Error opening Text section in Inspector view

[PhaserEditor2D]

(reported by a client)

I’m having trouble using the scene editor in the new Phaser Editor 2D v3.2.0 to edit the styles applied to a standard text object. Though I can edit the content through the Text Content inspector, the Text inspector does not show up (see attached image). The inspector I’m referring to is shown here: https://help.phasereditor2d.com/v3/scene-editor/text-object.html. As a workaround, editing the associated .scene json file to add text style does work and is rendered appropriately in-editor and in-game.

This can be replicated by:

• Run v3.2.0’s server on Windows 10 1909
• Open webapp in Chromium 83.0.4103.97 (This also occurs in Firefox 77.0.1)
• Create new project from the Basic Javascript template
• Open Level.scene
• From right click menu, add new text object

I noticed a few errors in my Javascript console which I pasted here: https://gist.github.com/drfuzzyness/1e2a9d597374b39f5aefbe6043ce5d87

Update: This seems to be caused by the --enable-advanced-js-editor command line flag. Removing this restores the intended functionality.

I cannot reproduce this error. Maybe it is related with the order the resources are fetched.

The problem is that the Phaser docs file (plugins/phasereditor2d.scene/data/phaser-docs.json) is not loaded at the right moment.

Please, replace the file:
PhaserEditor2D/editor/plugins/phasereditor2d.ide/_out/phasereditor2d.ide.js with this version I attach here:

phasereditor2d.ide.zip

(Check you clear the browser cache)

It should prints some debug messages like this:

assert _data = object
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:246 getDoc(Phaser.Types.GameObjects.Text.TextStyle.fixedHeight)
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:247 assert _data = object
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:246 getDoc(Phaser.GameObjects.Text.setPadding)
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:247 assert _data = object
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:246 getDoc(Phaser.GameObjects.TextStyle.baselineX)
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:247 assert _data = object
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:246 getDoc(Phaser.GameObjects.TextStyle.baselineY)
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:247 assert _data = object
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:246 getDoc(Phaser.GameObjects.Text.lineSpacing)
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:247 assert _data = object
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:246 getDoc(Phaser.GameObjects.Text.setMaxLines)
phasereditor2d.ide.js?v=3.2.0:247 assert _data = object

Please, try to reproduce the error again and send me your console log. All the log, from the start to the end.

Thanks.

It'll be a few days before I can get back to the original affected computer I previously tested on. I've tried on a fresh Windows 10 1909 machine that never had PhaserEditor2D installed and using --enable-advanced-js-editor didn't replicate the bug with either the original or the new phasereditor2d.ide.js.

I have a hunch that the affected Windows machine I tested on may have had some strange asset caching going on, although using a private browsing window didn't help on the affected machine.

I'll report back when I can test on the affected machine again, but a fresh install of 3.2.0 on a fresh computer works fine.

Hi @drfuzzyness

I am glad it is working to you now. I will keep this issue open for a while. I think it was probably a problem with caching or a missing file. Thanks for the help.
