Is there anything in Isodraw 7.3 that makes 7.0 macros hang Isodraw?

We've recently upgraded to Isodraw 7.3 from 7.0.

 

We have a macro that draws ribbed pipes but it no longer works properly in 7.3.

 

It's a long macro so I won't put it here unless someone wants me to.

 

The macro has a while loop in it that prompts the user to select a point on a line - it adds ribs along this line each loop until the user exits by clicking in space.

 

It worked fine in 7.0, but in 7.3 it works OK for a few seconds and then Isodraw hangs for several minutes as though it's stuck in an endless loop. It eventually exits the macro.

 

Strange thing though is that it's not based on the number of ribs it draws (i.e. the number of loops) but on time since the macro started - if you pick points quickly, you can get more ribs drawn than if you pick them slowly.

 

Is 7.3 less forgiving of bugs, or could I be using some functions that no longer work properly?

 

Any general guidance would be very welcome. I can post the whole macro if anyone is interested.
