There’s a glitch with the code folding feature (ctrl + shift + e, ctrl + e) in the script editor where segments of your code gets “locked” in a closed state. It happens frequently when you’re editing a folded or semi-folded script. Users can work around it by closing the script tab and reopening it.
Reproduction Steps
- Create a script with the following contents:
do
--test
end
- Press ctrl + shift + e or fold the “do” statement by hitting the arrow to the left of it. You’ll notice it changes from the dark arrow to the white arrow.
- Navigate to line 1 and press enter. Your code will now look like this (2 blank lines, then folded
dostatement):
do
You may also notice that the arrow to the left of the do statement went dark again.
- Attempt to unfold it by clicking the arrow to the left of
door by hitting ctrl + e. Neither works.
Extra Details
The bug started happening several months ago. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was in the winter. I was unable to get a simple repro until today, though it’s been bothering me for quite some time.
