Hi All,

My python editor node doesn’t let me type anything in is:

I re-installed dynamo. Everything worked once I first open dynamo after re-installation and now it refuse to cooperate again.

Has anyone had similar problem?

Cheers,  
Bea

Hi Beata,

Did you try with “Python Script from Striing”?

Hi Kulkul,

Thank you for your suggestion. That maybe useful, but still have problem with editing my old codes, which I did in node Python Script.

Cheers,  
B.

@Bea You should file a bug on GitHub: [https://github.com/DynamoDS/Dynamo/issues](https://github.com/DynamoDS/Dynamo/issues)  
Also, to get to your old code, you could just open your dyn file in a text editor and look for the Python script.
