Title: [KNOWN ISSUE] Crash when trying to color preview label material
Post by: Eric Summers on March 07, 2019, 10:12:15 AM
When working with a material that has a label, KeyShot will crash if I try to do a color preview of the label material. For example, in the graph below if I pick the color preview of the Plastic node KeyShot consistently crashes. I can do a color preview of every other node with no problem. Win 10 Pro, KS 8.2.80.

Hi Eric.
I have experienced this as well. Haven't been able to pinpoint the issue earlier though, but doing a color preview of the main surface material (not the label) makes KeyShot 8.2 crash instantly on mac.

Hello Eric,

Thank you for reporting this crash. We will have our quality assurance team test and file a bug report. A fix will most likely be available in the next software update. For now, I recommend avoiding the color preview of the label material. You will also want to save your work often. Save reminders can help.

Hi Bruno,

Thanks for the information! Luckily I don't use color preview of labels very often.
