TextMaker crashes when the system switches between Light and Dark mode. Reliably, and regardless of whether the switch happens manually or automatically. It happens a few seconds after the switch.
Do you guys get the developer crash reports that I've been filling out that get submitted to Apple? If not, here's a couple (attached), observed on a brand-new just-set-up iMac. I had been seeing this for a while on a Macbook Air as well, but incorrectly ascribing it to a sleep/wake issue, possibly related to being docked using Thunderbolt. This time things are simpler; the machine was awake, I was using the app, and at sunset the desktop went dark, and a few seconds later, TextMaker crashed.
Oh great, now I can't reproduce it. I thought I had it reproducing reliably. Then I thought, I really ought to try the PlanMaker and Presentations apps too, and they didn't show it, and now apparently neither does TextMaker. I bet it shows up again though some time!
Anyway the two crashes I did experience, which did happen seconds after a light/dark switch, are attached. It's a segv so it definitely wants fixing. In a Zipfile as the forum doesn't let me upload bare .crash files.

Re: Crash when Mac switches between Light and Dark modes
and typically it happened again right after posting the above, and setting my general preference back to auto switch light/dark. I'm sure they're all the same but have another .crash file

Could you please also go to "? | About | Write system information" and send me the sminfo.txt it generates?
