Hello,

I wrote my own editor (GraphicalEditorWithPalette) and I often get NPE's.
The stacktrace ends with
org.eclipse.gef.tools.ToolUtilities.getSelectionWithoutDepen dencies(ToolUtilities.java:35)
I get this NPE always if I click around and drag & drop very fast. So I
tried what happens in flowExample (GraphicalEditorWithPalette) if I do
that - and I got this exception, too.

Anyone knows what I am doing wrong or how to solve this problem?

thx a lot - steven

I can't reproduce this. Based on the info you provided, it seems
DragEditPartsTracker's current viewer is null when it calls the
ToolUtilities method. Maybe you should try to debug why it's null. Open a
bug report if the problem persists.

This is usually the result of focus lost events. Is there anything causing
focus to get lost while the mouse button is down? what platform?

Hallo,

I do not think that anything loses focus. I am just clicking and get this
excption. I use eclipse 3.0.1 on Windows.
Does anybody get the same exceptions in flowexample? in shapeexample I get
no exceptions...
