I really like the new update. The moving of the submit button was an update I hadn’t thought of, but it’s definitely a useful one. I believe this version introduced a bug, though.
Background:
I dictate many clozes per day in listening mode. I had gotten into the habit of tapping into whitespace after the dictation’s made and then hitting submit, because in a much earlier version, hitting enter or submit or both (I forget) directly would cause the TTS audio not to load on the next sentence, I guess since dictation hadn’t been intentionally turned off. More recently I’d occasionally tap enter on the keyboard directly, knowing the old bug was addressed (but old habits die hard ). So I’m reasonably sure this is new.
Scenario:
A new sentence loads, I dictate the answer, and the correct dictation appears in the answer field. I hit the keyboard icon in the bottom right of the dictation area (same place as where the enter key is) to stop dictation and to be able to tap ‘enter’. I quickly tap ‘enter’ and the sentence is marked wrong. I see in the answer field that the cloze word has been duplicated and inserted before the original dictation with a space character in between. This does not happen if I tap in whitespace or on the green submit button directly after dictation, while dictation is still running. This happens 100% of the time when I stop dictation the “right” way to get back to the keyboard.
For example, for a cloze word ‘dictation’, I say “dictation” and I get “Dictation” in the answer field. I hit the keyboard icon and my response is transformed into “dictation Dictation”.
Speech-to-text can give some unexpected output, as I’ve seen over time, but I don’t think I’ve seen this before.
Anyway, thanks for 2.9.5!
