Description popov895 2024-06-23 11:53:54 UTC

SUMMARY

Until 24.05.0, pressing any number key or the . after pressing Enter/= started a new expression - the current value was replaced by the value you entered. Since 24.05.0, the same action results in the entered value being appended to the current value, so to start a new expression, you need to press Esc/C/CA. It would be nice to bring back the previous behavior.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Enter 55*2 - input field contains 55*2, display field contains 110
2. Press Enter - input field contains 110, display field is empty
3. Enter 33 - display field is empty, but input field contains 11033 instead of 33
