Change font in expression text fields

How do I...?
1

Hi all!
I have been struggling with a code snippet for hours. I finally solved it by writing the code in a text editor (Sublime Text). It shows that the quotation marks where not correct. The default font that GDevelop use doesn’t show any difference. The two code snippets below differ, but I can’t see it in GDevelop.

VariableString(text_var[“question_”+ToString(Variable(QuestionNumber1))
+”_”+ToString(Variable(QuestionNumber2))].text)

VariableString(text_var[“question_”+ToString(Variable(QuestionNumber1))+“_”+ToString(Variable(QuestionNumber2))].text)

Can I change the font in any way?

The forum converts them to the same ones, that are not compatible with GD.
Try the "code formatting" or pastecode.io
I tested it with sublime 4 and had no problem.

I’m talking from memory here but I think this should work.

VariableString(text_var["question_"+VariableString(QuestionNumber1)
+"_"+VariableString(QuestionNumber2)].text)

Thanks @UlisesFreitas,
Actually I have solved the programming issue. I just wanted to know why all quotation marks look the same in GDevelop, while working with code in Sublime Text shows different quotation marks, as in the image below:

Anyways, now we know what to look for if we get an error that makes no sense and we are using quotation marks.

Sometimes this should happen because of the UTF-8 (encoding system)
