Alejandro.


I just did (250,80,10,80,80,80,10,10,10,50) on another machine. No problems.



Are you saying that only increasing values of tabStops are stable in your setup? I cannot see any other pattern in what you said worked, as opposed to what seems to crash LC.

Looks like the IDE expects that Tab Stops
are written like this:
250,330,340,420,500,580,590,600,610,660
not like this:
250,80,10,80,80,80,10,10,10,50

If this is the correct way to write Tab stops
in the IDE, then I expect an error message
but not that the application hangs and crash.

Try by yourself (with no other stack opened)
In a new stack, create a text field and
using the properties palette, set the Tab stops
to: 250,80,10,80,80,80,10,10,10,50

Tell us if your IDE does not hangs and crash.


Thanks in advance.

Al
