    How are you using it? Do you mean SU just hangs? Plugins do hang, when asked to do alot of work. And then it's hard to tell, if it's doing something or actually crashed. So you can try giving it some time to work. I've had it happen on a very large file, when using it from the context menu. In which case you can try selecting smaller groups of parts. It shouldn't hang if you are just clicking on parts, one at a time. If you want to post, pm or email me the file, I will have a look at it. Been meaning to change something in the plugin, to see if it will help prevent an actual crash. I had another plugin that definitely crashed and was able to fix it. But like I said, it's hard to tell if its just working hard or actually crashed.

    Hi Gra,

    That would be a "Bug Splat". I didn't know what that was for the longest time. Though it was some nick name for a crash, but then it happened to me and it actually saids "Bug Splat". So you click on a simple rectangle face and get a "Bug Splat"? If that's the case, then I don't know what to tell you. It's never been reported before. And there is nothing for me to test, as it works fine for me.
