Strange ERA Error Location

I'm seeing this now and then, always from a non-English language. An Unhandled Exception pointing to the declaration of variables in a function. I assume when this happens the user experiences a crash? It never crashes for me on my EDGE 1030, and over 1200 have downloaded it, so I imagine it is generally reliable. So some strange corner case is causing this for non-English languages now and then. Any idea? The simulator peak memory 122.4 of 124.6, but that should be plenty of headroom. And if this was a memory issue, it would say that. Those variables aren't overloading a global or anything like that - unique to this function.

The line numbers can be a few lines off. Most probably it's about the real code line where you call pickFont. I don't think the language plays any role, probably it's just a statistical thing. I guess…

The error's title is also not always very useful, so that can also trick you. How much memory this device has?

YOU'RE RIGHT. I have a dual personality data field. Full Screen or Small Field. Weather uses the "mode" to adapt to the two personalities. In the full screen instance, I have several regions, one being focused on Power Data. So the region boundaries are set in the array PowerBox. I run the Full Screen and the smaller field (same data field) under the Map View. What I never thought about was someone ONLY running the smaller field instance. In that case, PowerBox is null. BOOM! So you're right, ERA pointed a few lines before the actual offender. I'd never seen this happen before. THANKS!! Fixed.
