+1 it sucks not to be able to run PyPose on a Mac easily. All I want to do with it is set the ids of my servos!

Could you pull the latest and see if it works for you?

I think #6 could be related to 2.9; so even if the NullColor fix does prevent that particular error we should work to resolve all errors relating to wxPython 2.9 before closing this issue.

I say 'I think' because I couldn't get PyPose running with wxPython2.8-osx-unicode-universal-py2.7.pkg downloaded from the site, which would tell me whether it's a 2.9 specific problem or not.

A single ticket for all 2.9 issues is really too broad, individual tickets are more targeted and easily serviced. It appears this patch does fix the specific problem this ticket is focused on -- I've updated the description accordingly to properly scope it, and am closing.
