Not enough memory error when up-scaling an image

[Ishi]

I am still on v 4.2.7 and was offline for over a week. I do not know if this has been addressed with v.4.2.8 but the changelog does not say so.

 

When I tried to resize an image that is 1489x1013 to 300% with 4 layers, I get an error dialog of not enough memory.  I have a smaller image opened and when I close that, the resize did work one time. Its a relatively small image and I do not know why PDN would list that as not enough memory when I have a significant amount of free RAM even with a 2GB laptop.

 

Here is the crashlog:

It's not lying, it's not a bug  You just don't have enough memory available to complete the operation.
