#:If using Seamly2D for GNU/Linux, start the program from a terminal with the command <code>seamly2D</code>. Sometimes the program will output error messages that can help. This is especially important if Seamly2D crashes completely without warning. After reproducing the bug, copy the error messages from your terminal into somewhere where you can save them for the bug report. It is better to give too much information than not enough.
#:To narrow down the exact cause of the problem, attempt to reproduce it in other ways. Prepare yourself to explain how to reproduce it in your bug report. If you are running Seamly2D in another language, try switching your Seamly2D to English so you can report menu items exactly with the English menu item name. It helps - developers generally understand English. If you cannot reproduce the bug, assume it was some weird freak event then don’t report it. If it recurs, consult with the [https://forum.seamly.net Seamly2D Forum]. Perhaps someone else can find the key to reproducing it.
# Prepare to face the horror. Go to the Seamly2D github repo [https://bitbucketgithub.orgcom/disminefashionfreedom/valentinaseamly2d/issues?status=new&status=open/ issue tracker]. If you don’t have a login yet, follow the directions to create one. The reason to do this and report a bug with your e-mail address is so the developers can contact you if they have any questions. That way if we miss some useful tidbit of debugging information, they can tell you what to do to get it. Log in.
# Select “Create issue”. This opens the actual entry form.
# Here you have to tell the developers everything about your system, your version of Seamly2D, and your bug. Just do your best to tell them about it. A crappy bug report is better than no report at all, but if you write down everything you can clearly, you will create a decent bug report.
