Script Editor not Opening [SOLVED]

Script Editor not Opening [SOLVED]

Postby CreativeOcclusion » 17 Jul 2015, 19:44

I have just found out that the script editor will not open...It doesn't matter if I try to open it from the editors tab or clicking on scripts...It shows a icon on task bar, showing window opened , but does not show in editor...worked fine in free version, but not in newest version....
Not sure if I need to reinstall SkyLine or what?
Thanks, CreativeOcclusion

If you could try pressing alt and tab m8 that should show you all the windows available in windows as it sounds as if it is open but minimized if that fails you could try and do a reinstall and i would also make sure it removes the folder after the uninstall in case there are any files left over from the free version.

Strange that you are having problems. Try pressing "Play" then "Stop" and trying again to open the script as this can regain focus to the editor.

The script can be opened via multiple ways and should open from the toolbar if there is a new or opened scene in the editor.
Scene scripts ( Similar to a master or Main script ) are opened by RMB then at the top of the context menu >Lua - Scene Script
Micro scripts and External scripts can be loaded and created by RMB>Lua - Add Micro script or Lua - Add External Script
Scripts can also be opened from the asset manager by double clicking on a script file.
