ICEM error when I click "Split Block"

Hi,

Any time I press "Split Block" ICEM gets the error:

Code:

An internal error has occurred:

bad window path name "0"

You can report the error to the maintainers of this software, skip the error and continue working, or view a stack trace.

If I press continue, then ICEM stays open but nothing happens when I click any button, so I have to close and restart ICEM.

I have ICEM installed on a 64 bit Red Hat Linux and a 32 bit OpenSUSE Virtual Machine and both suffer from this error. This used to work for me, I think this error has started happening ever since I upgraded to v13.

Any help or suggestions are welcome,

Philip

I solved this problem by removing the ".aienv_options" file in my home directory.

Obviously some setting in it was causing the problem.

Thank you so much, Philip! I had problem with clicking "Apply" when splitting the block. Followed your advice and everything is working now. Damn, I was thinking about reinstalling Windows to solve the issue.

Thank you again!
