When I'm typing notes into an outline, sometimes text I've just typed disappears randomly. Usually it's about 5-7 words. I start typing on a new bullet line, and then suddenly what I'm typing disappears. Is this happening for anyone else?

  Yikes. We are currently working on hunting down a bug that might be causing this. What browser and type of computer are you seeing this happen on? Is it still happening? Thanks.

  We are still looking into this. Is it still happening for you? On what browser or version of WorkFlowy?

  Hey Lee, 
  
  No idea if this is related, but I've had situations where I create a new bullet and add content... using JavaScript not typing.. and the bullet appears empty. I never see the text, BUT I can undo via Ctrl+Z and the text "reappears". Which makes me wonder if the bug is related to background save.

  I also have experienced this over the past couple days. I agree with Rawbytz. Because I'm able to recover the text via Ctrl+Z, I think it's related to the background save.

  I'm working in Google Chrome online version.

  Same problem here -- chunks of what I just typed, just disappear, even though I have good internet. Unless I keep pressing Control-S to save every 10 seconds, I run the frequent risk to lose material... I lose material every minute.
