Hi Curtis,
I should have checked the log myself. Thanks for doing that. My main need is to support legacy QuickTime plugins I wrote eons ago that are still in use for compressing large Nomarski 4d datasets in my lab. There are other options, but it would be nice to maintain legacy support. Ironically, everything still works fine in Windows 10…Apple makes it hard to stay with older OS revisions!

I’d found the same (normal) behavior with the ImageJ2/Fiji script editor, as well as the one in Micro-Manager…

Cheers,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,

I am able to reproduce that bug on my High Sierra system running with Java
6 (in both 32-bit and 64-bit modes).

It does not happen with the ImageJ2 Script Editor -- only with the ImageJ1
text editor. (It might be a Swing vs. AWT thing, but that is pure
speculation.)

I also see an exception stack trace [1] every time I press a key,
regardless of which ImageJ window is currently active. This error may be
related to the keystrokes being eaten in some circumstances. It appears to
be a bug in Java -- or perhaps more likely, the legacy Apple Java 6
interacting with the newer High Sierra OS.
