### What’s The Bug?

Now that the description has been enabled in a different way for all objects, it somehow got stuck in my header. I may have had the description in my header before updating, which could have caused this problem? Not entirely sure. When I go to the properties panel and try to remove it, I can’t because it’s not there.

At least it’s synced up with the primary description location? 😅

### How To Reproduce It

Open object that had description set in the header before most recent update.Uploading: Description stuck in header.mp4…

### Image or Video

### The Expected Behavior

There should only be one description in the header, which should be the one you can toggle on and off without touching the properties panel.

How exactly did you enable the description for this object?

It’s supposed to be handled by this button now, and it always appears below the title.

Honestly I would LOVE to know how I did this too! The only possible thing I could think of would be that I had the description in enabled as pinned to the header before the most recent update when it got moved to be a global property below the title.

I noticed it immediately after the update, but thought, “Eh, hopefully someone else will put in a bug report for this” and it never happened (at least from what I saw), so here I am 🙂

Hi @antonQA, the issue still persists on v0.47.3 ☹

Can we reopen this thread or should I create another bug report? I’m happy to add any more details if I can provide them.

Hi @sandyeggo !  
Thank you for the report. We have added a special mechanism that removes description from type’s properties list. To trigger it head to Object types menu, select the type that has description stuck in header and press “Reset to match the Type” button.

 ![image](https://community-static.anytype.io/original/3X/0/9/091d756ef740d77ba984dae1dd91711c23586144.png)

Please note that this button also resets layout of all objects of this type to type settings!  
E.g. if you have some objects with **note** layout, while type has **page** layout, when you press this button all object receive **page** layout

The mechanism will be included in next release. We will provide you with exact version later

@sandyeggo please try out latest desktop alpha version!  
As I see v0.47.37-alpha already includes the fix

You can download this **specific alpha version (v0.47.37-alpha)** here:

> **[Release v0.47.37-alpha · anyproto/anytype-ts](https://github.com/anyproto/anytype-ts/releases/tag/v0.47.37-alpha)**
>
> Official Anytype client for MacOS, Linux, and Windows - Release v0.47.37-alpha · anyproto/anytype-ts

_Note that this is not the latest release_

About joining: I see the **alpha tag next to your name** , so you’re probably already an alpha user !?

The alpha tag on the forum indicates that the user has been a member since before Anytype entered beta. Alpha releases are completely separate from that.

Sorry @sandyeggo I also was confused by alpha tag 🙈

@Filip I guess latest release version should include description fix. Remind me if I am wrong 🙂

@Filip / @kirillston I reset the layout settings to default and that fixed it, so this is no longer a problem 🙂
