I can’t select anything that gets printed in the output.
Nah, nothing is pressed while I’m doing it.

As you can see, my plugin requires you to copy a link in the output.
I can’t really do it now, but I remember there was an ability to do it.

Is it normal? …or is it a change I had missed?

I think this changed since they added the ability to track the output to the code that is causing it :frowning:

I can still copy+paste things from my output window. What OS are you on? If you have a script with this code in it

for i = 1, 3 do
print(“test”)
wait(3)
end

do you still encounter the same problem?

#4

I can copy+paste out of it, but the highlight background color is so close to the output background color that you can’t tell anything is highlighted, and the text color doesn’t change when highlighted either. I wouldn’t be surprised if OP didn’t notice that text was actually being highlighted. For instance, notice how difficult it is to notice the highlighted portion in this screenshot:

It used to be the selected text would turn white and the selection background color was blue. I’m not sure if the change is intentional or a bug, but IMO the blue background + white text is what it should be still. That blue selection + white text is pretty standard, and makes it clearly visible which text is selected.

for i = 1, 3 do
print(“test”)
wait(3)
end
test (x3)

Apparently I can select it, but the problem is:

  • Highlight which is really light, hard to notice (Mentioned by @EchoReaper)
  • I can’t mark from the middle or left, especially clickable text.
  • You have to start from the left of the line which is above and drag it under just to select the line you want.

It’s really uncomfortable and hard to do so.

I’ve added the highlight color to our bug list. We’ll work on a fix for this asap.

I’ve tried here, I’m still able to select text from the middle of clickable text, it just appears to have the same background color.

#7

I’m able to select from the middle of clickable text as well

#8

At least when the text color gets fixed, we will be able to tell if everything’s alright.
Thanks for help!

#9

Any word on this?

#10

Highlights are still difficult to see – would be great if the selection background color could be switched to blue and the selection text color switched to white.
