Title: Dialog boxes are not drawing
Post by: mglass on November 27, 2018, 03:42:54 PM
Hi Corey,

I'm loving the app so far (I'm currently evaluating).  I love how deep it is, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy it and use it for my future tournaments.

I'm having a problem, however.  After about 25/30 minutes, the dialog boxes suddenly stop drawing, and I have to restart TD.  It's very frustrating.  Is this something you are aware of, and if so, is there a workaround or fix for it?

I'm including my system info below.

Thanks for a great product, and I look forward to your response!

Unfortunately I suspect what you are seeing is probably this issue: http://www.thetournamentdirector.net/forums/index.php?topic=5326.0

Ugh.  So I guess 3.4.3 hasn't fixed it yet, eh?  Nobody has found a way to work around this?  I don't see how I can run a tournament for 5 hours if this keeps happening :(

The fix is in progress: http://www.thetournamentdirector.net/forums/index.php?topic=5447.0

There are some tips in that topic I previously posted for dealing with the issue.  I know they aren't great, but they do help.  Are you saying yours crashes after 25 to 30 minutes when a tournament is running and you're not doing anything else (as in, just the clock and rounds are counting down, you're not otherwise working with the app?)

I haven't tested that yet... I will.  On both Windows 10 computers I have been working on, it happens after going through many configuration dialogs... after a while it just doesn't want to draw the dialogs.

My experience has also shown opening lots of dialog windows will eventually lead to the issue.
