Edge link tool hang

[tripstar76]

Anyone having problems with the latest daily freecad where if you choose the create edge link tool? For me it hangs, and I have to kill freecad to exit. It's made freecad for my purposes unusable

Actually you should have discussed the problem here before creating a bug report, as the bug reporting process states. You should now at least create a backlink from the bug to this discussion.
And you should make clear if FreeCAD hangs or if it crashes or both. A crash is a sudden unexpected termination of the program. Which is kind of opposite to hanging.

My apologies. This is my first time at doing a bug report.
I had a quick look through the titles to see if there was a similar bug report, but as a novice, I must have missed the one linked above.

The program hangs.

I'll create the backlink now
