Question - Code Importing a gmx file into gamemaker 2 put slashes in front of apostrophes

[maddiemelon]

Hello,
I just imported a gmx file that I had made in gamemaker studio 1.4 into gamemaker studio 2, and everything works great, it's just that it put a backslash in front of all my apostrophes in all my strings of text. For example, "It's" became "It\'s". Any way to fix this?

Thanks!

The backslash won't actually appear ingame. The apostrofe can be used to define the start and the end of a string, but if you place a backslash in front of it, the engine ignores it.

oh, sorry let me clarify, I'm not talking about the backslash appearing in front of the apostrophe that begins the string. It appears inside the string, so it does appear in game. Like, when I put a word with an apostrophe in it inside the string, it put a backslash in front of it, like "It\'s", and then gamemaker writes it like that in the game.
