The Jaspersoft Studio in the macOS Big Sur version is broken (does not repaint screen)

confirmed. me too... resorting in using a VM(Windows) for it

Me too... I'm using parallels with windows like a workaround.

Same issue. Studio 6.16.0 on Big Sur 11.0.1 on MacBook Pro. Original issue description is accurate, making using Studio virtually impossible.

Same Issue here, when will this be fixed?

lamentablemente me encuentro en la misma situación que el resto :(

Same issue here. Is it possible there is an issue with JDK?

Confirmed. Same problem here.

Stesso problema. Ho provato con la 6.11 e la 6.16

Same problem. When I insert or move an image element, text element, or any other kind of element, the change seems to take place but I cannot see the new placement until I select something else. This is very frustrating.

Same issue.. :(

Same here. Looking into alternatives like plotly.

Can you provide a little more detail on what TIBCO said? Do they ever plan on supporting Big Sur?

Hi all,

I'm attaching here a jar file that can be used to temporarily address the graphical editor issues until there is not an official release.

 

Here below short instructions:

1. Stop Jaspersoft Studio instance.

2. Locate the installation directory of Jaspersoft Studio: /Applications/TIBCO Jaspersoft Studio 6.16.0.app/.

3. You might want to use the context menu item "Show Package Content" or navigate via terminal to the sub-folder /Applications/TIBCO Jaspersoft Studio 6.16.0.app/Contents/Eclipse/plugins

4. Add the "com.jaspersoft.studio.patch_swt_6.16.0.js-patch01.jar" file via command line or using Finder

5. Restart Jaspersoft Studio normally and verify the problem is solved in the interaction with the design editor.

6. If the problem appears to be still there, try restarting Jaspersoft Studio using the "-clean" flag in order to clear any possible OSGI and Eclipse runtime information that might have been cached and related to plug-ins. The flag can be removed on the next startup, because it usually has impact on startup times.

SAMPLE USAGE: ./Jaspersoft\ Studio -clean (inside the /Applications/TIBCO Jaspersoft Studio 6.16.0.app/Contents/MacOS directory)

 

I hope that soon we will be able to release a new version with a more effective support to the new Mac OS X version.

Unfortunately it appears that there are also some bugs (BigSur related) that have been solved in the recent 4.18 Eclipse platform, but others are still open and will be addressed in the next 4.19.

 

Best regards,

Massimo.

@mrabbi,

 

FYI: I tried using the patch you described above, and also restarted Jasper using the -clean flag. Unfortunately, most of the issues persist. I can tell the patch resolved a couple issues. For example, I can actually see which element I selected on the canvas now. Unfortunately though, most of the re-drawing issues persist, and Jasper is still unusable. For example, something as simple as moving or resizing a text field (or any element) still does not show properly in the designer.

 

Thanks for your help,

 

Franck

Basically, there is a request for certification, but they don't have plans to support Studio on Big Sur

 

@freyherme

 

Can you please provide a screencast with all the glitches you are mentioning?

Thanks in advance.

Massimo.
