We've found the cause of the problem.  It happens whenever you move an item into a folder that is collapsed (disclosure triangle pointing to the right, so that its contents are folded up and not visible).  This is standard behavior for an outline view in OS X – selected items must be visible.

We're going to have to decouple the selection of the Inspector from the Content view.  In the meantime, the workaround is to keep your destination folders expanded (the opposite of collapsed).

OK, after pounding on it for about 20 minutes, I was able to make it happen.   Not easy to reproduce, though.  We'll get back to you when we've figured it out.  Thank you sheepcore for your persistence.

While I will add a screenshot if I remember it with the next occurance ...
"Name" and "Tags" fields were added info and have been blanked after moving. Comments have not been added, breadcrumps etc. below these were not looked at.

Hope, this helps ...?

OK, I shall pound on it some more.  If it happens again, please send us a screenshot so I can see how "blank" it is.  To take a screenshot on a Macintosh,

• Place your mouse/trackpad cursor at the top left hand corner of the area you wish to “shoot”.
• While hold down the ⌘ and 'shift' keys on your keyboard, type the '4' key.
• Click down, and while holding down, drag over to the bottom right corner of the area you wish to shoot.
• Let go of the mouse or trackpad button.  A "Picture" file will appear on your desktop.

Also, just to be clear, you clicked "Add & Inspect" in Firefox' Bookmarks menu.  Correct?

Mhh, just now it happened again ...

Was using FF 30.0, Bookmacster 1.22.8 and bookmarked the new page, not in my bookmarks or shelf yet, from the menu - Bookmarks / Add & Inspect.
Immediately with moving it into its destination folder from the inspector the inspector's dialogue box was blanked.

Let me know if you need additional info to reproduce and fix.

I've tried to reproduce the problem, but I don't get it.  Sheepcore, when you have 52 seconds please watch this little video, then reply and tell me what I should do differently to reproduce the problem.

When moving a bookmark the inspector is blanked.

Again and again I do not remember this "special" behaviour and am struggling with the isse to have to then go back and grab that bookmark again to edit tags, URL or else ...  Sad

Can you change this - or make it an option - to keep the edited bookmark until the next one is opened, basically making the inspector behave the same as w/ any other edit?
