Path Width tool causes VS to freeze

Boldline

The image I had placed was 4mb in size and very large. I reduced the size and dpi of the image and so far I've not had the same issues as before.

Subpath

is happen here also
often when i want deselect Width Nodes or set a new one

One observation I also made, VS generally seems to take
a bit long to deselect all Width Nodes, e.g. by clicking
anywhere on the canvas

@Boldline Opened a bug on this one.

@Subpath @Boldline @b77 Are there some steps I could use to replicate this freeze?

@VectorStyler

only one simple curve in this file

doesnt know it exactly
i guess create some Width Nodes and choose one
in middle of two others. Make this Node bigger and smaller
and deselect it by clicking anywhere on the Canvas.

sometimes it needs a few more Nodes

made a Video here where i captured the freeze

@VectorStyler I just double-clicked to add a new control point to a brush
stroke instead of a simple click, and the app beachballed.

For me to was happening when I had a large image (4MB) in the background locked underneath it. If I start making ovals and cinverting to curves and then switching to the stroke width tool and adding new nodes to adjust. - eventually it freezes

The issue repeatedly happens even with lower resolution images linked in. Here is a video of it happening today

I'm testing the same file in build 83 to see if it freezes there as well to try to narrow down the issue

UPDATE: Using Build 83, I did not have any issues with the stroke width tool freezing VS
