Hi David,
Nice to hear from you. I didn't find the Freelists site particularly
user-friendly, and wondered if I'd ever hear from anyone on the list!

I'm running Photodesk 3.14 on a Pi4. If I Menu 'Preferences' and attempt
to adjust the Image Cache size, Photodesk crashes with an irrecoverable
error, and has to be quit. Is this a known bug, and if so is there any
workaround?
As a matter of interest, how much memory does the Pi4 have?
4GB
Also is it set up to use a Dynamic Area or the Wimpslot?
WimpSlot -min 1228K -max 1228K
(The value of Photodesk$DynamicAreaSize in !Run)
256
For your info, I've attached !Run as a textfile.
Also, I've actually solved the issue in question by hand-editing
Photodesk's Resources.User.Preference file to up the Image Cache to
200000K.
