When processing a few dozen images, Pinta begins to fail updating its selection boxes #1996
Description
Description
This is a problem that i have regularly but might be time intensive to debug. After a while, the selection box does not update any more properly when cutting or rotating a selection.
To Reproduce
Use case: I am scanning receipts from shopping to archive them later. Usually I scan multiple at once, so I end up with sometimes dozen of A4 sized JPEG images scanned on my flatbed scanner @ 4960x7015 pixels. When done with scanning, I open a good number (maybe 20-30 pages) with Pinta and use the following feature sequence:
- select a box ('s')
- cut (CTRL-X)
- paste to new image (CTRL-ALT-V)
- select all on new image (CRTL-A)
- move ('m')
- use mouse to align straight
- select('s') and draw new box
- trim to selection (CTRL-SHIFT-X)
- close (CRTL-W)
- save, name it, accept JPEG 85% setting
repeat this up to the last - the last one i just align and trim in its original file and safe and close it.
Now after doing a number of them, the selected box on the original image does not clear the selection box any more when cutting - it also doesn't update the image when selecting another region. it does cut though and I can still paste into a new image - there though I notice smearing at the edge of the selection box when I am aligning it.
Side problem - the dialog to safe location and enter name takes a long time to open - far too long for a local path.
Additional Info
I noticed this both with the latest Pinta on Snap as with the system package installation on Linux mint. I have noticed the problem since I started using Pinta, after switching to Linux. (same flow on paint.net works without this problem)
Version
