Question by pjw9000 · Jan 03, 2016 at 09:00 AM · editormonodevelop

Can't type & modify anything in my script with monodevelop

Hi,

So after I create a script, I am able to open the script using monodevelop but I can't make any change with it from there. Seems like most of other functionalities are fine, but nothing happens when I type in the script. I can move around the cursor but I can't type or make any change with the script, except selecting a block of text and deleting it (and plus the revert using cmd + z), which is weird for me. When I modify the script using other editors, it notifies me that there has been a change with the file and asks me that whether I want to reload the new file, and if I say yes, the script is changed to the newest one, but I still can't make any changes from the monodevelop editor.

I have tried to look for the answer and I have seen many questions regarding the failure of opening scripts, debugging or other things, but I have never seen any post that has the same issue as mine.

I am using Mac and my version is El Capitan. Thank you in advance.

How long does the moderation usually take? I guarantee that there is no question that has the same issue as mine from the internet, and this is irritating me so much. I still need monodevelop as a debug tool, so every time I write the script I have to launch monodevelop first and this is just too annoying.

Hi.

I posted the same question in Help Room

Never post duplicate questions, especially when you already asked the same question yourself. This makes no sense, is against the forum rules, clogs the moderation queue and creates chaos and confusion in the forum. ;)

Also, this question has nothing to do with Unity, it is off-topic. $$anonymous$$onoDevelop is a third party program but the most commonly known use seems to be with Unity.

Please have a read of the FAQ, the forum guidelines can be found there. The User Guide might also be of interest to you.

Have a nice day.

PS. If i knew what causes your problem I would have given you a hint, but I never heard of that one.

If you are using svn, maybe that's the reason why this was happened, in this case, you need to just add your new script files to be added working copy, after then, just close and reopen your new script, It will work out

I was having the same issue after updating unity a few days ago....it worked again after I went to Project > Solution Options, Version Control > General, and checking Disable Version Control for this solution. Close the script in unity and reopen it.

Only picked up on it because it kept throwing errors complaining about the csproj file not being included in version control when I tried to change any settings.
