Jabref 2.11b4 GUI drawing issues #184
Comments
This might be Swing rendering appears broken in JDK 1.8, correct in JDK 1.7. Solution: Set the global environment variable |
@stefan-kolb I tested with the suggested fix. Neither setting the environment variable nor starting java with I started Jabref using the command line this time and I get the following output:
|
I can confirm the Exception posted by @asteppke and the drawing problems. I'm running an up-to-date OpenJDK (1.8.0_60-b24) on Arch Linux. |
I just had the same problem under Win7, JRE 1.8.0_60-b27, but only under biblatex mode and wihtout getting GUI-related exceptions. Setting the environment variable did not help. Since this appears to be a JDK / graphics card configuration issue, there is really nothing we can do (except for being aware of it). |
See #149 - there seems to be a similar issue on Mac OS X using BibLaTeX mode. |
Strangely enough, I don't have the problem with the .jar availiable for download (I used to build JabRef on my own). There are still some issues when I connect and disconnect additional screens - but I currently can't consistently reproduce that and it's most probably not a JabRef-specific issue. |
I just fixed another issue on master which caused jabref to display nothing when using biblatex... but I cannot reproduce the exceptions and display issues shown above (either in master nor using 2.11b4). |
Could this be related to the flickering problem solved last week? |
Should not be related as the 2.11b branch was never updated to the new swinglabs version which caused the flickering issue. |
I have the same problem using the latest version of java Java installed (1.8.0_66) on Win7 ... :( |
Hi @mcjcyo, |
thanks for your interest @matthiasgeiger |

Thank you very much. This is the same problem as above - but we were not able to reproduce it on our developer machines 😞 Can you do me a favor and send me a copy of your preferences (you can export them in the preferences Dialog (Options-> Preferences) -> left bottom "Export preferences") and - if it does not contain any sensitive information - the *.bib file you have currently open? |
The issue is caused by a missing icon for one or more external file types: If no icon is defined for an external file type, and the *.bib file contains an entry linked with two or more such files the NullPointerExceptions occur. _Fix for users:_ If this does not work: Hit the "Default" button - caution: This will revert all your application settings! @asteppke @derTimme I hope this also solves your issues! @JabRef/developers ... what I do not understand is: Why are some icons missing at all? |
well, I am sorry @matthiasgeiger but I have all icons present, as by the default choice : please consider that the problem occurs only if I have a file open |
This is not the answer I wanted to hear ;-) Can you please check whether this version works correctly for you? |
I am sorry it still the same :( 2015-11-19 6:44 GMT+09:00 Matthias Geiger notifications@github.com:

you do not think that, in my case, 2015-11-19 14:21 GMT+09:00 Jc Crivello jc.crivello@gmail.com:
|
Can you please recheck the "error console" with the version linked above - is there still the same message? Do you have the problem only with your "main bib-file" or even with a small test bib file containing only a single test entry? |
Your right, I close my database and use an other simple one, it works smoothly. Please find my database file, and let me know if you have error with. I paste bellow the console error windows without any databse many thanks for your support, Nov 19, 2015 5:07:41 PM org.java.plugin.registry.xml.ManifestParser

Maybe, it's |

Sorry... I currently don't have much time... A quick evaluation of the bib file you sent me showed, that the problem is caused by those entries who refer to "C:\some\path\to\the\file.pdf" - the problem with those entries is, that the special characters colon ":" and "" are not escaped to ":" and "".
However, I had no time to investigate how this wrong entries are created. |
GREAT GREAT ! I recently did a citation importation from the Sciencedirect website, My apologize for your time lost for this error. |
If this is solved, we can close the issue. Further discussion on improvements can carry on in JabRef#52 |
With the current Jabref beta 2.11b4 I get here on Windows 7 a lot of GUI drawing issues. It seems that most parts of the window are only drawn if I drag the mouse cursor over the window:
Jabref itself runs fine, no error messages or other problems. I am using a relatively recent java version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_31-b13). Is there anything that can be done about this issue?
