I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
I have included the browser console logs.
I have included the Docker container logs.
I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
Include any files or environmental changes,
Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.

Expected Behavior

Sending a queued message should not clear unrelated draft text currently being typed by the user.

Actual Behavior

The current draft text in the input box is cleared when the queued message is sent.

Steps to Reproduce

Enable Message Queue in settings.
Start a chat and send a prompt.
While assistant is still generating, type another prompt and send it (it goes into queue).
Before queue is drained, type a new draft in the input box (do not send).
Wait for queued message to auto-send (or click Send Now on queued item).

Logs & Screenshots

After message done:

Additional Information

For queue-driven sends (auto-drain and “Send Now”), call submit with a flag that disables input-clearing behavior (e.g., setTextAndFocus=false) and avoid resetting bound prompt in that path.
