      I have no errors. Try to close "console.lua" file and refresh project files (by right clicking on "Files" in project files section and hit "Refresh"). Open "console.lua" again and check if something changed.

      according to this example your code looks right:
      -- then we set the layout: width, height, line spacing and justify center
textfield:setLayout( {w=200, h=100, lineSpacing=7, flags=FontBase.TLF_CENTER} )
      https://wiki.giderosmobile.com/index.php/TextField:setLayout
      Available since: Gideros 2017.10

      @koeosstudio can you copy/paste your code please?

      @MoKaLux @rrraptor Heres my code. My gideros version is 2019.5
      console = Core.class(Sprite)
 
function console:init()
	local fnt = TTFont.new("Assets/cour.ttf", 47)
	self.txt = TextField.new(fnt, nil)
	self.txt:setPosition(50, 50)
	self.txt:setLayout({w=200, h=100, lineSpacing=7, flags=FontBase.TLF_LEFT})
	self:addChild(self.txt)
	self.allowType = true
end

      I tried your code I had no errors but there was no text.
      To have some text you need to change your code a little bit:
      console = Core.class(Sprite)
function console:init(sometext)
	local fnt = TTFont.new("Assets/arial.ttf", 47)
	self.txt = TextField.new(fnt, sometext)
	self.txt:setPosition(50, 50)
	self.txt:setLayout({w=200, h=100, lineSpacing=7, flags=FontBase.TLF_LEFT})
	self:addChild(self.txt)
	self.allowType = true
end
 
local myconsole = console.new("this is a sample text.")
stage:addChild(myconsole)
      PS: I changed font to arial because I did not have cour.ttf
      PS2: gideros 2019.10
      PS3: if you don't understand some part just ask us :)

      Thank you very much for the great answers. Fixed it by creating a new project and copy pasting the exact same code. It's a bit strange but nevermind. :D :D
      By the way, here's my final code : a simple Texfield with typwriter effect and basic scroll function.
      console = Core.class(Sprite)
 
function console:init()
	local fnt = TTFont.new("Assets/cour.ttf", 20)
	self.txt = TextField.new(fnt, nil)
	self.txt:setLayout({w = 300, flags=FontBase.TLF_LEFT})
	self.txt:setAnchorPoint(0, 0)
	self:addChild(self.txt)
	self.allowType = true
 
	-- Simple scroll function
	local z = nil
 
	self:addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_DOWN, function (event)
		z = event.y - self.txt:getY()
	end)
	self:addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_MOVE, function (event)
		self.txt:setY(event.y - z)
	end)
end 
 
function console:tWrite(txtToPrint)
	if self.allowType then
		self.allowType = false
		local i = 1
		self.txt:setText(self.txt:getText()..'\n')
 
		local function typeFunc()
			self.txt:setText(self.txt:getText()..string.sub(txtToPrint, i, i))
			i = i + 1
 
			if i > string.len(txtToPrint) then
				self.allowType = true
				self:removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, typeFunc)
			end
		end
 
		self:addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, typeFunc)
	end
end
 
 
-- Test 
 
application:setLogicalDimensions(480, 800)
local myconsole = console.new(1)
stage:addChild(myconsole)
 
-- Generate sample txt 
	local s = ""
	for i = 1, 10 do
	s = s.."TextField with typewriter effect. Drag to Scroll.\n\n"
	end
 
-- Print
myconsole:tWrite(s)
