Please go here: https://github.com/larskanis/fxruby/issues/2 I''ve created that issue in the FXRuby bug tracker, Lars Kanis, then maintainer says: "This is actually a bug in the fox toolkit. If you set the FXText to styled=true, then the memory needed for getStyle is allocated. If not libfox crashes.May you open a bug report on fox-toolkit?

I have an fxRuby GUI app that I am having problems with. I want to bring up a help window from the main window when someone selects a help/help from the help menu. I have created a helpWindow that inherits from FXDialogBox. It has an FXMenuBar, FXStatusBar, and an FXtext which gets filled with help text from a file. When the help/help menu is selected from the main window, I make a new helpWindow, and call create on it. This all seems to work well, but I was unhappy with the look and feel of the FXDialog.
