Description Ziad Ahmed 2026-02-02 14:07:42 UTC
Description:
In the forms section if there is a columb in the database that has Memo(TEXT) it does not delete the old text when i enter a new one and the text just overlaps and i cannot check any description of a selected item.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a postgresql database that has a Memo(Text) Col
2. Create a Form for that table
3. Try to search/edit or add a new item

Actual Results:
Texts overlaps creating an unreadable text that i cannot see my text nor the old text



Expected Results:
A clean text sector that clears a char when backspace is pressed and clears out when a new item will be entered


Reproducible: Always
