Where can I start?
Owl:
Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1
64 Bit Operating System
8GB of Ram
AMD Radeon HD 6530D Graphics
Slash Screen: 23-Jan-14
File name: animv0981 (also downloaded it again)
Does this mean that the last software revision change was in this exact area?
" identical to the original release dated November 30, 2014 with a fix for an spline extrusion/filling bug"
As a Newbie, I travel an unpredictable, illogical paths. As a software developer, the way I find problem is to methodically try unusual procedures and parameters.
I would also work backwards from the code looking for a failure path.
For example: There has been talk about how to close an object, yet it seems the software does that automatically ... when there is an extrusion which uses one or both "caps". It seems to me that's where the problem is, the software did not automatically "close".
Owl:
Update: The problem happens on a new version downloaded from the home page. About once every three openings. Once it produces extrusions with no caps, it will do it continuously for all further extrusions. If I click/unclick the two cap buttons (rather than using the defaults from previous attempt) it works correctly.

i have discovered if i click on another tool and return to the path ,then double clicking, another dialogue box opens with the closed option.
kreator:
Try this version, this is a stable 0.98 version (splash V0.98) I think you will find that the 0.981 is a development copy. I use this.
What version of open GL is running on that radeon? If you have 4.4, I had loads of problems with it so reverted back to 4.1.
Use this version in compatibility mode Windows XP SP3 , disable visual themes , and run as administrator
See what happens.
Owl:
Ok down loaded your attached version.
Set this version to: compatibility mode, Windows XP SP3 , disable visual themes and run as administrator.
Did not mess with GL, sorry I have lots of 2D or 3D vector graphics and can not open that can.
Opened the program 12 times and 4 times it failed, ie did not cap the extrusion.
As a software testor my style is to explore every possible variation. When ever the problem happens, I repeat that exact path, I have not found a repeatable pattern.
One time it did something else, it extruded the last line only. It disconnected that line from the other lines in the object.
