I get crashes when having multiple code panes open under VS2012. The crashes happen soon after opening the second pane, but I can't reproduce them reliably. I don't have any extensions other than the stock ones installed. I am working in a project with both C++ and C# files. Disabling VAX does prevent crashes.

If you need any more info let me know. Right now I'm stuck working with one code window.

What do you mean by multi-window?
How are you opening the second pane?

Dragging one of the tabs and snapping it to the right so I have two windows side by side. I haven't tested if it still crashes if you grab a tab pull it off to any other location.

I was able to crash it only by clicking between visual studio and an explorer window. It takes variable amounts of time, but usually less than a minute.

I click in the text editor. Basically click left side, click non-vs window, click right side, click non-vs window, repeat. That does it eventually.

I was just coming to report this as well.

It's excruciatingly consistent. Open any two source file (.h/.inc/.cpp), put two tabs side by side so I can see both files at once (like the above poster's pic), and moments later (while editing one of the files): CRASH.

It happened over & over & over - and I finally today disabled VAX to see if it was the cause, or if VS2012 was at fault.

So far - I'm certain it was VAX (or a bug in VS2012 elicited by VAX). I was never able to do side by side editing for more than about 1-2 min. before. I've been without a crash for over half an hour (which is essentially infinitely longer than previous records).

Using VAX 10.7.1916.0 built 2012.09.11
Windows 7, SP 1, x64

Build 1917 seems to have fixed this. It hasn't crashed for about an hour. Thanks.
