Two-finger scrolling no longer working in Monodevelop 4 for Mac

On a Macbook Pro with Mavericks. I updated to Unity 4.3, got the new Monodevelop with it- and now I can’t scroll with two fingers on the trackpad, which I hadn’t even realized was the only way I scroll anything anymore. It is frustrating, even more so because I can’t figure out how to make the, tiny, auto-hiding, not always showing up again when you want them to, scrollbars to be visible against a black background.

Edit- But I can just leave the Document Outline drawer open and jump to the function I want, right? Hahaha NO. Document Outline is broken in this version too. It’s always empty.
It’s come down to selecting huge blocks of text to get the window to scroll.
This bites, I’m going to try to downgrade to an older MonoDevelop now.

I’ve had this problem a few times now. This version of MonoDevelop is NOT Mac friendly.

I’m having the same problem with my bamboo touch its working if i start the scrolling on the mac touchpad but stops working again if i scroll to the end of the document.

any workarounds known?

Its kind of funny. I am having all sorts of problems with the new Monodevelop and didn’t have/notice the scrolling issue until I tried to scroll down on this very forum page.

The old Monodevelop had/s issues with auto-complete when a script wasn’t compiled (or couldn’t compile)… So if you had the little red line telling you that there was a syntax error it would sometimes mess up auto-complete; I’m having tons of problems with the NEW Monodevelop not auto-completing when the script is compiled/has been compiled… Not working when I know the older Monodevelop wouldn’t have a problem auto-completing.

I couldn’t get StartCoroutine to auto-complete, I couldn’t get other things to auto-complete that I can’t remember right now. I’ve become spoiled and rely on Auto-Complete not just to make sure that I’m spelling something correctly, but to help me code more quickly.

I want to keep Unity 4.3. I found this page searching… I’m going to search elsewhere, but it would be nice to find it on the Unity3d Forums. How do I rollback the Monodevelop?

EDIT:
Actually, yeah… It would be nice if Monodevelop had a separate download and installer. Though under the circumstances it would be nice of Unity Technologies created a “Hot Fix” patch that would allow us to easily rollback.

I can’t seem to find an official older version to try to do a rollback with:Redirecting…

Actually, I’m feeling dumb right now but it looks like Unity 4.3 is using Monodevelop 4.0.1 (Is that right?) I installed Monodevelop 4.2 from the link above and went into Unity Preferences and set the Xamarin Studio to open instead of the Installed Monodevelop. Then when I double click on a script it opens in the Xamarin as expected.

I just don’t know how to set the new installation of MonoDevelop to “Unity” now instead of “Xamarin” I’m looking for a solution.

what do you mean by that?

Anyways i also tried monodevelop 4.2 but since it doesn’t include unitys extensions etc its not working for debugging wich sucks and makes it worthless for me.

BUT i was able to use the old monodevelop 2.8 wich you can get from the unity 4.2 distribution and debugging is also working for unity 4.3 so i’ll stick with the old version until a fix is released. :slight_smile:

(just rename the new monodevelop to monodevelop4 or something and copy the old one into the unity folder works perfect for me so far.)
