I regret not writing down the specific error message, but it was general in nature and did not refer to a specific error (cannot save your file for unknown reason, or something along those lines).Īs before, I force-quit the application and rebooted, thinking I could open the file and at least get the previously-saved version. When I attempted to save the file, it would not save. I then placed it on the stage and began editing it in the timeline (video transition, etc.). I changed the file type to PNG, and dragged the screencap from Skitch into my ScreenFlow media library. I used Skitch (which is a great screen capture tool) to do a small screencap. I needed a small, static screen capture included in my screencast. When I attempted to re-open the file, it started to open (I see stage and timeline, with all my items in place) but then Screenflow just crashes with a standard MacOS alert box “The application ScreenFlow quit unexpectedly…” with the Ignore, Report, and Relaunch options.Īfter starting again from scratch and working a couple more hours (saving the file regularly) on the same presentation (and vowing to never attempt to apply font size change to multiple text items) I encountered another error. I had saved the file before attempting this multiple-item font size edit, so I force-quit the application, rebooted and re-started Screenflow. While it appeared to work visually, I was then unable to move the items, or delete the items, or save my file, or anything else without a whole host of runtime errors. Well apparently applying a font size change to a multiple selection (all text items) is a VERY BAD THING. The text itself was not highlighted - the bounding boxes around each were selected because I had Command+clicked them to make a multiple selection. I had 3 text items selected and changed the font size on all of them at the same time. Two major, unrecoverable errors were encountered today and I lost hours of work. I’ve reproduced my error report/vent to the ScreenFlow support team below. While working on the overview screencast for Restricting Access today, I found two bugs. ScreenFlow, at version 1.5.4, still occasionally gives me that Beta feel.
