New line characters causing issues?

brintown

I'm using a text command to write to the page, and on any string that uses \n (newline character) I'm getting this error.

Can anyone help me decipher this? I have had no problem getting newline characters to work on past projects.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "paper_dungeon.py", line 680, in <module>
  File "paper_dungeon.py", line 573, in draw_shop_page
  File "drawBot/drawBotDrawingTools.pyc", line 1607, in text
  File "drawBot/context/baseContext.pyc", line 908, in makeTextBoxes
IndexError: NSRangeException - NSMutableRLEArray objectAtIndex:effectiveRange:: Out of bounds

This is the text command:

drawBot.text("Starting\n \n      HP\n\n \n       ¢",(25,145))

Testing that line in drawbot, it works. It seems your doing it with imported drawbot. Wonder if it might work with textBox rather than text?

could you make an example script throwing this traceback?

is your drawbot up to date? (the module)
