I see the additional information, but getting multiple pages of code pointed out as the source isn't very helpful. In this case the error occurs because I broke the contract of the editor-admin% method get-view by supplying a non-number in one of the boxes in which it expects return values. I don't understand your explanation of why it cannot find the line that produced the non-number input to +, or even the line with that addition outside my source file. From the user perspective it just looks like racket blames a semi-random line, which in this case is responsible for some of the construction of the objects, but hardly the real source of the error.

Re: [racket-dev] wrong line marked as source of error?
I think this is probably due to a fairly fundamental problem in the way that Racket builds stacks. The whole process is pretty complex, but at a high-level, there are two ways that stack information is obtained: one way (via the errortrace library) is very accurate when it exists, but it does not always exist (specifically, the regions of the stack that correspond to code in the distribution's collects directory are missing from the stack); the other way is via a much less precise mechanism, but is always available. I believe that your screenshot shows you using the former way and so you're missing the part of the stacktrace that is inside the set-admin method.

Oh, and one more comment: did you try clicking on the left-hand little red icon? That shows you the part of the stack that is in other files (if there is any to be shown).
