Text Tool not allowing input and not displaying in editor.
Posted: Tue Dec 16, 2025 5:10 am
I have an odd issue with 20.4 the latest versions where it doesn't display any text in the editor. If I load an old site in it doesn't display the text in the editor on the page, but if I preview it is OK in the browser.
But back in the editor, it shows a blank screen where the text is supposed to be. It does it with all fonts, sizes, attributes and colors.
Is there some DLL missing or something for the display on screen in the editor?
I notice when I try to add a text from the toolbox it only allows it to have the tool indicator boxes to display the small squares, no typing allowed for the text and the height property of it is 1 I change it to say 100 go away from it being the focus and go back it goes back to the 1 pixel height
It doesn't even allow typing or have the default text displayed when clicking for the text tool in the editor.
It's like there is some missing DLL that is required to allow for that tool to display in the editor.
