Has anyone figured out a workaround to crashes on closing when you have a toolbaritem and a HTMLViewer on one window? I've tried just about everything and can't get it to stop crashing.

For those who don't know what I'm talking about: Adding a toolbar item and a HTMLViewer onto a window will cause your app to crash on quit.

What I've tried so far:
- Close all toolbar items before quit
- Close HTMLviewer before quit
- Close both of the above before quit
- Close window, wait a few seconds, then quit (manually closing the window before quitting the application seems to stop the crash, but doing it in code doesn't seem to help... unless i did the timer wrong)
- Combinations of the above... many, many times.

Anyone else have anything new?

I wish I did. I reported this back in July, but aside from some brief correspondence from Jon, haven't heard anything. There are two things I can suggest:

1) Sign onto this bug:
<http://www.realsoftware.com/feedback/viewreport.php?reportid=iqasdidf>

2) On the window where I absolutely needed Toolbars and an HTMLViewer, I dropped RB's internal Toolbars and switched to Thom McGrath's HIToolbar classes. I only did this on one window, and it has been a decent workaround.
