Hello,
Using QLC+ 4.12.6 on a mcbook pro with MacOS 12.6, i've been facing a crash when deleting an audio file.

First : I created a qxw file with a lot of functions. I added an audio file for 1 case (used in the show manager)
Then : I wanted to remove this audio file, not necessary used on other shows. each time I tryed to delete it from the functions tab QLC crashed.
Workarround : I opened the qxw file with a text editor and deleted the few lines surrounding this audio file.

If this can help for development process.
If you need some technical details don't hesitate.

Regards

I just tried this on a Windows 10 laptop, and it worked. No crash.

Created a Show
Added a track
Added mp3 audio file to track (not previously in the project)
Added a scene track
Switched to Functions tab
Selected audio file (initial focus set to name)
Clicked audio file a second time to set focus
Click Delete
Confirm delete
Click Show tab
Audio file is gone

QLC 4.12.6
Windows 7, Windows 10, Linux Mint 21

I have the same problem under Windows 7, QLC+ crashes if you use the Toolbar Delete icon (red X), but if you you right-click on the audio function and use the Delete from the menu thus displayed, then the audio is deleted as expected. I don't get the problem under Windows 10 or Linux.

Just wanted to confirm that this crash also happens with QLC 4.12.6 on Mac.
For some reason it doesn't happen with all audio functions. Some will delete without a problem with the red X in the toolbar, others crash consistently.
But thank you so much for the hint/workaround with the context menu, it works great!

Thank you, Massimo!
With 4.12.7 the red X in the toolbar works as intended, audio functions that crashed 4.12.6 now can be deleted without a problem! :D
