UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Â Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
Hi,
First off thank you for the 1.049 update! Â There are some nice improvements to APP. Â I have a new problem now though. Â After completing an rgb combine I am unable to save the unstretched image. Â I am, however, able to save the stretched image with no problems. Â The error I receive is:
Error: Java.Lang.NullPointerException
Cause: null
dA.a (Unknown Source)

Best Regards,

Hi Ricky,
You're most welcome 😉
So you are clicking on save below the histogram without the stretch selectbox enabled?
Does it fail on FITS, JPG & TIFF or only with particular settings for saving ?
Kind regards,
Mabula
Hi Mabula,
It fails as soon as I uncheck "stretch" and click "save"...it doesn't get to file name and file type.

Does it happen while you are working in the RGB combine tool?
yes...after making my combinations...
thinking about this now...I think I tried to save after "calculate" and not after "create"...let me check...
What happens if you click on "create" on the left? Then it should save the unstretched data.
Saving using the save button on the right should work also, so I'll investigate.
Mabula
I just reapplied rgb combine and clicked "create" and image appeared but the "save" button was not active to save. Â My work around was to exit APP then restarted then loaded the fits file and resave as tiff.
Thank you Ricky,
I'll test this myself 😉
So at least, now you have the RGB combined image in TIFF format?
Mabula
Â
Yes...I have my unstretched tiff image. Â I will post my NGC6888 in the gallery forum later today.
Â
Thanks for your assistance Mabula!

Best Regards,

Great, thank you Ricky for sharing the issue 😉
I'll try to fix this soon...
