Steema Central

Hi,

I am using the teechart in my project and I am having problems with the method:

chart.clone ();

The problem happens when I want to open the same graph in a new Frame. To do that I am using the function

chart.clone ();

The Exception that is generated when I to open the charts Editor in main Frame and After that when I generate the new frame have the following error:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException

For development use NetBeans IDE 5.5 and TeeChart Java v1 Build 1.0.1.818

Please, help me, I need this solution in my project.

Thank you,

Ricardo.

Hi Secundino,

We have tested here using NetBeans 5.5 and JDK 1.6 and works fine. I've sent you the files we used. Could you please test if it works fine at your end?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, Narcís.

Please, send me the files:

JFrameNewVisual.java
TChartAWTDemo.java

Referring the classes JFrameNewVisual and TChartAWTDemo .

I need this code to verify what you used to solve the problem!

I am awaiting! Thank you!

Ricardo.

Hi Ricardo,

We didn't make any change to the files you sent. We just compiled them under the environment I commented and sent you the compiled files so that you could test them at your end.
