Oh no I have a bug!

Post by brucet »

OK it's PSPx7 and I realise x8 is the new version. But has anyone with x7 or x8 experienced the following.

I have a 500 meg PSPImage file. 6 layers. I'm working on one layer with the Clone tool. I then switch to the Smudge tool to do some tidying up. Same layer. As soon as I change tools my clone work disappears. But if I do a zoom of any type it reappears! I can then continue working. This seems to be a random hickup. Happens about 50% of the time.

Not a life ending bug but a pain in the butt when work vanishes only to reappear later.

Yes, this was one of PSPX7's annoying bugs. No real rhyme or reason was found that I know of. Do you have all three service packs installed? If so nothing I can tell you but keep doing what you do.

Yup got all the service packs installed. All I know is that a quick zoom in or about wakes it up again. As long as everyone who encounters the 'bug' knows how to work around it.
