What is this scripting feature about highlighting letters and how to deactivate it?

Hello everyone,

I was following a scripting tutorial about making roblox ablilities and I don’t really know how to put this but I sort of opened this feature where when you click on letters they get highlighted and your selecting gets really weird.

This isn’t the first time this happened to me and it’s very annoying. I never know how to stop it, so I always just reopen studio and it’s gone.

But I was wondering how it actually gets activated and how I deactivate it.
If you don’t know what I’m talking about, I made a recording so u could see it for yourself.

So if you know what this thing is, please explain me how to deactive it.
Help is appreciated

It’s the programmer’s worst nightmare. Many, even I, have feared it for a very long time, since the youth of our careers. It takes time to learn how to tame the beast. Some call it the devil. Others call it useless. But your keyboard manufacturer calls it the Insert key.

Never have I ever once found a use case for the Insert key, it could just be me but yes I think you’re crazy.

i use it all the time when im coding, i think its pretty cool

I’d like a short list of times you’ve used it without aggressively tweaking.

Do you perhaps know how I would deactivate this “beast”?

nil

Yes. The Insert key. The little key on your keyboard with the letters “INS”. Unless yours somehow doesn’t have it, in which case I’m sorry for your loss.
