Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/315

Every now and then I accidentally create a split transaction which is hard to undo (already discussed in https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/328), but today I have noticed that it's not really me being clumsy but there is a bug in the UI which changes the transaction into a split when it should not.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Import some new transactions
  2. Click on the 'Categorize' column on any uncategorized transaction (let's call it TransA). Don't input anything at this stage.
  3. Switch focus to any other application window
  4. Click back into the Actualbudget window, but select any other transaction (for example one below the originally selected. Let's call it TransB)

Expected result: The cursor moves to a new transaction TransB , leaving the original transaction TransA uncategorized.

What actually happens: Original transaction TransA is unnecessarily converted into split. The cursor is also placed there instead of TransB.

Example:
