editing scripts not possible
« on: November 29, 2013, 08:58:37 pm »
Hello,

I have scripts which I like to edited within EA and although I can open them it is not possible to edit them there (all functions are disabled and grey). Currently I have to edit them in an external editor and restart EA.
How can I edit my scripts in EA?

Thanks,
Oliver

The question is not which version, but which edition.
Scripting is only enabled from the corporate edition upwards.

Hello,

good to know, however, we have here the Corporate edition. So the question remains, why I cannot edit the scripts within EA :(

Thanks,
Oliver

Are you trying to edit one of the "Local Scripts" provided by Sparx ? If so create your own script in an appropriate group and copy/paste the required code into your new script. You cannot edit the local scripts provided by Sparx.

Regards,

Jon.
