Description (last modified by cdent) (diff)

This report is carried over from the tiddlyspace issues queue, but is a bug native to tiddlywiki, so moved over here.

 http://github.com/tiddlyspace/tiddlyspace/issues/issue/219

When "new tiddler" is clicked, the text in the title selection is selected. This is good, it means you can just start typing.

When tabbing from the title input to the text input, the text should be selected as well so it is possible to just start typing.

Of course that shouldn't happen when the tiddler is _not_ new however that's exactly what does happen. This can result in tragedy.

Repeat:

  • click new tiddler, "New Tiddler" is selected
  • start type, change the title, this is good
  • press tab
  • do whatever contortions are necessary to start entering text
  • save the tiddler
  • click edit
  • start typing
  • oh shit, I've overwritten what was already in the tiddler

Expected:

  • I shouldn't have to do the contortions on a new tiddler
  • I shouldn't be able to easily destroy my existing text on an existing tiddler
