[TxMt] TM2: crashing while accidently dragging selected text
Stephen Bannasch
I have NOT yet been able to make a simple replication.
Has anyone else noticed a problem like this?
I have submitted the crash reports to Apple and I DO have "Submit crash reports to MacroMates" turned on. Hopefully this means
the reports are getting to Allan and they provide some clues.

Accidental dragging, then crash.
Funny, how it only happens when "accidentally" dragging... :)
Never happened when it was intentional.

More information on the crash.
If I move the cursor to a location to start a drag-selection and pause at the beginning the cursor changes from a vertical bar to a selection one char wide.
If I then move the drag-location and mouseup TM2 crashes.
If instead of mouseup I move back to my original mousedown location and move horizontally carefully at just the right spot the the one-char wide gray selection changes back to a vertical bar and I can mouseup without crashing.
I have not been able to reproduce this when just starting TM2 with a single file.
This behavior starts occurring after having used TM2 for a while.

1. Type something, anything, a few characters to give your cursor some
room to move.
2. Find your blinking input cursor, probably at the end of the line
3. Move your mouse directly over the blinking end-line cursor, it has
to be pixel-perfect lined up
4. Click and hold, now drag your mouse elsewhere, it should look like
it's highlighting 1 char-width blocks where text is present
5. Let go, crash, and profit... or not :D
To prevent crashing:
If you click and drag, and notice that you are highlighting single
characters, drag all the way up to the title bar, off the actual text
entry area, then let go, that should prevent the crash. It may work
if you drag anywhere outside of the text area and let go, not sure.
This has been driving me bat-shit-crazy the last week or so, I don't
know exactly when it started happening. The issue was present in an
earlier build, but instead of crashing, it would scroll you to the
top. Now it crashes.
Let me know if you guys can reproduce the same way I can... curious to
know.

Joining in to those that have the problem (reproduceble the same way), here
is what I also showed to Allan (in case someone is interested).
VERSION: 9092
This has only been a bug in later releases, as far as i recall, it wasn't a
problem for about 4 bug-fix releases ago (the hold option while pressing
update).
PROBLEM:
Textmate crashes when using the “select first word and drag it around” on an
empty selection (just the cursor).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
· Have the cursor located at a point.
· Move the mouse at the EXACT same position as the cursor.
· Click, hold and drag around.
There is nothing in the selection, so it looks like you're dragging around
the cursor. When you "let go" of the selection (ie drop it), TextMate
crashes.

Yes. I can reproduce following your instructions.
I have lost enough work that I find myself avoiding dragging to select in TM2 -- instead I click, move cursor, and shift click to select an area.

Thanks, should be fixed in latest test build.

You lost significant amount of work with TM2? It should be quite good at restore your sessions and modified documents after a crash, so I’d be interesting if it has a blind-spot.

Here's a youtube video showing changes to source, then I cause the crash, reopen TM2, changes are gone.

Did you disable “Open documents from last session” in Preferences?

Yes. I had found the behavior annoying.
... but with "Open documents from last session" enabled the changes I had make just before the crash are restored.
