NullPointerException when inferring compartment boundaries

[MariaHei]

When trying to open e_coli_core_metabolism.escher.json with inferring compartment boundaries set to true, a NullPointerException occurs:

The compartment's information read out from the Escher file is indeed null: c=EscherCompartment [x=null, y=null, width=null, height=null]

[draeger]

That is strange. Can you reproduce when and how this null-compartment is being created?

[MariaHei]

There is no NullPointerException anymore now, but if all of the compartment's parameters are null, the compartment is simply drawn around the entire canvas. This might be improved.
