==Bugs==
Known bugs in the application (as of the mac13 version) include:* The exportare described at [[Mac gtk-archive wizard window refuses to close when it has finished. In fact, the archive should be perfect, osx port bugs]] and it's just the window that won't close. A workaround is a good idea to exit GRAMPS and restart itlook there for workaraounds.* Using the Apple conventional menu (the one at the top left of the screenIn particular, not the one attached to the GRAMPS main window) to try to exit GRAMPS by picking gramps-close does not work. Clicking the red button at the top left of the GRAMPS main window does work.* GRAMPS crashes in Hebrew. A workaround is to avoid using Hebrew.* GRAMPS produces strange mixtures of languages if the first entry on the list of preferred languages is Macs with a dialect of English for which GRAMPS has no translation and the second is a language for which GRAMPS does have a translation. A workaround is to list English (as opposed to a regional version of like British English) immediately after the dialect in the language preference table with System Preferences - International. For example, a sensible as their first choice for a language preference list might be "British English" - "English" - "Francais". GRAMPS is written in need a highly international version of tweak to keep Gramps talking English so this should inconvenience no one!* Dropping a jpeg file from the Desktop onto an empty media gallery doesn't work. A workaround is to use the "+" button of the media gallery to add it instead. Once the media gallery has at least one entry, dropping a jpeg (etc) onto it should create a new media object present in the gallery.* Dropping a jpeg (etc) file with spaces in the pathname (and other strange characters too) onto a media gallery doesn't work. A workaround is to use the "+" button of the media gallery to add it instead.* Dragging and dropping images quickly and carelessly around a media gallery page can crash GRAMPS. Exactly how this happens is obscure. A workaround is to restart GRAMPS if it crashes. Dragging and dropping with care at a reasonable speed is suggested.
