What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Create a new file. 2. Create a textbox and set the label (string content) to "abc". 3. Save it. 4. Open it and the label is empty instead of "abc". 5. However, if I double click the textbox, "abc" will appear again.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

"abc" expected but got an empty string.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Pencil 2.0.3 on Ubuntu 12.10

Please provide any additional information below.

Also happens with Fedora 19

Also happens with Windows 7 (I'm using the Native UI Widgets)

Also Pencil 2.0.5 on Ubuntu 13.10 64 bit

Same situation on me. Pencil 2.0.5 on Windows 7 Pro.

I tried different stencil and only Native UI widget has the issue.

FYI. I tried Pencil 2.0.3 and it worked fine.

This is broken for me on 2.0.3 and 2.0.5 on Mac OS X 10.8.5.

I have the same problem on Windows 8 Pro 64bit with Pencil 2.0.5. Also using "Desktop - Native UI Widgets".

The problem is NOT reproducible on Pencil 2.0.3, so I'll be using that until this bug is fixed.

It seems the bug was introduced between 2.0.3 and 2.0.5.

Same problem on Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit with Pencil 2.0.5. Same bug on Mac OS X.

Same problem, Windows 7 Pro 64 with Pencil 2.0.5

Additional Info: Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit with Pencil 2.0.3 doesn't have this issue

Additional info: Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit with Pencil 2.0.5 has this issue

I also have this issue with W7 Professional 32 Bit with pencil 2.0.5

A fix for this would be really appreciated.

has anyone figured out a way aound?

same here W7 Pro 32bit; Pencil 2.0.5

FYI this is a duplicate of issue 579

A workaround that seems to work for me is to downgrade to 2.0.2. This is on Mac OS X 10.8.5

I tried different stencil and only Native UI widget has the issue.
