This might be me being stupid, but when I click on the edit action button alongside the action, the edit box opens but I can neither edit existing text or add new text.

I'm using version 3.14

Thanks!

Can you provide some details on the action you're trying to edit? Maybe also post a screenshot to clarify the context.

This is the box I get when I click edit on an action I have just created. I assumed I would write the code in this box but perhaps not?

You have just created the action group container.  
Now click on the "New" button to add an action.  
An action group can contain 1 to many actions.

Maybe this AniGif (created some days before) can help you:
