[solved] Weekly 021-31527 TechDraw dimensions cause crashes

[FBXL5]

Hello community!

TechDraw in the new weekly build 0.21-31527 gives me headaches: Dimensions let FreeCAD crash!

The menu of the dimension tools is reordered; this can be observed as long no dimension has been involved so far.

I still can open files with active TechDraw pages without dimensions.

Then I cannot
- use any dimensioning tool, FC crashes at the moment a tool is selected
- read a file containing at least one dimension; it opens and starts to display some views (if 2D is active), but when it comes to show dimensions FC crashes.

Can someone confirm this behaviour?

No, opened 0.20 and 0.21.master files with dimensions, created dimensions. Created a complete new file and made dimensions, works all.

Linux seems to be safe.

It looks like I have to wait for next build to get rid of a crashing TechDraw. (At least all versions up to 0.21.0.31513 still work fine)

In the meantime my other computer can open files containing TechDraw dimensions, but it is impossible to add new dimensions, instead FC crashes.

At least I can have a look at the new Repair dimension references dialog to create sensible translations in Crowdin.

I'll try with a test file that crashes if you have one to share.

Thanks. This file (without any magic features) was made with 0.21.0.31340 and can be opened with 0.21.0.31527 so far:

I can select a line, but the moment I click any of the dimensioning tools (except extend dimensions) FC disappears completely.

Same revision, but different OS, Python, Qt, Vtk and add-ons, so I'm not sure this tells us much. Do we have a mac developer? I can't think of one off hand.

My hope is that the problem disappears with the next weekly build.

@chrisb, does your Mac crash, too if you try to set dimensions in TechDraw with version 0.21.0.31527 as described above?

Hello FBXL5, greetings to the Community!
@wandererfan I confirm no problem here:

with the file "TechDrawCrash.FCStd"
I attach the file with an excess of 3D dimensioning.

@wandererfan
....however if I open the file "SSDlx_3D_domad-2" (built with version "FreeCAD_weekly-builds-31513-2023-01-08-conda-Windows-x86_64-py310" with Windows10) FreeCad loads it correctly, reporting however errors in the report, after a few seconds to complete the loading it crashes closing immediately, event that doesn't happen with FC-0.21-31513 windows, however TechDraw becomes exaggeratedly slow.

I attach the file divided into two parts, due to "weight" (over one Mb).
