Enter Error

Everytime I press the enter key when I'm entering text in the sprite/background editor, it adds a music not symbol, and if I delete it it gets effects of the enter key. Does anyone know what to do?

Re: Enter Error

I don't exactly understand your question.  hmm

Could you be a little clearer?

Re: Enter Error

Looks to me like your keyboard configuration is a bit off... It's quite strange! Does it do this on all programs, or just Scratch? I'm not entirely sure how to fix this.

If it's only Scratch that does this, you could try reinstalling, which might fix the problem.

If I press the Enter Key while typing in the Sprite/Background editor in Scratch, it adds a musical note symbol (Alt-13) then skips a line, but I can't delete the musical not without deleting the new line.

@coolstuff: Reinstallling didn't work  hmm

Re: Enter Error

That is quite strange then! For now, I guess you could try writing things up in another program and then pasting them into Scratch...

Oh! Try shift-clicking the "r" in the Scratch logo in the upper-left corner, then turning fill screen off. Click on the background an select "save image for end user." Then does it work?

Nope, still doesn't work...
I'll try copy and pasting.

That happens with a couple fonts I have on my PC
Try a different font

big_smile  Sorry, that was funny. (Sounded like Homer Simpson)

But really, how did that work out for you, Quote?

I wonder why the Batang font does that...
