First crash of 2023!
Yestalgia, I won a present, isn't it? ;)

. start v.5 beta 2 and go to Add Fixtures > generic > and select generic dimmer
. click "edit the selected fixture definition" > v.5 crashes

I guess the answer is here:

[FixtureBrowser] Models list for "Generic"
[FixtureBrowser] Modes list for "Generic" "Generic Dimmer"
[FixtureBrowser] Modes list for "Generic" "Generic Dimmer"
[FixtureBrowser] Modes list for "Generic" "Generic Dimmer"

Segmentation fault

I tried some other fixtures and it seems to crash only with the generic dimmer selected.

So you tried to edit the only fixture among 1400+ which cannot be edited! :D
But OK, this is a useful report too

Massimo,

Staying on this topic. I love the new fixture editor built into the program itself. Smooth operation so far. I have a pretty repeatable crash when trying to pick a pre-made channel profile. Click the dropdown, select any of the Intensity, Color, etc.... Program crashes.

Could this be an issue of having v4 still on the system? (OSX)

@Massimo
I know but it's the one selected by default so better to fix it ;)

Of course, I fixed both reports
Thanks @Russell too

By the way, including the fixture editor inside QLC+ is mainly for macOS, to avoid having the annoying launcher.
This obviously introduce new possibilities like testing a fixture while editing it, or even adding/modifying a fixture without leaving QLC+

The Open Fixture Library will love this!
