Additional information
- this doesn’t happen in a .base file, only for embedded bases.
- there’s a clearer clip on Discord where you can see the formula editor flash slightly at times.
- the same on two Macs; haven’t checked on Windows yet.
- if I keep clicking
Edit formula… the menu eventually does show up (every 7~10 clicks?).
