ClientConfig type ACE

[OlegShchavelev]

Hello, Mark

When changing the type of the field from textarea to ace, the application simply stopped working. I show in the screenshot.

I show the ACE package of the latest version in the screenshot

Hi @OlegShchavelev just curious: did you fix it or find out what the problem was?

[Ruslan-Aleev]

Yep, I'm confirming bug. But problem in Ace:

Hi @Ruslan-Aleev, what versions are you running?

Because I cannot confirm it with either:
MODX 2.8.5-pl, Ace 1.9.3-pl, ClientConfig 2.3.3-pl
nor with:
MODX 3.0.2-pl, Ace 1.9.3-pl, ClientConfig 2.3.0-pl

Both are working for me:

Maybe it needs the system-setting to be also set to Ace?

@sebastian-marinescu Hi!
It's really weird =)
I took up the question, since the problem was reported in the telegram chat, I checked the ClientConfig and the problem also happened to me.

I have: MODX 2.8.5-pl, Ace 1.9.3-pl (but Ace installed from modstore.pro), ClientConfig 2.3.3-pl

Not only that, I even found a solution =) but now it's not clear why you don't have a problem...

Solution:
in /assets/components/ace/modx.texteditor.js somewhere near the line 232, replace the code with:

focus: function (){
    this.valueHolder.focus();
},

@sebastian-marinescu I installed clean MODX with git, did not do any MODX settings, I installed only 2 components Ace and ClientConfig from the modx.com repository.
I created a group and a code-setting in ClientConfig - the problem is reproduced (checked in the latest Google Chrome, in incognito mode) ...

@sebastian-marinescu So it looks like we've found a way to reproduce the bug - make the ace-setting first in the group; refresh the page and ClientConfig section will crash with an error in the console.
