on the white space below
all items in the widget on the left side of the Tools->Preferences
dialog. My system is : SVN revision 26036 on Windows XP compiled with
MSVC2008.
It appears that item in the code below is a null-pointer when doing so.
void PanelStack::switchPanel(QTreeWidgetItem * item,
QTreeWidgetItem * previous)
{
if (item->childCount() > 0)
...
}
The patch just adds a
if( !item )
return;
to the code and makes the user interface of the panel stack somewhat
more intuitive (as it was in previous versions).
Does this bug occur on other platforms as well ?
I don't see this on Linux, but the patch looks like a potentially
worthwhile safety measure.
Abdel, you have a view? Can you reproduce?
No, that is a weird bug... surely something else happens earlier. The
patch is not harmful but it will hide a real bug so I'd prefer an
assertion in order to have a backtrace.
