Bug Description

If we type fast enough and correct the name by deleting caracters (with backspace), caracters can appear and disappear. It looks like the bug is an issue of the synchronization between the box where we type the name of the item and where the item is displayed in the calendar.

How to Reproduce

The key to reproduce the bug is perform the key presses before the change is displayed in the calendar. The change time is around a second, so the two key presses need to be done within this one second

Go to the calendar view, create an item and click on it to edit it ; a box will appear to edit its name
Appearing caracters:
Press any letter (like "s") then Backspace before the change is displayed in the calendar.
--> the letter "s" will come back

Expected behavior:
The letter "s" should not be present anymore

Disappearing caracters:
First, type in the box the same letters like "dddd"
Press Backspace then "d" before the change is displayed in the calendar.
--> the last "d" will disappear

Interestingly, for this "trick" to work, the last caracter needs to be the same as the one that we are pressing ; if item name is "aaaa" and we Press Backspace then "d", the last letter (here "a") will not disappear and it will be working as expected.

Expected behavior:
The letter "d" should be still present

Expected Behavior

See How to Reproduce

Operating System

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

AppFlowy Version(s)

0.5.7 with the AppImage version

Screenshots

I would have included a video but the default app to make screenshots do not have the option to switch to screencast for some reason

Additional Context

No response

Well, the update kinda fixed it. If we try the same how to reproduce it, the text will be different in the box and the calendar as shown here :

However, if we click away, the correct text will be set to the item. So a minor visual bug is left

Should be fixed. We modified the behavior of updating the card title through the pop up window. Now you need to press Enter or Leave the window to reflect your title changes.
