I am using Manjaro 64-bit Cinnamon Community Edition, Manjaro is based on Arch Linux. I just built Armory 0.96.2 from the newly updated (stable) master branch, and installed it, in order to try out the new version. Unfortunately I am still having a problem with 0.96.2 which I also had with 0.96.1. Starting with an online watching wallet freshly restored from a digital backup, I create a new unsigned transaction using the coin control menu to select my input(s). I save the unsigned transaction to a USB drive, for offline signing, sign it, and broadcast it. Now, if I want to create another transaction, when I click on the coin control button which would normally open the coin control menu, Armory freezes. Actually perhaps "freeze" isn't the most accurate description. What happens, is the coin control menu does not open, and the armory GUI will not respond to clicks, however, I can still move and minimize the armory wallet window, and the armory main window, but cannot close them. It almost seems like the coin control menu opens, but isn't being displayed, which would mean the other windows wouldn't respond to clicks, or attempts to close them, until I first closed the coin control menu, which of course I wouldn't be able to do, because it isn't showing up. I have included the log from the session when armory "froze" after using the coin control. I replaced occurrences of possible sensitive information with X's. I performed the following actions during this session:  opened Armory, created transaction using coin control to select inputs, saved unsigned transaction to USB, closed "offline transaction" menu, opened wallet "send bitcoins" menu, clicked on "coin control". At this point Armory becomes unresponsive and I killed ArmoryQT and ArmoryDB using the system monitor.

I've tried to reproduce this several times in the past and still can't.

You need to give me more details:

- What fee did you pay?
- Is there change?
- Is the tx RBF?
- How many coins did you select?
- Are the only coins you have left to spend change?
- Does this happen while the tx is unconfirmed? Does it goes back to normal after confirmation
- There's no evidence in your log that you broadcast anything. How did you push this tx?
- Need to see the DB log as well.

Anything you can think of can be a clue. Also make use of paragraphs, it's hard to read a unified blob of text.

  I did some experimenting, and the problem appears to have been particular to my wallet.  I tried running Armory from an Ubuntu Gnome live distro and still had the same problem. I was able to fix it though, after trying different combinations of options in the coin control menu, one of them seems to have resolved the issue.
  It seems rather strange, but my wallet is working fine now, and not freezing at all, so I am happy for that at least. Thanks for all the great work with Armory, it's still the best bitcoin wallet around  Grin

Any idea what triggered it? Any hint can help.

I have no idea what originally caused the problem, but I pretty sure that checking, then un-checking the "Use all selected UTXOs" box is what fixed it.

I've had the same problem and solved it.
You need to remove line 'ccDlgGeometry' from ArmorySettings.txt

The Armory itself is not freezing but rather the coin control child window takes all focus and it's invisible for some reason. Probably it has something to do with resizing live VirtualBox.

I was able to reproduce the bug. It happens on next restart after the coin control was maximized.

i've had this exact same problem.  so does removing that line still fix it?:
