I am not sure how I can reproduce this in a minimum example, but, my code ran fine in 5.1.5 but with 5.1.6, it crashes when I maximize while getting the text width with a null pointer exception.

It is during the caching of a glyph.

{"name":"607536","src":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/1\/1\/119a0d74e0b5bc6b8a85b1d9d6cc174d.png","w":1040,"h":602,"tn":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/1\/1\/119a0d74e0b5bc6b8a85b1d9d6cc174d"}

This happens here:

    glyph_data = alloc_glyph_region(font_data, ft_index,
       w + 2, h + 2, false, glyph, lock_more);

Then here:

      cache_glyph(data, face, ft_index, glyph, true);

Then here:

   return f->vtable->text_length(f, ustr);

Then here:

  int Allegro5Font::getTextWidth( const std::string &text ) const
  {
    if(font)
    {
      return al_get_text_width(font,text.c_str());
    }

    return 0;
    
  }

Then here:

  void Label::resizeToContents()
  {
    double computedWidth = getFont()->getTextWidth(getText()) + getMargin(SIDE_LEFT) + getMargin(SIDE_RIGHT);
    if (this->getMaxSize().getWidth() > computedWidth)
      computedWidth = this->getMaxSize().getWidth();
    _setSizeInternal(Dimension(int(computedWidth), getFont()->getLineHeight() * getNumTextLines() + getMargin(SIDE_TOP) + getMargin(SIDE_BOTTOM)));
  }

Then here:

  void Label::setFont( const Font *font )
  {
    Widget::setFont(font);
    if(isAutosizing())
    {
      resizeToContents();
    }
    updateLabel();
  }

Then here:

  void GameInformation::resize( int w, int h )
  {
    float ctrl = 0.75f;
    float scale = getProportions()->getScale();
    if(scale > 0.75f)
    {
      scale = 0.75f;
    }

    m_tableLabel->setFont(m_font->getFont(scale * 2.4f * ctrl));
    m_tableLabel->resizeToContents();
...

Then here:

  void GameScene::resizeEvent( int width, int height )
  {
    m_proportions.resize(width,height);

    //resize the elements
    for(size_t i = 0; i < m_dynamicElements.size();++i)
    {
      m_dynamicElements[i]->resize(width,height);
    }
  }

Then here:

  void SceneManager::sendResizeMessage( int w, int h )
  {
    al_acknowledge_resize(m_devices->getDisplay()->getContext());
    m_g.resizeBuffer(w,h);
    m_currentScene->processGuiResizeEvent();
    m_currentScene->resizeEvent(
      w,h);
    Log::write("Scene Manager","Resize Event: Width:" +  StringUtil::toString(w) + 
      " Height:" + StringUtil::toString(h));
  }

Then here:

#SelectExpand
void SceneManager::defaultBeginEventHandler( ALLEGRO_EVENT*evt )
{
  3
  m_currentScene->processGuiInputEvent(evt);
  5
  if(evt->type == ALLEGRO_EVENT_TIMER && evt->timer.source == m_gameTimer)
  {
    m_needsRedraw = true;
    m_currentScene->processGuiLogic();
    m_devices->getNetClient()->tick();
  }
  else if(evt->type == ALLEGRO_EVENT_DISPLAY_RESIZE)
  {
    sendResizeMessage(evt->display.width,evt->display.height);
  }
}

Then here:

#SelectExpand
void SceneManager::run()
{  
  m_devices->setSceneMessenger(this);
  4
  al_start_timer(m_gameTimer);
  6
  //is the event handled?
  bool handled = false;
  ALLEGRO_EVENT next;
  int numTicks = 0;
 11
  //main loop
  while(m_gameIsRunning)
  {
  
    handled = false;
    al_wait_for_event(queue,&evt);
 18
    bool hasNext = al_peek_next_event(queue,&next);
    if(hasNext && next.type == ALLEGRO_EVENT_TIMER)
    {
      al_drop_next_event(queue);
    }
    //render the scene
    if(m_needsRedraw && al_is_event_queue_empty(queue))
    {
      m_g.begin();
      m_currentScene->render();
      m_g.end();
    
      m_needsRedraw = false;
    }
 33
    defaultBeginEventHandler(&evt);
    m_currentScene->processEvent(&evt,handled);
 36
    //do default behavior if event was not handled by the scene
    if (!handled)
    {
      defaultEndEventHandler(&evt);
    }
 42
    processMessages();
  }
}

Then problem seems to be that:
ptr = data->page_lr->data;

page_lr is NULL.

Probably the lock fails:

      data->page_lr = al_lock_bitmap_region(page,
         data->lock_rect.x, data->lock_rect.y,
         data->lock_rect.w, data->lock_rect.h,
         ALLEGRO_PIXEL_FORMAT_ABGR_8888_LE, ALLEGRO_LOCK_WRITEONLY);

I do not know why, but the logs have this to say:

I am starting to wonder if I just should switch to OpenGL exclusively. I love the idea of D3D, but when it loses the device, it has created so many bugs for me over time.

If I have time I will try to make a minimum example.

Thanks
