Keyboard shortcuts for heard-only, male, etc. are not consistently saved
Issue #532
resolved
Background: Scythebill 15.1.1 in Windows 10 20H1
To reproduce the issue:
- Start a new entry using IOC taxonomy
- Enter, say, Blackbird in the species list, put “1” in its Number field, insert “>”, “≥” or “~” before it.
- Press the H key to enter a tick in the Heard only box, press Enter. The Heard only box is ticked, but no H appears in the Status column.
- Enter a second species, e.g. Robin, put “1” in its Number field. There is still no H in the Status column for Blackbird.
- Click “Done”.
- Reopen the visit: there is no H for Blackbird in the status column, and if I expand the Blackbird record, the Heard only box is unticked.
There is a workaround, in that at 3, if I manually untick and retick the Heard only box, an H does appear in the Status column and is saved. But when quickly trying to enter a bird list, it is easy to forget to do that, leading to data entry errors.

Changing the title - I don’t think it has anything to do with approximate field values.
This looks like any time that you use “h”, “m”, etc. to toggle those values, and don’t then edit description/count, or manually click a checkbox, the value doesn’t get saved. Which is bad.
Fixed, and much appreciation for the bug report.
