Default Re: SE5 Demo Bug Reports

I run WinXP SP2, DirectX v9.0 with ATI Radeon 9600

These are bugs I've found so far:

Bug: I get access violation errors occasionally when using the Design window. I have yet to nail down a reproducible cause yet. When I do get them, it halts the entire program and I have to force end it through Task Manager.

Bug: I also notice that when using the tutorial, when I alt+tab back to a WinXP program, and then alt+tab back into SEV Demo, the Tutorial screen doesn't render correctly, and instead is beset with a mess of distorted lines running across it. It goes away when I refresh.

Bug/Annoyance: When clicking on a name for an item in a selection box (like a filter or layout selection), the name highlights, but the blue ball doesn't fill in the item's empty ball slot and thus the item is not selected. Only when I click on the empty ball does it fill in. Even worse, when I double-click the name, the selection window closes without selecting the name I just double-clicked. It would be great if selecting items in lists was more intuative. Perhaps making the options in these screens respond to a single click selection instead of double, and respond when a name is clicked instead of just the icon of the ball, would make screen and options control better.

Typo: On page 20 of 51 of the Tutorial the phrase "Select the item titled 'Production' and the* press the OK button." *The word should be "then".
