extrapixel Full Member Offline Posts: 210 Switzerland	accessing "frame" from eclipse Jul 26th, 2007, 7:03pm   hi, After a bit of trial and error I got my sketch running as an applet from within eclipse. However, if I try to call a method of "frame", e.g. frame.setUndecorated(true), I get a NullPointerException. Actually frame is null. Is there a way to access the window/frame properties within eclipse? Thanks! Patrick

PApplet is a component, so you're supposed to make your own Frame and embed as you wish: http://dev.processing.org/reference/core/javadoc/processing/core/PApplet.html
