[Qgis-user] Qgis crashes frequently when digitizing streams over WMS images

Hi Filipe,

Hi Filipe,

I believe we already discussed this issue privately recently. I gave it
a go another time with the provided data and also with data of my own (I
recently had to do a job that involved digitizing). I cannot replicate
the issue.

I tested master on both Windows and Linux.

Can you exclude a local issue? Did you tested on another machine? If
not, can you?

Cheers
