Unable to export image when using Colours library

Hello awesome people,

I recently discovered NodeBox and i'm floored. Many thanks!!
Using it to create some lovely wallpapers for myself.
I tried exporting images when writing a script that uses the colours library and it is crashing NodeBox without fail.

I'm on Leopard and using the latest version of NodeBox 1.9.2

This problem does not happen when i use other libraries or when writing simple scripts without using libraries.

If it helps i can send the console output etc. Would be happy to help get to the bottom of the problem if you want. Want me to create a ticket?

Many thanks anyway!!!

Cheers,
Aditya

Hi Aditya,

Can you send me an example script that crashes NodeBox, along with the Console output?

Hi Tom,

I tried exporting an image from the colours example files. Try any example file. I'll send the console output as soon as I get back to my Mac.

Cheers,
Aditya

I'm having the exact same problem. Can export fine from anything but trying to export anything from the colors file crashes me :/

Hi Zach,

I need some more information to figure out what is going wrong.

1) Are you on Intel or PowerPC and what version of Mac OS X are you using?

2) Can you export an image from the following script:

colors = ximport("colors")
background(0)

sorry about taking so long to reply.
I cannot export the small script you provided.
also, im unsure of what console application you mean, but the error nodebox gives me is:
(AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'writeToFile_atomically_')

so it sounds like what Edwin posted above
I'm on a power pc running 10.5.1
__version__ = "1.9.2.1" from __init__.py
