Description janina.valentine 2006-07-21 13:29:56 UTC
Somewhere between version 0.94 and 0.95-1 the following feature has been added: You can connect the end points of lines to the 'center' of any object, and the line will end nicely at the bounding box of that object, pointing towards its center.

When trying to connect both end points of an arc in that way to the center of the same object (tested with misc/file and network/storage), dia crashes (more precisely it becomes unresponsive).

Windows XP Prof. SP2, Dia 0.95-1

It would appear Windows is more sensitive to whatever it is happens when a circle becomes a full 360 degrees (by having the startpoint and endpoint in the same spot).  Because circle objects aren't shortened when pointing to a midpoint (for reasons, I think, of other special cases happening), they hit that case, which there is no good handling for -- on Linux it behaves strangely, though without crashing.
