Bug Description

Seen with OpenCloud 3.7.0

Add NEw file, -> plain text -> the texteditor starts
Click the 3-dots menu, -> Save As

A file requester appears, with the current Filename already higlighted (except for the .txt suffix), so that typing a new name replaces the current name. OK

Image

But when starting to type, The first character I type is immediately highlighted, and gets replaced with the second character I want to type.

Image

Occasionally, when typing very fast, I get two character typed in.

Expected behaviour:

  • The highliht diappears, after the first character typed, so that further characters can be appended.

Workaround:

  • hit Right-Arrow after eah character, this makes the highlight temporarily disappear.
  • type the filename elsewhere, and use copy paste.

Also:

Image

The submit button is called "Choose" so I expect, that an existing name can be chosen.
That does not work. Clicking on 'eeeee.txt' does not update the text entry for the name. BAD.

Reproduction Steps

Expected Outcome

Replace mode only active before typing anyhting
