Hi, An alternative way of quitting Ipe is the following: * create a spline with three vertices * save the resulting image * re-open it. Ipe says: ipe: ipepath.cpp:177: IpePath::IpePath(IpeRepository*, const IpeXmlAttributes&, IpeString): Assertion `inPath && args >= 3' failed. Abort (core dumped) René PS Should we create a separate mailing list for bug reports?
