Code appears in inactive file tab

Wappler General Bugs
#21

Im having this problem a lot and its really annoying, i have to close and reopen Wappler and sometimes all the changes i did are missing so i have to work double. @George, there is a chance to switch to another code editor engine? Thanks

#22

If the problem with Monaco will not be addressed by Microsoftā€¦is there any plan to work around the issue?

#23

Microsoft reported that it might be fixed in their latest changes, but they arenā€™t releasing a new version yet - so we are waiting for that ā€¦

last version was from 6 months ago ā€¦ seems they have shifted priorities ā€¦

@George

If it helps at all, today the bug is biting, but it would seem that a temporary fix after this occurs, is to toggle from the Design tab to the Code tab on the file receiving all the errant keystrokes. After I do that, I can get back to work. It provides temporary relief. :slight_smile: Maybe it points you to a way to resolve or workaround?

#25

This would be great to resolve. My working process is to only ever have one file open at a time which is frustrating as Iā€™m repeatedly opening and closing files just to check things or copy things when keeping them all open would be so much better.

#26

Yes, this is also bugging me like mad, seems worst when you have a CSS file open

The biggest problem for us is to reproduce it. I also had it sometimes and was able to do some debugging, then I added some extra logging in the code and wanted to reproduce it again but didnā€™t happen. Spend a whole day trying to reproduce it without any success.

Without knowing what exactly is causing it and how to reproduce, it will be difficult for us to fix. I hope that I am able to reproduce it sometime to work on a fix.

From what I currently know is that it is a focus issue. Seems that a previous editor didnā€™t get a blur and thinks it has focus. If you go to that editor tab, focus it and then go back to the previous editor fixes it. Why it didnā€™t blur the editor in some cases is not yet known by us, probably some racing condition when a new tab/editor is opened.

With the new monaco update which will be included in the next Wappler update it should be gone. If it still happens after the update then open a new topic for it.

This should be now fixed in Wappler 3.4.0 - the latest version of Monaco Editor has been added there.
