Can't create new notes, if there are existing files with the name Untitled & Untitled 1

Bug graveyard
1

Hi, I can’t create a new note in the vault root. Only thing, I think can be causing this is that I have two notes, Untitled & Untitled 1 in the Vault root. I can create notes in the nested folders (where there is no untitled file present)

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create Untitled file
  2. Create Untitled 1 file

Expected result

A new note

Actual result

Environment

Mac OS X
V. 0.7.3

Additional information

Error in Developer console:

I am unable to reproduce. Do you have a default folder set up for new notes?

3

It’s set to Same folder as the file is in

4

and how are you attempting to create this new files in the vault? using the button? using a shortcut?

Using the New note button. Weirdly, it’s only causing the problem in the vault root. If I create multiple notes under a nested folder, it works as expected. Perhaps that should help you reproduce it.

what happens if you rename untitled to another filename and then rename it back to untitled

8

Renaming Untitled, creates a new note. However, can only create one. After that its back to square one

9

where is your other Untitled file?

10

Vault root. tried renaming that as well, max you can get to is till Untitled 1

11

One is in the root and the other is?

12

Both are in vault root. Everywhere else, it works as expected.

  1. Renaming Untitled - Allows you to add just one new note.
  2. Renaming Untitled 1 & Untitled - Allows you to add just two new notes.

Bug is only prevalent in the vault root. Nowhere else (Atleast as of now)

13

Do you have an Untitled 2 somewhere?

14

No.

Quick update: Re-opening the vault fixes the bug
