[Newbies] undefinedobject showflag
Hi Mike, Thanks for the picture. nil is the one and only instance of Undefined object. The error message says that nil does not understand (has no method for) the message "showflap". The question is why is aViewer owner ifNotNilDo: [ :f | ^f flapTab showFlap; yourself ]. trying to send #showFlap to nil. PasteUpMoprh>>flapTab | ww | self isFlap ifFalse:[^nil]. ww _ self world ifNil: [World]. ^ww flapTabs detect:[:any| any referent == self] ifNone:[nil] is returning nil so either "aViewer owner" is not a flap or none of the worlds flapTabs are this one. If you explore how to use the debugger you can actually look to see which is the case. Without knowing how to recreate the problem I couldn't say from the outside. (First rule of troubleshooting is first hand information.) ;-) However, one suggestion would be just abandon the debug window. And then see if anything vital is actually missing. And maybe next time when saving a project, dismiss the viewer flaps from the screen before saving. hth, Yours in curiosity and service, --Jerome Peace *** >mstram mstramba at sympatico.ca >Thu May 24 21:41:47 UTC 2007 wrote: > >I keep getting this message 'undefinedobject showflag', when working with the >viewer for graphically objects and when saving the image.
