The new update is crashing the app when you apply tags

Title self-explanatory

Thank you very much for your report! Unfortunately I fail to reproduce the crash.

What I've tried is clicking on the green "no tags", adding some tags and either clicking the button "OK" or pressing the ENTER key. I've also tried from the grid's left menu. Finally I've tested the tag filter.

Do you have a Mac or a PC? (I've tested on PC)

Do you do something differently? Have you been able to make the app crash several times?

[Skavau]

I have a PC.

Yes, I've done it many times. The tag filter still works. It just freezes when I add new tags.

Okay, so if I add tags when searching "Movie Title Search" - it works. If I add them from the "Movie Filtered Search" it seizes up.

Seize up? So it's a freeze, not a crash?

From what you describe, it seems that you're tagging using the right click menu, aren't you? For me it works fine most of the time, but I've indeed managed to get a freeze.

I've made the needed adjustment to fix the bug I've encountered, please test this modified exe and tell me if it works better for you too:

Yes, seems to work now with the amended exe

UPDATE - it froze on me again

It seems to be related to some of the filters being active. When I have no filters active, it doesn't crash. When I have some active - it does.

UPDATE: It seems to do with when you have a tag filter set up.

Thankfully you've been able to narrow the bug down

Here's the fixed version:

Confirm. Works now. Thanks

UPDATE: A similar thing happens when you add a plot to "MyPlot". Program freezes. Not sure if it's related to the tag filter being active.

UPDATE: Also does it from the "Movie Title Search" so it seems a universal thing.

Thank you very much, here's the fixed version:

I've done big changes in the background, in preparation for an upcoming feature. Sorry it's causing so much trouble, I did try my best to get rid of all the bugs before the release, but completely forgot to test MyPlot

[Skavau]

Confirm - now works.

Assuming it's a related problem - using the latest exe from this thread, I'm still getting freezes when I change the 'ordered' status with the button, when filtered by 'ordered'. It seems to be ok in other views (all movies, owned movies both appear to be fine). Yesterday I was also getting freezes when changing the 'wished' status, I think within the 'wished' view though not completely sure.

(the status does change, when you restart the program the change has occurred, although you do have to restart the pc to get back into coollector, otherwise the coollection file is locked)

Thanks,

Edited to add - changing the ordered status with the 'wished' filter in place can also lock it up.

Thank you very much!

I was preparing to release a new version. It will include this fix too. The update should be available in a couple of hours.

Version 4.20.6 is now released, with all the freezing bugs fixed (hopefully).
