Description

Patched problem with Scroll Notifications.
FileMaker 16.0.4 on MacOS 10.13.3 has a bug that can cause crashes with scroll gestures.
Crash reports show message about "terminating with uncaught exception" and stack trace shows _beginScrollGesture method called which posts a notification to a non-existing observer.
The plugin, if activated with this function will watch for those notifications and just ignore them, so the observer is not called and the crash does not happen.
