Switch to empty Notes folder & changing Note storage method crashes application #24

Open ghost opened 13 years ago

ghost commented 13 years ago
  1. Create an empty directory on your Mac
  2. Start nvALT
  3. Go to Preferences, Notes
  4. Change "Read notes from folder:" to the empty directory you made.
  5. Change "Store and read notes on disk as" from "Single Database" to "Plain Text Files"
  6. nvALT crashses at this point for me.

If you create a note between step 4 and 5, the application doesn't crash.

I'm guessing it's trying to convert notes in step 5 but failing because there aren't any notes to convert.

Thanks for the report.

What version of nvALT are you using? Please get it from the "About nvALT" command in the nvALT menu. Should be something like : "Version 2.0 (56)"

We're about to release 2.1, which I think fixes this bug. Unless you're beta testing 2.1 (which I can't tell from your GitHub username).
