I was able to reproduce this problem when the number of bands is
several thousands. It seems to be some issue of the Tk (it cannot
handle so many check-buttons in a single row).

I made a workaround: when the numbers of bands is larger than 500, the
band-selection buttons are now arranged in a more convenient matrix
form.

Please try the current fix and let me know if it works for you, i.e.,
copy the attached file "wnFS.tcl" into $XCRYSDEN_TOPDIR/Tcl/fs/
subdirectory.

Best regards,
