Hi Paulo and jls,
I'll fix this in the next release. Thanks for pointing it out. In the meantime, if you need it, you can just save the following code to a file called "graphicsbuffer__setcurrent.pro" [note there are 2 underscores]:

pro GraphicsBuffer::SetCurrent
compile_opt idl2, hidden
oSystem = _IDLitSys_GetSystem(/NO_CREATE)
if (Obj_Valid(oSystem)) then $
oSystem->_SetCurrentTool, self.tool, /NO_NOTIFY
end

Cheers,
Chris
