External Email - Exercise Caution

Rodger, I have never experienced the issue that you are reporting; but since you are reporting it across your userbase on multiple workstations, I think the problem may be localized to your network setup. It might be how your network delivers the images to TMS; for instance, TMS might be timing out because it is not receiving image data fast enough.

I am going to assume that your images are stored on a network drive. If you are not doing so already, you might want to try converting a media path from a mapped drive letter path to a UNC path. See if that improves access to those images.

Something else to try is uninstalling the TMS client, restarting the workstation, and then reinstalling the TMS client. This can occasionally help.

In general I have always found TMS to be buggy regarding images. It often crashes when we open an image, regardless of your starting point. We experience this on multiple workstations; it’s just that we notice it more from Lightbox since certain staff tend to work with that more frequently.

Those specs shouldn't be a problem. Does the system crash whenever you open the image from the object record, or is it just the lightbox? Is this happening on multiple machines or just one?

What are the dimensions, size, and filetype of the image you are trying to open?

Hello everyone.

 

We often experience TMS crashing, then closing, when we click to enlarge an image displayed in light box view.

 

We are on TMS 2017 (version 9.60.6010_001).

 

Any ideas what might be causing this, or if it’s a bug with this version?

Thanks and have a great day.

Rodger
