What happened?

Whenever the new automation UI to make what used to be templates the interface just flickers and does not respond at all, I tried both the Microsoft Store and the regular version and both showed the same behavior, in Firefox it works fine and I also tried on my Fedora machine and it worked fine as well.

Just to be sure I also tried with a blank file to make sure it was not the particular file I was using and I could replicate it as well.

How can we reproduce the issue?

  1. Go to settings and enable experimental features
  2. Enable goal templates and the sub feature budget automations UI
  3. Go to budget
  4. Click the pie-like icon of any of the categories

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Desktop App (Electron)

Operating System

Windows 11
