'None' keyword in JS instead of 'null'

My experiment has several text components that are initialized as blank and updated by frame. When I run it on Pavlovia, I get the error “ReferenceError: None is not defined” and on looking at the js code I see that the text components are being initialized with a None keyword:

DisplayResponseText = new visual.TextStim({
    win : psychoJS.window,
    name : 'DisplayResponseText',
    text : None,
    font : 'Arial',
    pos : [0, 0], height : 0.1,  wrapWidth : 1.5, ori: 0,
    color : new util.Color('white'),  opacity : 1,
    depth : -5.0 
  });

(These are the only instances of None in the js code.) I manually replaced all instances of None with null and it cleared up (after I cleared the cache, that is—am I the only one who took forever to figure that out?) I don’t need help with it now, just reporting the bug.

Hi Renee,

Thanks, that is very useful to both report the bug but most especially also to diagnose the cause. Would you mind reporting it at the Github repository page? Link below:

Bugs and fixes very easily get lost in the forum here: they are much more likely to get addressed if put in the systematic issue tracking system on Github.
