Alright, I did a bit more testing, and it seems to be related to fractional scaling. I usually have fractional scaling set to 1.25x, I still get crashes on 1.5x, but not on 1x, 1.75x, or 2x. but Not sure if it's an upstream bug or not but it seems like it might be.
Gnome 46 means running on newer gtk (4.14) and libadwaita (1.5) versions.
gtk 4.14 made ngl
the default renderer and that seems like the most likely suspect (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/?sort=created_date&state=opened&search=ngl&first_page_size=20)
Maybe follow https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/6574#note_2063669 and set GSK_RENDERER=gl
or to another renderer to test if ngl is the issue (and report issues upstream to the gtk gitlab).
It will be a while before we can seriously look at gtk 4.14 though (probably need to wait until the new versions are available on all platforms
Once this is available we'll be able to look at gtk 4.14 and related issues (and look back on any previous gtk issues and workarounds)

Yes, it seems like this is the source of the issue. I'll report this upstream when I have the time to do so.
Maybe follow [..] and set
GSK_RENDERER=gl
I also experienced crashes with the arch community package (fwiw Im using Plasma6/Wayland), and this seems to fix it
Experiencing crashes too when drawing. Probably related to fractional scaling as mentioned above.

Passing version (didn't test versions in-between): This version does not exhibit the crashing issue.

For anyone looking for a quick fix, install the version that works:
flatpak remote-info --log flathub com.github.flxzt.rnote
flatpak update --commit=dc829353acef99cde736910ca4bafcf6ed4ecdb9623056b0d48e043ef7c4254e com.github.flxzt.rnote
A little extra info, in case it helps.
I'm not using fractional scaling, but am running Ubuntu 24.04 with Gnome 46, and experience the same crashes. Drawing then attempting to zoom or pan often crashes. Drawing and switching to eraser crashes. Takes the entire desktop with it and I have to log back in, having lost any unsaved work in all my apps.
Having the same issue with GIMP crashing when I switch from mouse input to pen input, didn't happen before moving to 24.04 with Gnome 46, so probably the new renderer for sure.
I have not had any crashes with Xournal++ using the pen. rnote and GIMP crash regularly when using the pen. I know, these apps aren't rnote, but I thought it might help in hammering down exactly where the issue is.
Adding a bit more info.
This issue will eventually cause the entire gnome-shell to crash as well.
Hello, I also have the same issue. Sometimes the entire app crashes but in more sever cases, the entire Gnome Shell crashes. I am currently on Gnome 46 on Fedora 40 using Wayland. The stylus is some sort of Wacom solution used by Dell.
flatpak run com.github.flxzt.rnote
rnote: ../src/cairo-pattern.c:3831: _cairo_pattern_get_extents: Assertion `status == CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS' failed.
A bit more probing found that this issue does not occur for the Brush tool when path modelling is set to simple. Dragging images can still cause crashes.

Since you're running the flatpak version, your shell crashes are likely caused by this separate bug in Mutter, which has already been patched upstream but has not yet shipped to distributions.
I think we should just not use ngl
at all on any platforms for the time being.
Force the gl renderer to gl
like this https://github.com/Doublonmousse/rnote/commit/215a68e2d76fb44357ea39e2796cba793000a0bf and call it a day.
As the renderer will change to vulkan with the next gtk stable release (4.16) on linux, we can revisit this then (and not lose time searching for nothing).
Other platforms don't have this kind of issues with ngl (this is a ngl linux specific issues) but this renderer also comes with a substantial performance impact so it makes sense to use the old renderer on non linux platforms as well for the time being.
Is it possible to make a new release or at least backport this fix to the flathub version? Unfortunately it's currently unusable for me because I have fractional scaling

In light of this, I'd like to point out that on the current flatpak version, the same crash occurs, but with a different console output:
Gsk:ERROR:../gsk/gpu/gskvulkanimage.c:260:gsk_vulkan_image_new: assertion failed: (width > 0 && height > 0)
Bail out! Gsk:ERROR:../gsk/gpu/gskvulkanimage.c:260:gsk_vulkan_image_new: assertion failed: (width > 0 && height > 0)
Which seems on the surface level to be essentially the same bug, but with the Vulkan renderer.
Rnote v0.11.0, which was just released, forces the renderer to 'gl' in response to the many crash reports posted here.
Eventually this should be re-evaluated at a later date, when Gtk's new renderers become more stable.
Describe the bug
Nearly any action (attempting to draw on the canvas, attempting to move copied in photo) will potentially crash the app, and occasionally crash the entire desktop. Only occurs when running app under Wayland (never crashes under XWayland). Has only been happening since recent upgrade to GNOME 46, most recent rnote version did not have this issue prior.
