Description:
Trying to export a schema to any non-script format hangs Workbench indefinitely.

How to repeat:
1. Open a schema
2. File > Export > Export as PNG OR Export as SVG OR Export as Single Page PDF OR Export as Single Page PostScript File
3. Workbench hangs indefinitely, not responsive - must force exit

Thank you for the bug report. I couldn't repeat the behavior reported, could you please provide the model file which causes the issue on your side?. Thanks in advance.

It isn't confined to a single model file. Even on a fresh, new model it hangs. I thought it was a problem with my system - I uninstalled, deleted old program files folder and application data folder, then reinstalled it. On fresh startup - File > Save As hangs/crashes.

I can however open an existing model, make changes, and save those changes. Basically anything that requires a system file browsing window hangs the program.

I'll attach a model file as well, even though the crashing is not specific to just this file.

Both versions 5.1.16 and 5.2 alpha crash any time a file browser dialog tries to open. I've reinstalled 5.0.30 and everything works fine with that version.

This has been quite peculiar. I guess I'll just use 5.0.30 and redo the changes I've made to my model since the upgrade.

This is a duplicate of bug #45930 actually.

Unfortunately, I am not able to repeat this.
