Yarn dialogue editor freezes entire window

Author: ThatDaviMinion007Created Aug 28, 2026Updated Aug 28, 2026

Is there an existing issue for this?

Describe the bug

When I try to create a Yarn JSON on actions/load DialogueTree from JSON/Create with Yarn, it opens the window and just freezes, including the yarn screen and the Gdevelop bar above. The only way I can close it is pressing the X mark.
