Instructions say: Above the world display is a title that shows the name of the world – “WombatWorld” in our case. Right-click this title, and you will see the world’s menu. One of the methods in this menu is ‘populate()’. When I right-click the world title, I do not see 'populate()' menu. I see 'New WombatWorld()' in blue font and the following menues in red font: 'Open editor', 'Set image...', 'Inspect', 'Remove', and 'New subclass...'. The ‘randomLeaves(int howMany)’ method is nowhere to be found either.

Yup. That is what you are looking for.

Thanks, JeffC. Only when I right-click on "wombatWorld", the methods I see in the sub-menu are "void populate()" and "void randomLeaves(int)".

As I was going through the tutorial, I went to change the act() to public void act() and it keeps telling me I have an illegal expression... What does that mean?

To find the populate method, right click on the world title which is actually located in the center of the screen, not on the side.

See picture.
