Hi there.
MBPro M2, MacOS 13.2.1, Elements 1.5.5 (23954)
Just upgraded to Elements and installed and activated it. Not sure if the Elements Cloud account has been created/activated.
Elements launches fine, but choosing any of the templates from New Project invokes a fatal error that freezes the app, requiring a Force-Quit. The same thing happened on opening a Classic project.
I’ll try and post the text of the error separately as the forum software baulked at its inclusion in this post.
Sorry, but as a new user I can’t upload the text file containing the error text and I can’t copy-paste the text either (even as a quote). Here is the start of the first line of the error:
Something went wrong while evaluating A JavaScript exception occurred
Here is the rest of that line:
: (function() {// Register a new languagemonaco.languages.register({ id: ‘elementsHTML’ })
Not sure if it might have to do with using Mac OSX Ventura? @dan?
Thanks, pumpkin. Ventura is listed as compatible, though.
Here is the next snippet with the New Order-esque “Hurt me plenty” invocation:
// Register a tokens provider for the languagemonaco.languages.setMonarchTokensProvider(‘elementsHTML’, (function() {// Difficulty: “Hurt me plenty”// Language definition for HTML// This definition uses states extensively to// - match up tags.// - and to embed scripts dynamically// See also the documentation for an explanation of these techniquesreturn
@chevas Sorry you’re having issues with this!
Would it be possible for you to update your Mac to the latest minor version (13.7.8)?
You don’t need to jump to a whole new major OS, just installing the newest point release can make a difference. We’ve tested Elements on macOS 13.7.8, and things run smoothly here, so updating might help rule out any system-level quirks.
Cheers
Nice one, Tom.
Updating to 13.7.8 did the trick. Also updated to Elements 1.5.6, to boot.
Being slack on the updating on my part induced a bit of a pain, but not the hurt of plenty envisaged by the coder who crafted that witty aside, thanks to the support.
Cheers
