You are right, my mistake. 25.02 is the Java version. jEdit is 5.7.0 .

I found the Activity Log (in Utilities/Troubleshooting), but there is no "clear" button. How do I clear it?

There is no jEdit 25.02. Please clarify the version#.
Also, you might want to clear the activity log, reproduce the issue, and then attach the activity log.

ProjectViewer: Button "Choose" has no effect.

Jedit 25.02 on MacOS tahoe using Java 17. ProjectViewer 3.6

I do:

Plugins / ProjectViewer / Project / NewProjectHere

There is an entry field "Root Directory", and next to it a button labelled "Choose".

Since there is no more explanation, I assume that "Choose" is supposed to open a file browser, from where we can choose the project root. However, clicking on "Choose" does not seem to have any effect.
