i’d like to edit a component property using the internalFrameActivated event.  
when i choose any component, using the tree in the popup, and i click OK i get this exception:

```auto
RuntimeException: Component 'null' in path does not exist.
```

i already sent the bug report via ignition designer…  
thanks
