Steps to reproduce
- Open Obsidian Mobile on Android tablet (Galaxy Tab S6 Lite in my case) after the 2023-02-13 (February 13, 2023) update
- Paste the following into a note:
---
# Obsidian
aliases: []
tags: [2023/02, journal/entry]
---
# Heading?
- bullet?
## Summary
- **Last time (...):**
- **Today:**
- **Next time (...):**
- Enable source mode if not already enabled
- Tap the screen once
- Observe how everything on the note is uncontrollably selected/deselected
NOTE:
- Issue does not occur with Live Preview mode, only Source mode
- Even though there is dataview content in this copy/paste, this bug is replicated in a brand new vault with just this text pasted in
- Flashing stops if you (a) highlight something or (b) open up the UI, removing focus from the note
- I tried deleting elements of the copy/paste above to see what the minimum input was to reproduce this issue, and got a new issue where red and blue dots (presumably some kind of invisible character?) were uncontrollably replicating themselves
Expected result
I expect to move my cursor to the point I tap and nothing else.
Actual result
Everything in the note is uncontrollably selected/deselected on loop until focus leaves the note. Additionally, trying to delete contents of the note causes red and white dots to be automatically written to the note, lagging and freezing the app
