Hi,

I just started using SkyDemon for iPad, version 3.0.6.
My iPad is a brand new iPad Air 64 GB LTE.

I have purchased the Germand DFS VFR approach plates as add-on.

Now, when I show an approach plate like Egelsbach's Visual Operation Chart and zoom in a lot and then move the map around, at some point SD will just close.

It sounds like an out of memory exception I read here in the forums earlier; but I don't know how to confirm.
Even worse: Although it is a unreasonable zoom level, SD should never just crash, but rather prevent such upcoming out of memory exceptions...

If you need further information to fix/improve, let me know.

Regards,
Markus

The crash is not catchable by SkyDemon as it happens at the OS level after we've asked it to render a very large or complex PDF such as the one you mention. We would have to prevent the crash in the first place, which is not totally possible (as we don't know what will make iOS run out of memory) but we may be able to do something to help by queuing the requests to render the plate so they aren't trying to happen concurrently. We'll take a look.
