Add Property context menu - closing instantly after opening

Steps to reproduce

  • the properties box. Want to add a new custom property.
  • click add property, the default options are available in drop down to make a custom property, I used to right click the property icon.
  • however when I right click the context menu, to select alternate property types appears for only a second before closing and instantly removes the new property

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Y - the images pasted are from sandbox

Expected result

I expected to view the options for property type and, in this instance, make a new list property for the vault.
this menu in the image here

Actual result

The image provided shows the context menu but only for a second before disappearing and removing the new property altogether. This image was taken a second after the previous image.

Environment

As noted in my images all tests of this were done in the sandbox after updating all plugins and app - and restarting.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Custom theme and snippets: for cosmetic issues, please first try updating your theme and disabling your snippets. If still not fixed, please try to make the issue happen in the Sandbox Vault or disable community theme and snippets.
Community plugins: for bugs, please first try updating all your plugins to latest. If still not fixed, please try to make the issue happen in the Sandbox Vault or disable community plugins.

I am not sure there is a bug here. First you need to write something and then you can change its type.

I agree the UX is not the best.

will be fixed in v1.8
