CharacterTool b10 shows blank screen

Post by almagest »

Hi,

I'm running Ubuntu Linux with JRE 1.6.0_07-b06, and the CharTool b10 jar & launch script. Every other RPTools app seems to work fine, except CharTool. It will start up and show a completely blank sheet named "Unnamed". Deleting and adding new sheets doesn't change this, nor does switching the game type. I also tried the "Help -> Reset Char Tool" option, to no avail. Also, choosing "File->New" will give me the following error:

Code: Select all

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException
	at net.rptools.chartool.ui.CharToolActions.saveIfNeeded(CharToolActions.java:395)
...
Any ideas on what I can do to get this tool working? Thanks.

Is this still the window resize problem? The first time you load up CharacterTool, it defaults to having the calculation window (which appears blank) as taking up the entire screen. Plull the dividing bar down and you'll see the sheet, and it will save your settings after that. I thought that another build got put out so as not to confuse people about that.
