Data that I have contained in a column being used as Title Text on new screens is not showing up consistently.

The data is kept in the column below, titled “Categories”  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/d/d/dd20369b957cce2e793b2c3c7422b622bbb321b4.png)

Here, it’s showing up:

And here it is, missing:

Any ideas what could be causing this?

What’s the action that leads you to this screen?

I’m using a Collection with a custom action that emulates what Independent Screens used to do:

If you add a breadcrumbs to the top of that page, would it show up on desktop?

That’s weird. I would suggest submitting a ticket if you can reliably reproduce it.

I would love to but I’m on a starter plan so 🤷‍♂️

@drascon gave me access to the app. I studied this and noticed a weird bug.

 ![Riverside County EMS Protocol Manual · Glide 2023-08-09 at 6.56.58 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/6/a/6aac03f8e6db68fda31c640f847e75fac7b0e1d9.jpeg)

Basically putting a title at the top of the screen hides the “screen title”.

Are you sure - have you been able to replicate it in your own Apps?  
I just tried it (because I’d like to exploit the behaviour), but I couldn’t get it to “work” as you described 🤷‍♂️

Is it the case for you? Must be emphasized this happens only on the mobile version.

</div>

ah, okay - now I can replicate it.

hehe, the idea I had was to use an empty Title component to hide the screen title. Problem is, as soon as you empty the Title fields, the effect goes away 🤦‍♂️

I ended up replacing the Title component with two Text components and it resolved the issue - thank you to @ThinhDinh for investigating it and pointing out the bug 💪

Glad to help! Could never find it without the deeper dive in the builder. Thanks for working with me for access.

Because you were able to replicate the issue, will the Glide dev team log it as an actual bug?

I’m just a fellow user like you. It might require an actual support ticket to escalate that to the dev team. If you can log it we would appreciate that a lot.

Is there a mechanism to submit the bug report outside of the AI attendant? It’s not very helpful.

> Please note: the option to create a support ticket is only available if your App is in a Pro, Business or Enterprise Team. If you need help with a Billing Issue (on any plan), you should open a Billing Enquiry via the [Glide Support Page](https://www.glideapps.com/support). To create a Support Ticket: Open the App that is giving you problems, and go to Settings → Contact Support: Glide will prompt you to create a support link for your App. Click on Create Link:

Does this work for you?

It does not - I believe the support ticket feature is only available for Pro plans and up, and I’m on a Starter plan. I did use the Support Chat, though, and got to talk (albeit briefly) to a live human being. I pasted the link to this thread and described the issue and got, “Ok, thank you” as a response. Hopefully that means it’s been logged.

Ah yes, that’s correct.

Hopefully the issue will be resolved soon.
