Hello,
Today I got an exception after clicking on a button which led to an error as following. After this error occurred the mentioned button was represented by a white rectangle with a red cross in it. The problem is that I cannot really reproduce it. Normally the application which contains this button works fine independent on which computer. Can you imagine what leads to this error?

Hello Christoph,
Thank you for the report. However, unfortunately, I'm unable to reproduce this issue on my side using the latest version of our suites - 6.3.6. There is no any project attached. I can suppose that this problem is similar to the issue described in the following thread: RED CROSS OF DEATH. Please review it and check whether you are performing all operations correctly. If it doesn't help, please attach a sample project demonstrating the issue and describe the exact steps on how to reproduce it.
I'm awaiting your response.
Thanks,
Stan.
