So you should either change the title of the CSR back to match the title of the bug -- "Null PulseReceiver in AbstractMasterTimer" -- or change the title of the bug, along with this PR title, to match the CSR. In looking at it, I think the CSR title is more descriptive, so I might suggest some variant of that. Here a slightly shortened suggestion: Animation and AnimationTimer methods must be called on JavaFX Application thread but what you have is fine as well. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1167#issuecomment-1677358792
