What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Write following code import controlP5.*;

ControlP5 cp5;

void setup() { size(100,100); cp5 = new ControlP5(this, new ControlFont(createFont("Ubuntu", 12))); }

void draw() { }

2. Run the code

3. Following error is shown Exception in thread "Animation Thread" java.lang.NullPointerException at controlP5.ControlP5.updateFont(Unknown Source) at controlP5.ControlP5.setFont(Unknown Source) at controlP5.ControlP5.<init>(Unknown Source) at sketch_121015b.setup(sketch_121015b.java:29) at processing.core.PApplet.handleDraw(PApplet.java:2103) at processing.core.PGraphicsJava2D.requestDraw(PGraphicsJava2D.java:190) at processing.core.PApplet.run(PApplet.java:2006) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:722)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? - Processing 2.0 Beta 3 - ControlP5 2.0.1 - Ubuntu 12.4

Please provide any additional information below.

I temporary use following workaround: Calling setFont() after initialize ControlP5 without setting the ControlFont

cp5 = new ControlP5(this); cp5.setFont(aControlFont);
