  POvray 3.7 Beta 21 (Win) bug (Message 1 to 5 of 5)

Afternoon all,

I'#ve been playing with the new Beta and have found a bug. I assume this is 
where I post it...

When starting/stopping a render repeatedly, POVray gets confused and 
although the menu button says "Run", clicking it does not start rendering 
again - it just "clicks" and nothing happens. Closing/re-opening POV fixes 
the problem. I am on a dual-core PC so I'd guess it's something to do with 
the thread control. Status at the top-right says "Idle". I'm in the middle 
of a long render (2 days so far) so don't want to mess with it too much, but 
will gladly try to re-create if you need other info - Please just let me 
know what would help

Thanks for an amazing program!

Simon

I think it has been reported before. Not so bad that you re-posted, if 
it hasn't been fixed yet! :)

I can't seem to replicate this.

HO, and that latest beta is now expired since 30/09/2007. Waiting for beta 22a 
or beta 23.
