  • Two Mac issues with Finder, crash

Hello! I have two issues to report:

1) No finder windows called by Spine are able to navigate reliably. Double-clicking on a directory makes the Finder flash a few times and return to where it had just been. I am concerned that it may have something to do with my working directory being on an external volume, but that doesn't make much sense yet either. Spine is happy to navigate to some folders, but not others, and consistently.

2) null pointer crash when using Save As: Right click on any list item in the Folders pane. Here's the log:

Sorry for the troubles. I'm having trouble understanding how to reproduce the two issues. Could you give me a step by step list of actions I need to take to see the issue? Screenshots or a little video would help. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks for the video, that cleared it up.

Regarding the first issue, I couldn't reproduce it using a normal volume or an external volume. I see in your case the external volume is Dropbox, so I tried that as well, but that didn't produce the error either. We use the system file dialog, which is out of our control. Could you try the procedure in another application, e.g. a text editor, using the save as operation there?

Regarding the second issue, I was able to confirm the bug. I've opened an issue here Right clicking on favorite item in Save As dialog crashes · #230 · EsotericSoftware/spine-editor

Thanks for reporting!

Interesting. The system file dialogs implemented by other programs work fine. I tried Xcode, Photoshop, TextWranger, and Chrome. Spine is the odd one out. If you have any advice on how I can gather more information about this, I'm willing to try anything. I can't remember which previous versions of Spine did not have this issue.

That sounds very strange. Could the difference in navigating folders be attributed to the file dialog needing to choose a file (eg Save Project As) vs a folder (eg Export JSON)?
