Hello~
I'm very frustrated. Draw keeps crashing on me. I'm using X6 with all updates installed. I have a new computer with 8GB RAM and OS Windows 7. I realize that Win 8 is being pushed as the "only valid" operating system. Could my preference for using Windows 7 be the cause of the crashing? Personally, I don't like Window 8 or do I like being forced to use a product I don't care for.
With that said, any suggestions to alleviate my frustration?
Thanks,
Patty
It's important to state when these crashes occur and can they easily be recreated.
Press F8 at program startup to reset workspace.
Rename the AppData folder by adding .new to the folder name.
Thank you both for your replies...
The crashing hapens when I use the artist media and pen tools. I'm working this horse. The mane is made of bitmap and artistic media brushes. Do you see a reason why this is happening based on the pic? I clean my computer's files often.
How is X7 working for you both?
Beautiful image Patty.
Thank you Graewerld~I'm getting close to being finished.
I just don't understand why the crashes are happening. It must have something to do with the artistic and pen tools.
Save, save save..that is for sure:)
Save and make copies. I have had X6 crash on save and destroy the whole file leaving me with a blank page. I've had it just crash and do the same thing as well. I don't know what triggers this behaviour but on critical documents I'll make backups and copies using Windows and not trust CorelDraw.
