[kepler-dev] Can not invoke Graphic Editor and open sample files

[Chad Berkley]

Hi Tim,

This is most likely a problem with the enhancements that we made to the 
actor library for alpha 3 which aren't completely done yet (hence the 
alpha release).  My guess is that it tried to save your composite actor 
to the actor library moml file 
(kepler/configs/ptolemy/configs/kepler/basicKeplerActorLibrary.xml) 
which now uses a different format than what it used to use.  check out 
that file and see if you see markup for your new actor.  If you do, 
remove it and kepler will probably work again.  we'll have to check out 
how to get back the functionality of saving actors to the libarary.

let me know how that works.

thanks,
chad
