Hi Richard,

Firstly if you click on the measure button it stops the painter shader
That's deliberate. Perhaps one day you'll be able to use them together but you can't right now.
Ah I see, its just that that behavior is different than the way the adjacent buttons work, if the scene is paused then clicking on the atmosphere, lighting or textures dose nothing. I was expecting the same behavior from the measure button.
The second point makes sense now

By the way in testing that I did manage to crash Terragen.
I placed the camera in an overhead position.
Created a new painter shader.
Watied for the preview to finish rendering, then hit PAUSE
Painted a wiggly line with the Painter shader
Zoomed out a bit without allowing it to re render the preview (still paused)
Painted in a blank un-rendered area of the preview srceen
Immediate crash "Terragen has stopped working. Windows is checking to see if there is a solution"
I repeated this several times with the same result.
Obviously this is not going to crop up often and is not so much a bug, rather using the program badly.

Thanks
Richard
