Issue report by JonJ

Product

FileMaker Pro

Version

13.0v1

Operating system version

Mavericks

Description of the issue

I have a popover containing an interactive container field. The field is in a related table (1:1 relationship).

I use a button which runs a script to insert a PDF (with go-to-object and insert PDF steps, no file path specified, so it brings up a system dialogue box to choose the file).

Sometime this works fine, but a little less than half the time Filemaker crashes (or rather, "quits unexpectedly").

This is the same on a number of different fields in several different databases--one on my desktop (created in 13) and two hosted on an FMS13 mac mini server (one created in 13, on created in 12).

I've been submitting the crash reports to apple.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Create a popover with an interactive container field, and use a script to insert a PDF.

Expected result

field is populated with the chosen PDF, and displays it interactively.

Actual result

Sometimes filemaker quits unexpectedly.
