1.134 crashes when importing image for pattern

[dominulus]

In the new upgrade, every time I attempt to save a png file into patterns, the program crashes, disappears.

Any ideas?

[dominulus]

Trashed program, downloaded again and reinstalled.
Still crashes with image import.

[dominulus]

Rebooted, attempted to import old images that were already in pattern favorites from version 1.131.
Still crashes.
Hmmm

[Jeff_Birt]

Explain step by step how you are attempting to import the images.

[bjbethke]

I get an error when I try to import an image on version 1.134.

When I select an image and request OPEN with GUI (Photo 1) I get an error message (photo 2 & 3)

With version 1.132 the image would import to the Pattern Editor. With Version 1.134 it tries to load in the Designer and gives me this error.

I need to launch the Pattern Editor to import the image into the PE, I can make it work, but it takes three extra steps to do that.

I’m using Windows XP Pro

dominulus: that is a very good report. I don't have a Mac to try it on but I'll pass it on to the SW guys.

Anyone else with a Mac having this problem?


bjbethke: I think this is an unintended result of the new layout of the file menu. It was a bit unorthodox from the beginning as the typical (to most graphics programs) functions of 'Open' & 'Import' , 'Save' & 'Save a copy As' were muddled together. So let's say you used 'Open' to open an image, when you saved it it would not save as an image, but rather as a PTN, MPW etc. I'll pass this along to the SW guys and see what can be done.

[dominulus]

Thanks Jeff,

I've imported that image successfully into 1.131, saved it,
and then opened the saved file into 1.134 with no problem
(the image is then in the pattern library),
but if I try to import that same image again into the pattern library
of 1.134, it's still crashing.

[Jeff_Birt]

There have been a few weird Mac related things recently that the SW guys are working on. I think having a good error report like you provided helps a lot.

[Steven Alford]

Is this problem only related to the Mac, or is there anyone experiencing this on a PC?

[eharsin21]

I have vista and can't import anything since I downloaded new version. What is the fix?:(:confused:

[eharsin21]

I see where this problem still doesn't have a "FIX" posted. Can anyone suggest how to fix this problem?

[jcorder]

I just tried to import a picture into designer and it worked ok, I am using Vista 32 bit.

Jeff

[Jeff_Birt]

OK. Can you be more specific? What does it do or not do. What exact steps are you taking when you try to import something?

[liquidguitars]

Your favorites.mpn could be bad.. as a test remove any *.mpn's in c:/user/carvewright/ to a new directory in the root and start Designer.
You now should be able to save your new images Ptn's ect.. however you will not be able to use your old favorites if you do this.

[cmorlier]

I believe we have resolved the problem in 1.150. I am unable to reproduce the Mac problem on 1.150.

LG's suggestion may be something to try for both Mac and Vista if 1.150 doesn't resolve the issue.

bjbethke: We had never intended that opening image files the way you did, since they are not "native" CarveWright files. As a result, we recommend the File->Import approach. Is there a use case where being able open this way is a significant advantage? One new feature in 1.150 is that we remember the last used directory separately based on the types of file, so when you try to import an image it should go back to the same directory you last imported an image from.

Cmorlier,

Ever since I had the Pattern Editor – up until version 1.132 I could select an Image and request Open with GUI, (I use Windows XP)
This worked great for me.
Since the last two versions 1.134 and 1.151 I get an error. And it does not open the pattern Editor, it opens in designer.
I can open the Pattern editor and select Import image, but by then the file that image was located is lost; I need to find the image again.

I made a work around by making a special Image folder to find the images when I need them. I have thousands of images stored on CD’s, SD’s and four or five other hard drives.

I very seldom Import images directly into the image designer function. 99% of the time I use the pattern editor to make my patterns.

It would be a very great help to open the images into the Pattern Editor or open them in the designer. It’s all about choices.

I like the way it was set up in the early versions.

Thanks BJB

Mine was doing the same thing. I finally did a factory reinstall after working with Alex and also HP. once the install was done the problems came back when I attempted to recover my back up files for My Favorite. I had to wipe and reinstall a 2nd time still don't know what the issue was
