Font bug causes defold to freeze (UNSOLVED)

88.josh · June 2, 2017, 11:53pm

oh dear, I am having a mega-disaster here. Let me explain…

Everything is working fine
I try and change the blend mode to multiply in a Label
I get an error message and Defold freezes (invalid something something something). I force quit
I reopen Defold and try to recreate error
I don’t get the error message, defold freezes
I can no longer reopen the collection that contains that label and I get this message when I try and do so:

I re-opened again and found the blend mode had changed itself back to alpha and now it works fine. I saved a new branch and was able to recreate the error:

An error has occurred. See error log for more details.
Invalid path '/blend_mode'. No such element 'blend_mode' in 'LabelDesc'

Side note: If anyone could tell me how to get the font to look like this in the game I’d be very grateful. I have spent a great number of hours trying to make it work:

britzl · January 3, 2017, 2:41pm

Hmm, I’m not able to reproduce the blend mode issue. What are the exact steps you are taking to reproduce the error?

88.josh · January 3, 2017, 3:06pm

I can no longer reproduce the error. Oh no! but also: yeah!!

britzl · January 3, 2017, 10:29pm

If it does happen again please let us know!

88.josh · June 2, 2017, 11:55pm

Hi! This has happened again.

How to reproduce the error:

Change the font blend to alpha
Defold crashes
It is no longer possible to access that scene. Weirdly, I can still run that scene from the game. It says “Could not open the editor: collection node could not be loaded: Argument not valid”

88.josh · June 3, 2017, 12:00am

After deleting the font file which was contained within the collection, i was then able to open the collection again

britzl · June 3, 2017, 5:28am

I this using the new editor or the old one? Or doesn’t it work in either of them?

88.josh · June 3, 2017, 5:47am

Old editor. Should i switch to the new one?

britzl · June 3, 2017, 7:35am

Would you mind trying the new one and see if the same problem happens there?

88.josh · June 5, 2017, 10:29am

eventually, yes, I will look at the new one.
