[bug] crash when touching/clicking many times

I unfortunately noticed that too many clicks on a canvas/sketchpad may cause Opensesame to crash.
a simple example:

set background "black"

set subject_nr "0"

define sequence experiment
    run getting_started "always"
    run welcome "always"
    run loop "always"

define notepad getting_started

    Hi,
    Welcome to OpenSesame 2.9.6 "Hesitant Heisenberg"!
    If you are new to OpenSesame, you may wish to follow one of the tutorials,
    which can be found online. There are also many example experiments, which will
    help you to get started with creating your own. These can be found in the
    "examples" folder provided with OpenSesame or, again, online.
    For more information, please refer to OpenSesame documentation area:

if you touch many time opensesame crashes; probably during the repetition of the trial (which on my tablet maybe takes much more time than a PC)

this is bad since I'm going to leave the tablet unattended during my experiment

Hi,

For me, it doesn't crash. Could you provide some more details:

• What happens when a crash occurs? Do you see an error message? And, if so, what does it say?
• Is it just a matter of endlessly clicking a mouse button (on a pc) or tapping the screen (on a table). If so, how often do you have to click approximately?

Cheers,
Sebastiaan
