I've been running into the same issue. My most recent crash was after right clicking a solid but have had it frequently crash when interacting with the model in various ways. Have switched back to 2023 for the time being as the same model hasn't been having any of those issues on that version. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a defined set of steps to recreate the issue as it crashes at different points each time. Currently on Windows 10.
I have spoken to our reseller CadLine most of the engineers there are Ex Delcam so know what they are talking about, i managed to get mine to crash during a teams meeting with one of the engineers and could repeat the error several times it seem to be an issue regarding using the scroll mouse button when it is used to rotate / zoom, the engineer has gone back to autodesk and they are currently monitoring the issue, i was advised to continue using on work that is not critical and when it crashes to complete the crash report that it generates and send it to Autodesk,
i was advised if i had something big and if it crashed would be a nightmare to recover to continue to do this work in 2023 powershape ultimate until Autodesk address the issue in 2024, so if you are doing somthing non critical do it in 2024 and send the crash report to autodest this then moves it up thier priority list to look at from the analitics colleced from the crash reports.
I have had a reply back from Autodesk regarding the crashing or powershapoe 2024 so it does help to send the crash reports as they sent me an email with about 20 of them in thati had sent to them so make sure to fill in the details they do eventually get looked at ,
Display - completely re-written on both platforms
User interface - completely rewritten on both platforms
Dotnet 7 transition - this is invisible but apparently was a lot of work.
Plus, admittedly, some poor assumptions regarding the UI redesign (on both platforms) - both in the way users would react and as well as how it actually worked (or not, mostly)
And, in reality, a really tiny group of developers to do all of that.
In order to find all the bugs you need a lot of users testing.
The WIP versions were not stable enough to encourage a lot of users to use it regularly
Not enough testers, not enough bugs fixed
Not enough bugs fixed, not enough testers
Etc. ad infinitum.
I think Rhino 6 and 7 each had a little over 30 (32-35?) service releases before the following Rhino version was released. Usually the frequency for a service release is one per month. If McNeel keeps that rhythm and the amount of service releases, then we are still roughly 2.5 years away from Rhino 9.
