Emmanuel,

I always use the installed version, that´s the 881 byte file.

The installers versions still use Java 6 (information shown in About dialog), but it would be astonishing that it could provoke a bad interaction with Java 7 installed in the system. I'll check...

Emmanuel,

The webstart version opens every file I try without problems.

Thanks for the new version!
Although the checkbox "check for updates" was enabled in my 4.1.-Version, the software did not inform me about the new release. Even hitting the "check now" button did not help. Maybe this was a bug in 4.1. ?

m@, if you re-read a few posts above you'll see that version 4.2 is currently on beta stage.

hal900, version 4.2 is out since yesterday evening (I posted a message in this thread, updated the main page, the History page and published an article in the blog today).

m@, the updates check feature displays a message coming from the web server. As there's always a risk to miss a last big issue, I prefer not to rush to inform every users when I release a new version, and updated this update message only tonight (thanks for recalling me anyway). It should work now. [:)]

Oops. So it was me who missed the important post. [:">] And when I say "the post" I mean just the post, because I read the later post by Hansmex about the problem with the files from previous versions, but the last post I read about a release was beta 16.

Well, good to know it's out, anyway. [:)]

m@... I said nothing. [:-"]

Hans,
About the crash you reported in version 4.2, could you check whether it happens with the installer version 4.1? I suspect you didn't encounter this bug before the release of version 4.2, because you were running the Beta with Java 7 and not with Java 6 as does the installer version.

Hi Emmanuel

I encounter a strange problem with the .dmg-version 4.2.: the render process stops after a few minutes and the "save" Button turns from inactive to active. It is even possible to save the uncompleted photo. But no error message appears. What could be wrong?

Do you think it's a regression? Could you reproduce this issue more than once? If yes, could you [url=mailto:[email protected]]send me[/url] the faulty file?
