Double-click on layer puts cursor at end of the layer name

Greetings all. I noticed since yesterday that when I double-click on layer to rename it, it puts the cursor at the end of the layer name.

This used to work differently before, as double-clicking would result in the whole layer name selected, and I can easily rename the layer. Now I have to be careful to check that the cursor is not at the end of the layer name.

I tested it a few times, it seems to work on and off (whole layer name selected VS cursor at the end of layer name).

This sounds related to another thread, but this is not about using CMD + R to rename as i don’t have a habit of doing that: Selecting name of a Layer in a Layers Panel

    Hey thanks for flagging. We received same reports and our engineering fixed it. So, could you try to reload the tab and try changing the layer name to see if the issue was resolved?

    Thanks,

      I am encountering the same issue as you guys. I tried restarting Figma, rebooting my computer, saving the files, and then downloading them to Figma, but the issue persists. Did you find any fix by any chance? Thanks for your help

      I have the same issue appearing now too. Tried restarting so many times and different files. Any fixes would be greatly appreciated 🙂 Thanks

      Thanks for flagging this! I’m not 100% sure if it’s related, but we did address a bug with shortcuts last week. It has since been fixed. Are you still experiencing the double-click issue? If so, could you please share a screen recording along with details about your working environment, such as your OS and whether you’re using the web or desktop app? I’ve tried to reproduce the issue but haven’t been able to.

      Thanks!
