Crashing when using the drawing tool

I tried to using the drawing tool to split a png image only for it to crash. This seems to happen every time I select the drawing tool regardless of what project is open.

Here is the log

Godot Engine v4.4.1.stable.gh.526aed8d4 (2025-04-11 09:43:55 UTC) -

PixelOver v0.17.0.1 -

Edit: removed website links from the log

Hi, could you try to update your pixelover version ? There were some fixes on the drawing tool already :

I updated it and its still crashing. The log is for the crash is different now though

Edit: never mind its still the same error 

Edit2: The crashes seem to be random as I got the same error message from opening the app and doing nothing

Is it specific to a project ? Or even with a blank project you can reproduce the crash easily

Just tested. I simply opened the program, closed the recover files window and it crashed within seconds. also to add how long it takes to crash seems to vary. sometimes it crashes immediately like just now, sometimes it takes longer. Every time(to my knowledge) it gives the same error message, except when it gives a blank log.

Edit: to add it seems to happen when I click things (home, tools, close windows etc), though as stated before how long varies

Could you try to delete this folder ? it will reset settings, remove backup files and so but it could help : C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\PixelOver

Just tried it. It did not work. Its still crashing with the same error message in the log.

I see in this case you can try :

To check if your GPU drivers are well up to date

If so

To "Disable full-screen optimisations" under the .exe compatibility settings

I use driver version 566.36.  I just tried disabling full screen optimization and it still crashes with the same error message in the log.
