Cascading error in 2.6 beta 5
« on: May 11, 2011, 03:15:42 PM »
Just so those beta testing are aware, there is a known bug in the Tokens dialog, which can be reached by pressing the "Tokens" button on the Layout tab, or by editing a level on the Rounds tab and pressing the "Tokens" button, and it has a cascading effect.  The code in that dialog has the unfortunate side-effect of overwriting a widely used function, and thus an error will occur in any code that calls that function after you open that dialog.  Once you've opened the "Tokens" dialog, you'll see errors in numerous places throughout the software, and will likely get "stuck" and be forced to close the application and restart it.

Luckily this is little used functionality, so it should not affect most people.  Just avoid it.
