Crash On 3D Text Node Position Change

Hi,

In both fusion 7 and the new 8 beta, on both windows and osx, I am able to crash fusion just by moving the coordinates of a 3d text node in a simple node chain.

The crashing always occurs when a node that is placed after the 3d text node is monitored on the left or right preview, and you change the X, Y or Z position of the 3d text node.

I can make a video demonstrating this issue if required.

Kind regards,
Nick

Please post your comp here so i can evaluate on our systems.

Hi Rony,

I have discovered that the crash occurs when using a specific font. On OSX both otf and ttf versions of the font don't render correctly in Fusion. On Windows the font is also not rendered correctly, and Fusion will crash the very instance you choose the OTF version of the font in the font dropdown, and will crash upon moving the text object when using the TTF. I have also noticed that another OTF font also does not render correctly. It's a very specific font that we need to use for our client, so we don't have the freedom to simply use another font. The current workaround is to create the 3d text in 3d Blender, export as obj, and import the obj using the FPX Mesh node in Fusion.

I can't seem to include the project file as an attachment; the extension ".comp" is not allowed to be uploaded as an attachment. So here is a download link:

Here are links to the font files:

Thanks for feedback, i'm look into that.

As far as posting a comp, just select all the tools in fusion, do a copy, then click the 'code' in the forum post editor, and insert the code between the two and it will show up in your post.

Copy code and past into flow and all the tools are there

example

Code: Select all

{
   Tools = ordered() {
      Loader1 = Loader {
         Clips = {
            Clip {
               ID = "Clip1",
               Filename = "/Users/bmdmacpro/Documents/Princess3D/Stills/Background.tga",
               FormatID = "TargaFormat",
               StartFrame = -1,
               LengthSetManually = true,
               TrimIn = 0,
               TrimOut = 0,
               ExtendFirst = 0,
               ExtendLast = 0,
               Loop = 0,
               AspectMode = 0,
               Depth = 0,
               TimeCode = 0,
               GlobalStart = 0,
               GlobalEnd = 0,
            },
         },
         CtrlWZoom = false,
         Inputs = {
            ["Gamut.SLogVersion"] = Input { Value = FuID { "SLog2", }, },
         },
         ViewInfo = OperatorInfo { Pos = { 165, 49.5, }, },
      },
   },
   ActiveTool = "Loader1",
}

Hi Rony,

Thank you for your reply, I have pasted the code below, you need to change the font of the 3d text node to the "gaiatype" font to be able to crash it.

Kind regards,
Nick

My mac does not have that font.

Hi Rony,

Indeed, they are non standard fonts. In the second reply you can find two links to fonts I frequently have to use for projects. The first one renders wrong and causes the crashing, and the second one renders wrong but doesn't crash.

Kind regards,
Nick
