System.NullReferenceException randomly thrown when loading a document from stream

[Stefan Doerr]

Hi, 

I use the control SfRichtextboxAdv to load documents from a stream. This works mostly perfect but after loading a few (often the third document) the control throws the following error:

Source: "Syncfusion.SfRichTextBoxAdv.WPF"

Message: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Stacktrace:

"   at Syncfusion.Windows.Controls.RichTextBoxAdv.PageLayoutViewer.AddVisiblePage(PageAdv page, Double x, Double y, Boolean addAsInitial)"

The control itself is embedded into an windows forms project using elementhost. Version of the control is 17.4460.0.39

Any idea what is causing this crash? Is it a bug or do I miss something? First time loading the doucment seems to work always but after the second or third time the chances are high to hit this issue. 

Thanks!

Hi Stefan, 

Thank you for using syncfusion products, 

We have tried to reproduce the reported issue in our control with windows forms application. But we couldn’t face any exception while loading the documents and we suspect this issue is an application and document specific. So, please share your application and input documents you are using. It will help us to provide you the appropriate solution at the earliest.
