Visual Studio Crashes with ggmap

[amlucius]

I'm producing some heat maps with ggmap. I generally have my plot window on a separate screen from VS and enlarged. VS will crash and re-start when running these maps if the plot device is not already opened. Specifically, it opens to 'Device 0' then stops responding. If I open the plot window/device before running the code for the map, all goes well. This happened in RTVS 1.2 and 1.3.
...

If you have any screenshots demonstrating the issue, please include them as well to help us diagnose it better.

Any chance you can attach logs or send them via Feedback | Send Frown?

Most likely plotImage is null. And it is actually null when plot.IsError == true:

        public async Task LoadPlotAsync(PlotMessage plot, CancellationToken cancellationToken) {
            await _mainThread.SwitchToAsync(cancellationToken);

            var device = FindDevice(plot.DeviceId);
            device.DeviceNum = plot.DeviceNum;

            if (plot.IsClearAll) {
                device.Clear();
            } else if (plot.IsPlot) {
                try {
                    var img = plot.ToBitmapImage();

                    // Remember the size of the last plot.
                    // We'll use that when exporting the plot to image/pdf.
                    device.PixelWidth = img.PixelWidth;
                    device.PixelHeight = img.PixelHeight;
                    device.Resolution = (int)Math.Round(img.DpiX);

                    device.AddOrUpdate(plot.PlotId, img);
                } catch (Exception e) when (!e.IsCriticalException()) {
                }
            } else if (plot.IsError) {
                device.AddOrUpdate(plot.PlotId, null);
            }
