OSX and custom menus: regular crashes (5 Comments)

Issue report by clarifix

Product

FileMaker Pro

Version

13.0v3

Operating system version

10.9.5

Description of the issue

My application uses custom menus exensively, but suffers from occasional crashes.

This happens while changing layouts or when switching modes - in fact at the time the custom menus are being built.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Make an application that uses custom menus all the time.
Any light-weight lab scale example is just not enough to generate the problem, which only happens occasionally.
