local type definition file

[ychi...@gmail.com]

I downloaded type definition file in order to customize graphic output but run into some unexpected problem.

1) The type definition file is recognized by Egan at start-up and the path to file is identified correctly

2) After I manually select a group of genes (~150) the screen blink twice and I receive the following error message

java.lang.NullPointerException: paint is null

3) After dismissing the box Egan select only few genes (I don't quite understand based on what)
4) When I try to select unselected genes manually I receive the following error message.

Do you have any suggestions how to solve this issue?

Hello,

The error message that you're posting is what results from an invalid type_definitions file.  Can you post the line(s) you added to the file?  The easiest way to troubleshoot adding a new type line is to copy the one above it and then edit it in place.

Good luck,

Jesse
