Batch bug report 31533: TimerChop, DatToPop

Hi,

Here is the bug report of the current version 31533:

  1. Timer Chop: weird behavior all around especially with custom columns

         - display bug: timer value displayed on each row of custom columns
         - custom columns values are cooking randomly or not cooking at all 
         - I guess timeslicing is also broken

  1. DatToPop Pop: crash when changing the Dat with missing columns

       - when creating new output scope and changing to a dat with a missing column, TD crashes

Thank you for the report!
Do you have a toe for the DAT to POP crash? the timer toe is attached twice. Otherwise will try to reproduce.

And one of us will look at the Timer CHOP issues.

No problems. Those are just 2 consistent things happening, have couple more here and there, will report later on.

To reproduce the issue (which is 100% on my machine, W11), you need to drag and drop the second dat to the DAT parameter of DatTo POP. Sorry, I guess I uploaded the wrong file.

Thank you for the toe, I can reproduce and will look into it.

DAT to POP crash will be fixed in builds 2023.31640+
the crash happens when the column selection doesn’t return anything valid.

Hi @_shandor,

the timer display issue is due to the custom channels from columns containing a space. In future builds this will just not be allowed and you would get an error. Adding an underscore would solve this though.

cheers

Hi Markus,

Good to know. In other chops the standard behavior is to add ‘_’ automatically I think, that’s why I didn’t think of it.

Thanks
