Show/Hide Sidebar causes crash

esiayo

If you spam 'Show/Hide Sidebar' enough, Orion will crash with EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) on thread 0.

desired functionality: orion does not crash

Version 0.99.131-beta (WebKit 621.1.2.111.4)

I go between auto-hide sidebar and always showing sidebar quite often.
Following latest update from Orion today, the sidebar is not showing permanently when I wanted it to be, and clicking view-> show sidebar repeatedly causes crashes. Video attached.

(On occasion it shows the sidebar much thinner than desired - perhaps when it is not showing, its width is zero?)

Previous version of Orion, seamless changing between showing sidebar and auto-hiding sidebar.
Always showed a sidebar of the same width.

Version 0.99.137-beta (WebKit 619.1.11.111.2)

Huh. I'm like you in this regard in that the whole sidebar becomes thinner than desired thing happens to me even before the 0.99.137 update, along with tab trees getting de-treed, which I made a post about it on this platform.

But I instead found that this update disabled the ability to show the sidebar by hovering the cursor to the left most of the screen/browser.

This is still very much possible. It could be that the update toggled the feature off. You can enable it here:

Interesting! I'm still able to access that feature but I'll keep a look out.

I hadn't updated for a couple of months - absolutely rock-solid all this time - hopefully effective fixes will continue. Wish I knew which version I had before and how to install it haha

Thanks for letting me know! Works as intended now. Fixes a sidebar space bug too (I posted about it separately).
