Crash while hovering a File Name on the Tab Bar

Crash while hovering a File Name on the Tab Bar

On the first day I noticed this behavior, I was highly working with several files, and in on that day I got like 3 or 5 crashes.

That day I did not have to time to write a bug report (busy), but today I got more free time and it just crashed while working with 3 files and going to switch between them by mouse.

I am now looking for a way to disable the hover on the tabs, to see whether those crashes can be stopped with it.

Steps to reproduce

1. While working with several files, or sometimes just some.
2. And using the mouse to switch the tab.
3. Right on the moment where the hover should be showed as on the picture, Sublime Text just crashes.
4. Notice, I do remember about seeing actually the hover show up, because its happens really fast.

Does it still crash with all the third party plugins disabled?

[evandrocoan]

That will be a hard question to answer and will take time to get a full response. I kinda cannot start working on may daily only with a clean install.

For now we got a half answer, until yesterday I was using almost only half the plugins due I do not know which one was lagging my sublime text. This where the commit I enabled about ~45 not guilty plugins yesterday:

1. evandrocoan/ITE@16acc52

On the major crashing day I got about 50 plugins from 106 enabled. Yesterday I got about 100 enabled so we may assume the ~45 just enabled yesterday was not guilty of the crash. These are not guilty plugins from the commit, NotGuiltyOnes.txt and AllPackages.txt. Removing the not guilty from the list, doing grep -v -x -f NotGuiltyOnes.txt AllPackages.txt we got 61 doubtful packages DoubtfulPackages.txt.

For starters, I would hold my bets on the amxmodx package, which already crashes the plugin_host when the AMXX compiler settings is not pointing to a valid compiler on amxmodx package load.

Themes can theme the tooltip that appears when you hover over a tab's filename, so it might be worth disabling Theme - Soda, Theme - SoDaReloaded and Boxy Theme and checking if it still crashes.

Thanks @keith-hall, I gonna try it out.

Or may be it is my dictionary file fuzzing around with Hunspell. Note the there are currently crashes associated to the spelling engine:

1. #1484 Strange spell check bug

Also, I never ever close Sublime Text. It is always open, as I do not shutdown my computer, Sublime Text should stays open for days and days. This time was on the exactly moment I was gonna switch a tab. Yesterday crashed while I was moving the mouse over the text near the tabs bar, but not touching it.
