Frequent crashes when closing tabs

Jeff Griffin

I've noticed AC25 crashing frequently when closing any tabs (including Action Center) since updating to macOS Monterey v12.3 yesterday. The only way I've found to reduce (but not eliminate) the crashing is to go to a plan view and then use Window > Close All Other Tabs and Windows. I've tried opening my PLN with the repair option as well as cleaning my preferences but neither of these approaches have helped. I've submitted a bug report with every single crash. Here's the latest Bug ID: AC25-2022-03-15-12-13-27-8871

 

Any suggestions?

AC24 (on macOS Monterey 12.3) also crashes when closing tabs. So, in essence, the only two versions of Archicad that were compatible with macOS Monterey are now buggy after the 12.3 macOS update.

Same problem here.

What a mess these yearly updates from Apple and Graphisoft have become.

Workaround: Don't click on the closing "X". Don't hover over the closing "X". Use menu command "Close All Other Tabs and Windows" (as stated in initial post). Use Command-3, Command-2 etc. to change tabs.

ARCHICAD since 4.55 | macOS current | AC 26 current

Or turn the tab bar off completely?

That way you can't accidentally click any of the tabs.

Then either unlock the view windows and arrange them as you want, or use the WINDOWS menu to select the view you want.

Old school might be the best way for now.

Interesting. I hadn't noticed that hovering cursor over the closing X also caused a crash.

 

Great suggestion Barry. Thank you. I'll give that a try. (Windows menu > Hide Tab Bar)
