Hi @aidanfindlater! Welcome!
Thanks for posting this — that does sound like a confusing interaction to track down and I think having a post here will definitely will help others find an answer
.
In case it's helpful to anyone in the future, I can reproduce this problem on:
- RStudio Edition: Desktop
- RStudio Version: 1.2.1335
- OS Version: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6
- R Version: 3.6.0 (2019-04-26)
- Alfred Version: 4.0.3 [1092]
(And wow is it annoying!
)
But I could not reproduce it on RStudio Cloud:
- RStudio Edition: Server Pro
- RStudio Version: 1.2.1335.1
- Running via Firefox 68.0.1 on the same Mac as above
I didn't see any issues in the Github tracker about this weird interaction. If you want to consider filing one, here's your starting point: RStudio IDE Guide: Writing Good Bug Reports
