Clicking Alias Field in Doctype does not preselect the alias

[LindenKopp]

Which Umbraco version are you using?

17.0.0-rc2

Bug summary

When clicking on the lock Icon in the editor of an DocType, in older Versions (latest I know of is 13) the value of the alias was preselected, which I really liked.

In Umbraco 17 that isn't the case anymore.

Specifics

Alias_preselect.mp4

Steps to reproduce

Go to any Doctype and klick the alias symbol. The value won't be preselected anymore.

Expected result / actual result

• Klick on alias should preselct value
• Klick does set focus to last char in string

Hi there @LindenKopp!

Firstly, a big thank you for raising this issue. Every piece of feedback we receive helps us to make Umbraco better.

We really appreciate your patience while we wait for our team to have a look at this but we wanted to let you know that we see this and share with you the plan for what comes next.

• We'll assess whether this issue relates to something that has already been fixed in a later version of the release that it has been raised for.
• If it's a bug, is it related to a release that we are actively supporting or is it related to a release that's in the end-of-life or security-only phase?
• We'll replicate the issue to ensure that the problem is as described.
• We'll decide whether the behavior is an issue or if the behavior is intended.

We wish we could work with everyone directly and assess your issue immediately but we're in the fortunate position of having lots of contributions to work with and only a few humans who are able to do it. We are making progress though and in the meantime, we will keep you in the loop and let you know when we have any questions.

Thanks, from your friendly Umbraco GitHub bot 🤖 🙂
