    Hello! The plugin works very well for me but I noticed it doesn't scroll. So I can't see what's typed in if the text is too big. Will you please fix this?

    Hi.
    Your plugin is wonderful.
    I edit code for max row and cursor come back up for personal use:

    JavaScript:
    Window_NotepadDetails.prototype.newLine = function() {
var nextLineString = this.text[this._row].slice(this._index);
this.text[this._row] = this.text[this._row].substr(0, this._index);
this.text.splice(this._row + 1, 0, nextLineString);
// add this conditional branch
if(this._row > 9){
this._row = 0;
}else{
this._row++;
}
  
this._index = 0;
this.refresh();


    Cursor come back at start line when the page is complete

    I tried the example file but got the same "For Each" error. I didn't touch anything, just tried the demonstration file.
    Same Issue here... Did you figure this out?

    Download Plugin​

    Note: This plugin is not under active maintenance.

    Introduction
    This plugin creates a new scene where players may type notes using their keyboard with a fully functional text editor.

    Possible uses of this feature may include:
    1. Crime/mystery game (the player “detective” can write notes about the crime)
    2. Quests (player can keep notes about the characters, items, etc.)
    3. Recipes (player can write down recipes they discover like alchemy, magic, inventions)
    4. Educational games (notes for classes, etc.)
    This is based on the use of a keyboard, so it is meant for desktop games.

    Instructions
    If you want a text editor for the player to write notes using the English QWERTY keyboard, this is plug-and-play. No parameters or plugin commands are required for the basic functionality.
    Configuration for other keyboards and special characters can be easily added in the plugin parameters.

    The parameter that controls the input contains:
    1. The unique Key Code of the key (for example, 'a' is 65)
    2. The character to type when the Key Code is pressed
    3. The character to type when the Key Code is pressed and Shift is pressed.
    For keyboards that do not follow the English QWERTY format (such as AZERTY or QWERTZ keyboards), the plugin parameter can be changed to match those keyboards.
    A test mode is included to identify the proper Key Code for each key. Enable the test mode through the plugin parameter and open the console in a playtest by pressing F8. Each Key Code will be displayed there when the key is pressed.
    Accessing the Notepad Scene
    1. Main Menu
      • This plugin has integration with the main menu built-in; a new command is added to the main menu to access the Notepad. This can be disabled through the plugin parameters.
    2. Plugin Command
      • The plugin command "notepad open" will open the Notepad Scene. This can be called from any event (on-map or common event).
    3. Script call
      • The Notepad Scene may be called similar to other scenes with the script call "SceneManager.push(Scene_Notepad);"

    There are 25+ plugin commands that can be used in this plugin. These are documented within the help section of the plugin, but to really see how these work, it is recommend to download the DEMO.

    @Tyrantdjmento it is possible, but you should edit the code to it.
    there is also a plugin, I think from Eli to give scenes a different font
    which is easier to use than modify the plugin, unless you know how too.

    @grant858 I dont think adding images is possible, you probably
    need to modify the plugin to do that though.

    I'm getting this error too. In the demo the menus pop up with two notes, but if I open the scene in an original project the menus are all blank. In both cases, pressing on anything causes this error. Anyone find a fix?
