Brand new style template throws error on style property

[regmar.hanemann]

I’m running Jasper Studio 6.1.0 and trying to create a style template for a series of reports my colleagues and I have to write - (File/New/Style Template File).  The popup shows.  I enter the name. The new template appears in the editor with one entry called “SimpleStyle”  SimpleStyle contains no attributes.  When I select it (click on it), then in the “Properties” panel select “Style” Jasper Reports throws an error:

 

 

An error has occurred.  See log file for more details.

 

java.lang.NullPointerException

 

 

 

A look into the error log shows :

Is there a known solution to this issue?  Ultimately I’d like to create a series of styles that inherit attributes from each other, so that we can speed up development.
