CopyQ v8 and v9 crash often

[kayanco]

Hi,

Version 7 of CopyQ is stable for me. But when I tested v8 and v9, both would often crash on Windows 11.

How I find out is that CopyQ wouldn't appear on Shortcut press. Checking the system tray, CopyQ isn't present. So I re-launch again. Then the same thing after some time (maybe few hours).

Same behavior on v8 and v8. OS is Windows 11. Version 7 didn't have this issue.

The same thing on Mac OS, once a 1-2 days.

Now CopyQ crashed while using it and generated logs. Most likely it is connected with this error.

The crash is related to sanitizing HTML document fonts. This is needed so that the application does not crash when there is some HTML text item with huge fonts. Unfortunately, this still does not seem to be fixed in Qt.

You can try disabling Text plugin - in Preferences dialog, under Items tab:

Hi hluk, is this related to the original issue I posted as well (post 1)?

Also, what happens if we disable Text Plugin?

Not sure. Unfortunately, I don't know a way to get an additional info for the crash on Windows.

CopyQ won't sanitize the fonts because it will render only plain text (not HTML). The sanitization can still occur if opening the built-in editor for an HTML item.
