In Builder: Experiment -> README... gives error message

If this template helps then use it. If not then just delete and start from scratch.

OS (e.g. Win10): Win10
PsychoPy version (e.g. 1.84.x): v2021.1.2
Standard Standalone? (y/n) If not then what?: Standalon

In Builder I clicked on Experiment → README… and received the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “C:\Program Files\PsychoPy3\lib\site-packages\psychopy\app\builder\builder.py”, line 766, in editREADME
self.showReadme()
File “C:\Program Files\PsychoPy3\lib\site-packages\psychopy\app\builder\builder.py”, line 825, in showReadme
if not self.readmeFrame.IsShown():
AttributeError: ‘NoneType’ object has no attribute ‘IsShown’

I was asked to inform the developers. Done.

Hehe, thanks Sven. I can see the issue there (trying to show a readme that doesn’t currently exist) and I’ll make sure we handle it more neatly :slight_smile:

Hi Jon,

the README.txt is present in the folder and it is shown with loading the psyexp-file. Clicking Experiment → README… after loading the psyexp-file gives the error message.

Yours - Sven
