Hi,
I just ran into something odd - if I press the ALT key and then release it, the application crashes. This happens in two applications, though in one it seems to happen only when a contextual tab group is displayed. In the other one it seems to be happening even without a contextual group displayed.
The stack trace is completely useless, so I was wondering if anyone could point out a few things I can check in the ribbon definition to pinpoint the cause of the problem (though a crash just from hitting the ALT key sure points to something serious "somewhere".)
Thanks,Michel
What type of exception was it? There was a case where a NullReferenceException could occur when pressing the Alt key if there was a button on the window whose IsDefault was set to true but this has been addressed in the latest hotfix. If the problem persists then please provide more information about the exception and if possible a project that demonstrates the issue.
Hi Andrew,
I had to jump through some hoops to finally get the real exception. It is ArgumentNullException: "Key cannot be null. Parameter name: key"
This happens with 2009.2.2049. I reverted back to 2009.2.2001 and the crash is gone - they key tips are displayed.
Is the hotfix you refer to something more recent than 2049?
