System Exception when right-click-canceling while creating Vray light

[kosso_olli]

The title might be a little misleading, but I get a system exception in a very specific case:

- click vray plane light from the toolbar or in the command panel
- tick the "targeted"-checkbox
- drag to create light
- right-click-cancel while dragging
- bam, system exception, viewport frozen

Hmmm, works fine for me.

So this is fixed for the next nightly/stable build tomorrow and also for the next patch.

Vlado,
are you telling me that this was fixed in about 7 minutes time? Darn, you're quick!

[vlado]

Well, it was a stupid bug...

Best regards,

Anyway, thanks for fixing. I think I can wait for the official patch, in the meantime I just try to avoid the right-click-cancel. Best feature of Max ever by the way. I constantly try to use it in other programs like Photoshop, which of course doesn't work. Stupid habit...
