Crash when using Colours->Curves tool on a new image without menu selection
Last modified: 2009-04-18 09:33:01 UTC
Steps to reproduce: I was doing colour correction on about a dozen images. 1. Open up image. Select Colours->Curves menu tool, do colour correction, and Save_As to save the corrected image. Close the image. 2. Drag another image on GIMP main window. Selected tool is the one from Colours->Curves. Clicking on image opens up Colour Curves dialog. Do colour correction, and Save As and close the image. 3. Same as step 2 except clicking on the image with the Colour Curves tool crashes GIMP. This crash usually happened like this, in some cases it took a few more images, not sure if it was because I may have used the healing brush on some images. I got the following from the Microsoft dialog that say GIMP has stopped working.

The above recipe for crashing GIMP 2.6.4 didn't crash GIMP immediately, however it DID crash when I clicked the close box on the main GIMP window. THis was the 2.6.6. crash from the Windows "GIMP has stopped working" dialog: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: gimp-2.6.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 49c4317f Fault Module Name: ntdll.dll Fault Module Version: 6.0.6001.18000 Fault Module Timestamp: 4791a783 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 0002f897 OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID: 4105 Additional Information 1: fd00 Additional Information 2: ea6f5fe8924aaa756324d57f87834160 Additional Information 3: fd00 Additional Information 4: ea6f5fe8924aaa756324d57f87834160 Read our privacy statement: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=50163&clcid=0x0409 Stack trace: Other information: I have Vista x64 with 8 GB mem and quad core, in case it matters. GIMP is a great tool. Thank you.
I just had another crash with GIMP 2.6.6. I did colour correction with Colours->Curves. Did Undo/redo (^Z, ^Y) a couple of times to compare, then did Save As, changed the file name, used the down arrow key to improve the JPEG quality to 90, then hit return to Save/close the dialog, then GIMP crashed on me. I checked and the new jpg file was created. This was the message from Windows: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: gimp-2.6.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 49c4317f Fault Module Name: ntdll.dll Fault Module Version: 6.0.6001.18000 Fault Module Timestamp: 4791a783 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 0002f897 OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID: 4105 Additional Information 1: fd00 Additional Information 2: ea6f5fe8924aaa756324d57f87834160 Additional Information 3: fd00 Additional Information 4: ea6f5fe8924aaa756324d57f87834160
Please note the steps mentioned above re: the crash for GIMP 2.6.6 is 100% repeatable for me. Here's another one today: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: gimp-2.6.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 49c4317f Fault Module Name: ntdll.dll Fault Module Version: 6.0.6001.18000 Fault Module Timestamp: 4791a783 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 0002f897 OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID: 4105 Additional Information 1: fd00 Additional Information 2: ea6f5fe8924aaa756324d57f87834160 Additional Information 3: fd00 Additional Information 4: ea6f5fe8924aaa756324d57f87834160 Hmmm, 2.6.4 was more stable for me than 2.6.6.
