Crash to Desktop after
GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · comments
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a document with many large embedded images (> ~ 30 MB)
2. Perform actions on the page with embedded images, e.g. moving around text
boxes, selecting images, grouping images, etc. It is difficult to predict when,
but the application invariably crashes.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The application crashes to desktop without warning or error. I expect the
application to not crash to desktop.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v2.0.3 on Windows 7 x86, from PortableApps because the official Evolus build
would not install due to corporate restrictions on my work pC. I will verify
the behaviour on the official build at home tonight and update the issue.
Please provide any additional information below.
The issue is not present when images are linked only. I admit that 30 MB is a
lot of image to embed in a document, but it is insignificant compared to my
available RAM (> 1 GB). Furthermore, the images could be compressed to save
space and improve responsiveness of Pencil's UI, since my images are scaled
down far below their original resolutions.

I just noticed that my images are nowhere near 30 MB. Combined, they would all
be less than 2 MB. It appears that Pencil is converting the JPG images to raw
bitmaps, resulting in huge filesizes, which probably causes an overflow
somewhere. I recommend this also be remedied. Again, I have to verify this
behaviour on "stock" Evolus Pencil tonight on my home PC.
