When starting a new design and the steps below are followed the application freezes and stops responding.

  1. New design
  2. breadbord tab is selected
  3. delete default breadboard
  4. Add single-sided stripboard by draging from core parts
  5. Set size of stripeboard to columns = 39 and rows = 30
  6. search for Component atmega328 and then drag Component to stripboard
  7. Applicationa freezes and stops responding as soon as the Component touches the stripboard
    As long as Component is not draged on top of the stripboard there is no problem.

This freezing is the same every time and I have tried 7-8 times.
No problem with smaller stripboard (default setting 30 columns x 20 rows) but when changing smaller stripboard design size to size 39 columns x 30 rows the application frezzes and stops responding.

Computer system:
windows 7 32-bit with service pack 1
i5 - 4670 3.40 GHz, 4GB of RAM

I'm afraid that's due to the relatively naive implementation we made. It's probably not freezing, but just taking a lot of time to compute the stripboard behaviour. More optimization work is needed here.

This behavior is caused by #3090 (see there for a workaround). It is unrelated to the selected component. Verified with 0.9.2b on Linux.

Finally, it turns to be that fritzing updates its part library at the first-time start, which has caused the application freezing or not responding.

Fritzing is freezing. It is fritzing 0.9.3b 64bit on Windows 10 Home Edition (upgraded to the newest on Oct 26, 2018). Each time I start fritzing, the application promts "not responding" or just freezes without any prompt.

When I run fritzing as the administrator, it does not freeze at the start but do after I do some operations like the ones mentioned by @spelare69 .

Gemba is right: Because of #3090 all connectors of the board are connected to each other. This is not a typical case for a stripboard, and should be avoided. Furthermore, when Fritzing tries to build a list of connected items, it uses said naive implementation.

…ritzing#2998 and fritzing#3084. The slow performance is still present but the extended area is not shortcircuited.
