Description

Testen on QGIS 2.18.15 on Ubuntu 16.04 (no problem found on QGIS 2.99)

Using a svg as a marker symbol when I style polygons with "outline: marker line" eventually crash QGIS. (also crash when using marker line with svg on line layer).

It's not immediate, but a combination of repeatedly changing marker line interval distance and svg symbol size eventually crash QGIS every time. This is especially true for small distances and sizes.

I've tried different svg-symbols, both included in QGIS and my own files. I've also tried different polygon layers, but eventually it always crash.

The problem is mostly limited to styling in the "live style panel", but preparing a style in the layer properties dialogue and then pressing ok has also crashed QGIS on occasion.

Some error messages are more substantial than others, so the text below is only an example.

Example of crash messages (when starting qgis from terminal):

Can you test with master? There was a related fix which landed in master but hasn't (yet) been backported, and I'm keen to know if it fixes this too.

#2 Updated by Klas Karlsson over 6 years ago

Did test it in Master (2.99) and had no problem, then.
Right now I'm having other problems with current master, so I can't try... (maybe a new ticket)
