Hi there,

Just checking in on the above.

Does this still occur on the latest Panda version (2510) for you?

If so, no worries, we will investigate further!

Yes, I just updated panda and tried again. It still crashes when I type a # followed by a space.
It also crashes when I type something and use the menu to select Heading
I attached the MacOS Problem Report if that helps.

Thanks,
Eddie Williamson

Hi Eddie,

Many thanks for your response and additional information.

We will investigate this further. cc - @matteo

I figured it out!!
I had unzipped panda in the downloads folder. When I used the Check For Updates menu selection it told me I was in the wrong folder. I moved it to Applications and now it is working again. Headers don’t crash the app. So the problem is solved.

You might save this as a FAQ in case others have the issue. Also, the developers might put checks in to trap the exception that was causing the crash and give a message for it.

Thanks again,
Eddie

Hi Eddie,

That’s great news! and is good to know. I’ll definitely store this aside incase a similar question pops up!

Glad to hear that is it working again. If we can assist with anything further let us know.
