QLC+ 4.3.1 crash on DMX adress change

Hi there,

I have a very annoying problem.
I am creating a new show on OSX with QLC+ 4.3.1 (4.3.0 has the same problem) and i have added the fixtures. Sadly when I change the dmx adress the program crashes.

I open the project file, edit the fixture in fixture groups, assign dmx, click ok and crash!

think I found part of the problem.
in the project file (opened in text editor) the DMX channel counts from 0-511 as opposed to the Gui that uses 1-512.
I was adding a fixture to dmx 68 and had one already on 69. Somehow this causes a conflict as I can add adress 67 but not 68.

Can you share a project file so I can reproduce the issue ?
Thanks

I'll confirm this bug.

at home right now.
this is an old workspace that has the same problem.

It could also have something to do with the fixture definitions i created.
I could not reproduce the problem with generic dimmers as lights.

I experienced this last night with my American DJ Mega Panels. I ended up having to recreate the fixtures and the scenes to get around it but I did get a crash log that may be of some help.
