BUG REPORT - Personal Book Builder

It's probably an old bug (and I will be shocked if it's fixed lol), but I am reporting it here since I am on the beta - Verbum/Mac, 9.8 Beta 3. Add a book, and where you type in the Description, type some text, while the cursor is still in the description box, click to another tab within the desktop app, then click back - the text is gone! If you click out of the description box before clicking on another tab the text is not lost.

I filmed it in a short video on my dropbox account so you can see it:

I've been dealing with this problem for a long time too. If you type info in one box, and then click to another box before building or going to another tab, it will stay. Otherwise it does not save the new or updated data.

The Personal Book Builder REALLY needs to be reviewed and fixed/updated. This and several other problems have been reported and left unresolved for years, literally. This is a real problem for those of us who use personal books for other than just saving a static article or document. I use it for building a custom translation PB Bible as I study and teach. It is a powerful tool that would probably be more popular and helpful to others if it didn't have so many bugs.

I've created a case for this. Thanks for reporting the bug.
