Improper argument
« on: January 23, 2013, 07:46:15 AM »
Started to get a box with warning "improper argument" and PM5 shuts down. Tried to Ctrl Alt Prnt Screen the message but it will not take for some reasons.

I was using another piece of software at the same time as PM (Works Eight ) and tried running it without Works in the background but get the same result.

Saw someone else with a similar problem on forum but do not know what the fix is.

Hi Frank!

Have a look in the PM.log file (location see in the preferences => Caching)
May be there is a hint on this.

After 5 years of absence I restarted the photography.

Were you using Info Text tooltips in the Contact Sheet?  If so, try turning them off from the View menu.

Tried turning off text and it seems to have cured the problem.

Does this mean we can't use info text?

For now, yes.  The next build should fix this problem.
