The cut tool works OK for me with 0.97d... I have several stupid questions:

- Have you converted the shape to mesh? The cut tool cannot cut parametric shapes.
- Is your shape grouped? If yes, ungroup it...
- Are both "back" and "front" buttons enabled? Maybe you're trying to cut back face while "back" is disabled...

If these 3 points didn't help you, I guess you found a bug... Or I forgot something :-\

The cutting tool works fine for me too, same version.

If anybody got a minute please check if the crash detailed here can be reproduced by someone else.

Thanks guys though for the comments.
