Computer is beeping in object editor

Every time I click on a value in the object editor (for example, to change the icon, or a tooltip, or the damage that a spell does), my computer lets out a loud beep. If I use the arrow keys to scroll through a whole bunch of fields, it lets out a long continuous beep. Has this ever happened to anyone, or does anyone know why it happens?
 
It seems as if your keyboard's channels are being nulled. Keyboards have channels that allow you to push more than 1 key at the same time, and if all the channels are being used, the motherboard lets out a beep.

It's either your motherboard, your wc3, or your keyboard.

Worst case scenario would be your motherboard.

Kindof bad scenario would be your registry.

Little bit worse scenario you would have to replace your keyboard.

Best case scenario is your WC3.

Try doing a clean install of WC3.

I don't quite know about the mouse though. Maybe the computer uses the same channels for mouse and for keyboard?
 
It's a recent development, but I don't know how recent. It was fine a few months ago. Still, thx, i'll try reinstalling anyways.

I just turned off the beep through modifying the beep in computer management, but does it mean it's harming my computer every time I use the object editor?
 
The motherboard beep can help you determine if something is wrong. The beep is much like binary code. There will be a small series of rapid and slow beeps (may vary from 1-5) which... Well I've only heard of that once.

It's to notify what's going on and if your computer can handle it.
I would think that it will stress your computer if the computer is notifying you, but of course computers can have all sorts of things wrong with them. Try doing a full clean on your computer using a program such as CCleaner. Most likely it's a registry error which this program should fix.
 
No, i face that problem before, that is world editor lag. so just simple go to your main editor, where you can see file, edit, view, layer, select the window(next to the module) and untick the brush list. then you will see the different.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
