Steps to reproduce:

1. Launch Katana, close the viewer Tab in the Katana Layout 

2. Save the layout with a new name

3. Close katana

4. Launch Katana again (Katana will launch with new layout without the Viewer Tab )

5. Add the Viewer Tab and then close the Viewer Tab 

6. Again add the Viewer Tab 

7. Repeat step 5 and 6 multiple times (around 10 times)

Expected behaviour:

There should be no crash

After about 7 to 8 times add/close/add  Viewer Tab, Katana crashes

Workaround:

No known workaround.
