Athena crashes on windows10

Hello. Me and other people running windows 10 have problems with Athena (demeter version 0.9.26). when switching to the LCF window the program crashes. I tested that indeed sometimes this happens when the list of data sets is long. However, it recently happened with only 3 data sets in the list. In one case Athena crashes at this same spot repeatedly. In other cases if works after restarting Athena or the PC. Is there a fix in sight or do I have to go back to windows7?

I don't see that problem, and don't recall this being raised before. Perhaps I'm not using the same data as you or "other people"? Or perhaps it is because I am using Demeter 0.9.26 with Larch (with which I think there may be numerical problems with LCF, but not crashes).
Is it possible to post a project file that can cause this to happen?

Well, phrased like that it seems pretty dire ;). I don't know think we've identified the cause of the problem yet. Then again, it's hard to imagine a question for which " downgrade to Windows7" is the answer.

Thanks, Lisa, I have been seeing a similar problem this week at the beamline. Some tests on my own computer make it clear that LCF is not working correctly in the current release. I will work on this as soon as possible, however, I am with users for a while.... B On 03/28/2018 01:56 PM, Lisa Bovenkamp-Langlois wrote:
