R error

I have been using R for the last five years and is my favorite platform for computations and simulations. My question:

I am an Apple user and since the upgrade to 10.8, I am now using 10.12.1 (16B2555) macOS Sierra, i have been getting this error message when I try to execute a command from the document editor.

2016-11-16 10:32:52.467 R[10235:1165417] *** WARNING: Method convertPointFromBase: in class NSView is deprecated on 10.7 and later. It should not be used in new applications. 

Is there something I could do, or have not done to avoid this error.

Thanks

Kirk this has been reported previously but apparently doesn't affect many users. You can ignore it safely. Bryan

It should probably be fixed at some point. For one thing, the method might actually disappear in a future version of the OS, but there are also some hints that it might misbehave on Retina displays (haven't seen it actually do that, though). It's one of those things that has lingered on while we supported Snow Leopard.

Thanks, it should be now fixed (r7293).
