Browser Palette - Dev Tools crash?

joshM57CN — Fri, 27 Sep 2024 17:39:28 GMT

I updated my API folder* from what I had several months ago, and found that if I attempt to open Dev Tools (both in-product and punch out) for my palette my add-in and fusion will crash.
Visual Studio says it's someting happening in Qt6Gui.dll, so I don't think it's something on my end.
EDIT: Forgot to note, that this happens after I select my palette html from the options on the 'Inspectable Pages'.

Sidenote/question: it seems like the only way my API/development files will update is if I rename or remove the folder. Is there something that will do this automatically? I forget to check and then realize an update was rolled out weeks ago.

Hi @joshM57CN -San.

This may not be a helpful story.

I have encountered a crash on startup of Fusion360 due to a homebrew add-in using palettes in a recent Update.

After investigating the cause, I removed this line and it stopped the crash.

Tested with the Palette Sample found in API documentation. Similar result. Runs fine until you try to open Dev Tools.
