Original Redmine Issue: 20425
Affected QGIS version: 3.4.1
Redmine category:digitising

Hi all,
during editing session when I use 'advanced digitizing tools' and snap is active, when I begin to digitize QGIS starts loading and I have to force closure. Actually it doesn't crash.
QGIS 3.2 is ok

I try to explain step by step what happens:

1. I activate SNAP option
2. I activate 'adavaned digitising'
3. I starts digitising on an exiting layer so SNAP 'attach' my new feature to an exiting one
4. QGIS starts loading with no end as you can see in the attached picture
5. I force closure

I cannot replicate here. Try with a new/clean profile.

no, try if you can replicate using a new profile

settings > user profiles > new profile

I have a very similar problem/experience:
I've attached a sample project, where I'm using my default profile. (called bug1.zip)
In the project I have 'advanced digitizing'-button active.
When I push the 'snap' button, Q-GIS freezes up (QGIS is not responding), and I have to force quit. The problem both occurs in QGIS 3.4.1 and 3.4.2.

When I tried Q-GIS 3.4.2 with a clean profile, the problem is different. I don't get the opportunity to activate advanced digitizing. I can't figure out why. (attached sample project called bug.zip)

My operating system is Windows 10 Pro.

Are you able to replicate the error with my sample project?

no, is all ok on 3.4.2 here. No 3rd party plugins installed.

I uninstalled all 3rd party plugins and restarted the computer before creating the projects above.
I might look further into why advanced digitizing cannot activate when I'm using a clean profile. I'll let you know, if I discover anything.

I solved the issue creating a clean profile (settings-->user profiles). The issue seems to relate to a 3rd party plugin which doesn't create problems in 3.2 version
