Bug Description

When creating a new database view in collaboration mode, all other active collaborators in the same database are also switched to that view automatically.

This behavior causes a poor UX experience, as it disrupts what other users are currently working on.

Additionally, in the desktop app, when this automatic switch occurs, the other users sometimes see no data in the new view until they manually navigate between views — only then does the data load properly.

How to Reproduce

  1. Open a shared database with at least 2 active collaborators.
  2. User A creates a new database view.
  3. Observe that User B is also switched automatically to the same view.
  4. On desktop, User B might see an empty view until navigating between views.

Expected Behavior

Each collaborator should stay on their current view unless they manually decide to switch.
A user’s action should not affect the view state of other collaborators.

Operating System
