Yes, both 2.6.1 and 3.2.1 are on the same machine.

Test: change setings; load data; change from solid color to color by varaible.

Immediate=on Strips=on => crashes
Immediate=on Strips=off => works
Immediate=off Strips=on => crashes
Immediate=off Strips=off => works

The results are the same for 2.6.1 and 3.2.1 except that the last case cannot 
be selected in 2.6.1.

Changing from a case that works to one that usually causes a crash does NOT 
cause a crash if the change is made while the object is still displayed. Thus 
the desired case must be set before loading and displaying the data.

No
