Godot: This weird underline when i code keeps appearing

Created on 23 Dec 2019  路  5Comments  路  Source: godotengine/godot

So whenever i have a problem with my code, this "_" keeps appearing instead of my usual "I".
I don't know what causes this. When i type something to rewrite some code, it replaces the old code with the new code instead of adding to it.
Please help me, i do not have much experience with this software.
Thank you.

To avoid confusion, we could disable this behavior by default like in Visual Studio Code. From what I've seen, most people never use the replace mode intentionally :slightly_smiling_face:

if you press your insert key does it fix this? I think this isn't a godot issue specifically, there's those two modes that you can switch between with insert

This is just insert mode. When you enter insert mode, you can work with the character the cursor is sitting under. I'm not sure if it can do much else.

This should be discussed at godot-proposals. Most text editors I've used have and support insert mode, so I'm not sure disabling it would be good.

Closing as the initial issue was a misunderstanding.
