    {question}
    Hi.I'm not good at English, but I want to question about Inkscape here.

    When I try to "Rotate", often an error causes and Inkscape crashes.
    For example, "shift" key + Drag, move center point and press "]" or "[" key to rotate an object.
    Then error occurred  with error message.
    Error message is as follows.

    "Inkscape encountered an internal error and will close now."

    Can I ask you about this problem?
    if you don't mind, please tell me some information.

    {operating environment}
    Mac OS X:High Sierra 10.13.6

          Model Identifier: iMac12,1
          Processor Name: Intel Core i5
          Processor Speed: 2.5 GHz
          Memory: 4 GB

    Hi there @Okurage. How are you doing today?

    Have you tried doing the same but with a newer version of inkscape? We currently have 0.92.4 version and, in paralel, we also have 1.0 beta 2 version.

    Please try it out and let us know how it went! Any questions please feel free to post here.

    Hi Okurage,
    I have tried this with Sierra and XQuartz 2.7.11 and Inkscape 0.92.2, but have found no errors.
    The developer's version 1.0 beta works fine under MacOS High Sierra. That is a good tip from Victor.
    You do not use XQuartz with that new Inkscape version, it installs very easy.

    @Victor, for MacOS+XQuartz there seems to be no version 0.92.4. If you click on that download link, it refers to 0.92.2.

    @Victor Westmann, @Kirstie

    Thank you both. I was able to solve the problem.

    Thanks to the simple and appropriate advice, even if I was not good at English, I proceeded without hesitation!

    I installed a new version and it works fine at this point.

    But since I am a beginner, I may ask questions again in this forum.

    At that time, I would appreciate it if I could study like this time.

    see you!

    Hi @Okurage, I hope you are doing fine.

    That is not a problem! Inkscape is made of a majority of volunteers from multiple different countries across the world.

    Feel free to get in touch with us. For faster guidance search for the inkscape_user chat room. Happy new year!

    @Kirstie thank you for the correction. Appreciate it.
