Does not work on Windows 10

@Ingolf Check if there is a c:\Users<User Name>\NumericPath\ folder. That is where VS stores its local user settings (if it manages to launch).
Then in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\NumericPath\ if there are crashes.

@Ingolf Do you have OpenCL driver installed on your system?

Ingolf

@vectoradmin No, GPU chipset too old. Where is it installed? I tried once, I think.

@Ingolf The missing OpenCL is the problem!

First: I have to fix this, as this should not be required

Second: You could try to install OpenCL, as described in:
https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/opencl-drivers.html and
https://streamhpc.com/blog/2015-03-16/how-to-install-opencl-on-windows/

Thanks for letting me know, this is a serious issue in VS.

Ingolf

@vectoradmin Installing opencl helped a bit, now the app starts. First dialog is a crash dialog but the program still works. I filled the dialog out and send the report.

No crash logs this time.

Ingolf

For your to do list: It looks like VS doesn't use the monitor profile I have configured in Windows. I have a wide gamut screen so the colors will look awful.

VectorStyler

@Ingolf Added this to the backlog.

Ingolf

@Ingolf Crash report only happened on the first launch. Not seeing it anymore.

VectorStyler

@Ingolf Thanks for letting me know.
I will fix the OpenCL issue, and will look into the monitor profile problem also.
Meanwhile, the Display color settings of VS can be set in the Styles -> Color Settings menu, if that helps.

Thank you for ultra-fast and competent help!

Vectorstyler looks extremely interesting - and bizarrely feature rich already! You should really stabilize, mature and polish VS now. I can only say WHOW.

Prepare for a bombardement of suggestions, bug reports and usability suggestions.
