Here is what I have. Still getting the same problem with chart not initializing on my end. If you put in logs before and after the constructor, it's returning somewhere in the chart constructor where it calls its superclass constructor. I have no idea why though. -Sam -----Original Message----- From: MASON Multiagent Simulation Toolkit [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Sean Luke Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2011 11:43 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Creating Charts in Mason v15 On Mar 2, 2011, at 11:32 AM, Samuel W.

These methods will still work but you're right, they might go away. Instead, use scheduleRepeatingImmediatelyAfter(new Steppable() { ... }); and Frame.setVisible(true); pack() does not set a frame to visible to my knowledge. > The chart never gets initialized in my init method for some reason. > When the start method is called, chart is null. In the version of the code I sent you as well? That would be most unusual -- it works fine here. Look carefully at the difference between your code and the one I provided, particularly the init() and start() methods. Since mine is working, there's got to be some important difference. Also, just for debugging consistency, make sure you're using the version of JFreeChart that's provided in the libraries.zip file on the MASON website. Sean
