Can Somebody Explain this Really Annoying Studio Feature?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Howdy.

Sometimes when I am in the script editor, I accidentally click something, causing the way I edit text to behave differently.

In the statement --this is example text if I were to edit from the highlighted point in the screenshot (x) it would replace that, but then the rest of the text if i continued. It’s really annoying and I end up restarting studio because I don’t know how to fix it. Can somebody please explain?

That is the cause of the Insert key. Read this: Insert key - Wikipedia

What’s happening to you is the overtype mode. To change between modes, just press the Insert key on your keyboard.

Oh, thank you. It’s really annoying and I didn’t realize it’s just me missclicking a button. Thanks!
