Empty help window

[tischi]

Any ideas what the issue could be?

Hi @tischi ,

That window should be populated from BigWarpHelp.html. How are you running bigwarp? Maybe that html file is missing? It's in the jars though, for example:

$ jar -tf Fiji.app/plugins/bigwarp_fiji-7.0.5.jar  | grep html
viewer/BigWarpHelp.html

[tischi]

It is there. I think it is some UI thread issue...sometimes it works.
Would you recommend launching BigWarp with a SwingUtilitiesInvokeLater or new Thread?

[bogovicj]

I see, weird. Could be a problem on my end - i.e. could be I need SwingUtilitiesInvokeLater for the code that shows that window (?)
Will try to investigate further next week.

Man, I never know....sometimes new Thread helps sometimes SwingUtilities.InvokeLater
But usually it does not hurt to put them.
So, I guess if you could add one of those it could make things more robust.
