Hi Christopher, Thanks for the fix. I agree with you that it'd be good to fix the ptII branch in svn for Kepler 2.3. Before creating a new patch release, I would wait until we've had more time to test since there could be additional Java 7 problems. --dan On 2/16/12 9:53 AM, Christopher

Hi Daren, I get the same behavior with Windows 7. The error is the same for both Listen to Actor and editing a Python script: java.lang.NullPointerException at ptolemy.actor.gui.TextEditor.getBackground(TextEditor.java:144) at java.awt.Window.setBackground(Unknown Source) at

I can use Listen to Actor for Kepler 2.3 on Mac OS X, but not under Windows. When I select the option from the context menu, nothing happens. Also, when I try to edit a script for the Python actor, I get an error message Failed to open a dialog to edit the target (null) - this doesn't bother me
