Found a more serious bug during my testing in scriptwriting mode.
I have created three folder levels (Act/Sequence/Scenes) and added some text elements (scenes)formatted for scriptwriting mode. I go to the text element, add some text. If I then click on ‘X’ to close scriv, the text disappears and the text screen goes gray. Scriv fails to close. After this if I click on the parent folder, the text reappears in the text view at this level. I go to File -> Quit and scriv closes.
The next time I start scriv and go to ANY Folder then switch from index card to text view, scriv crashes with a ‘Scrivener.exe has stopped working…’ error. At this point the project is corrupt and not recoverable as far as I have tested…
I am running WIn7 x64 on a Quad Core motherboard with 8GB RAM and the 1.3 beta. The only other app running is Internet Explorer…
The behaviour of the above issue changes depending on whether the Project is brand new or created by a previous beta version.
A new project still exhibits the ‘shifting text’ and fails to close via the ‘X’ (Close Program) button but on a restart, a message is displayed saying the file is already open on another computer after which it appears to open and operate correctly - until I add another text element and try to close the program again via ‘x’.
This does not appear to occur in the normal (non-scriptwriting) mode and the program closes correctly.
I can only reproduce the the gray screen after clicking the red ‘x’ - so that’s a bug, but I can’t crash Scrivener by following your instructions either for a new or existing project. I will look into this more. Thank you
