I can’t reproduce it for Chinese characters under Win 10 in v0.42.5

Chinese Tag 2

.

Chinese Tag

But sometimes the effect you show in your recording happens indeed, also for English Tags.
I’m yet not sure under what circumstances it happens.

I would say: there seems to be a bug, but it has nothing to do with Chinese.

You are right. If I paste the words(English or non-English) from clipboard it works fine.

Hi @crimx

Could you please update your report to correspond with @Code-Jack and your latest findings? Thank you!

OP demonstrated input with two characters, which might or might not be related to how Anytype handle multiple character selection.

Different to OP, I can confirm this bug happens on v.0.42.5 on MacOS with Traditional Chinese (Chanjie) and under the following circumstances: After a character has been selected, but suggested character is still awaiting for selection or cancellation. Anytype doesn’t think the input has been completed.

My explanation of the cause to this bug for both my scenario and OP’s.

This bug happens with IME selection. Anytype couldn’t understand if the input of characters has been finished, thus doesn’t prompt creation.

Current resolution

Input a space (spacebar) after the name of tag and it should return to normal. The prompt will display. Then the extra space can be deleted if preferred.

Additional information

Similar behaviours with IME input method had been reported for search pane and library. (Although I can’t find them now)
