Can't delete clip names

It’s basically the title. make a clip, name it, click out, click back, delete the whole name, click out, click back, the name is there again.

You basically want to name a clip and then unnamed it. At least it allows you to rename it, right? This is more like a feature… haha… Once the clip has a name, it is alive! Once it is alive it wants to be named… Once it is named, it does not want to be unnamed again… It makes sense!

Now, I think, It is something good to have, and probably a good practice to name all your clips… What I’m trying to say is, maybe this is something that they designed on purpose, not a bug. @Luxapodular

Dunno… I also realized that you can’t name a clip “finish.” I named it finish because I didn’t know what else to name it, breaking the whole thing. I renamed it to “asdf” and it got solved. I guess it didn’t check if “finish” was some other JS thing or something.

Yeah… now that you are saying that… same thing happens when you try to name the clip with some name starting with “do”. try “domination” or something… since “do” is a reserve word of js, they are protecting against those things…

That doesn’t happen, when I name a clip “domination” it lets me type it. I think it’s because Wick Editor submits your changes while you are typing. But since I type at around 100 WPM Wick Editor doesn’t see I typed “do” because I was too fast for it. I don’t know why it is this way, they should have just made it so it gets submitted if you press enter or the textbox loses focus.

P.S. also this is the first time I’ve heard of do … while loops in JavaScript

Other P.S.: i was originally going to respond to awc but then i changed the body to respond to jovanny but forgot to change who i was replying to, so that’s what the deleted post is

:stuck_out_tongue: well played my dude

:D It happens to me, my keyboard writing skills are the worst… I’m very slow… for dudes like me, happens… This is the message when I start to name something with “do…”

do_

and… every day we can learn… so, yeah, we can use the old do/while loops in js. :stuck_out_tongue:

Looks like test.wickeditor.com respects the fact that I want to unname something. Yay :]
