Can you email the session file to me directly at gregc@…. There shouldn't be any size limits on our end. Other we'll need to dropbox or an equivalent.

[Greg Couch]

The bug is in restoring one of the molecular surfaces. Do you remember how you colored them?

[Greg Couch]

The session file is corrupted. I temporarily modified the serialization code, so instead of generating a traceback, it just skipped setting map element when the key was unhashable. BTW, it was map[{}] = {}". And no restore-able objects were found afterwards. If it were just a bad dictionary key when the session file was generated, then then rest of the session would have been decoded properly.

Not sure what to do. Can you reproduce this problem? Presumably by having a valid session file without surfaces, and then an invalid session file with surfaces?

[peter@…]

I used the custom coloring feature and assigned my own coloring to the
different units.

I’ll try some more tests…

Thanks for looking into it.

I’m covered so no need to go further

Love the new X version… looking forward to OBJ export…

Best

Remilestone 1.2 to 1.3.

[Greg Couch]

I am unable to reproduce this error and we haven't seen any other reports. So I'm going to assume that is has been fixed in subsequent releases.
