I am not sure if this is a bug or not possible by design in the latest version?

I add a native glide table (not GSheet) and it creates a table with a random name but after that I cannot rename it!

Right clicking on the new table only offers “Unlink table from app”

Does double click on the name let you do so?

Sometimes you need to rename it 2 or 3 times before the change “sticks”

This thread is old, this is still an issue for you? Have you tried renaming it 2-3 times like Darren said above?

Actually it works, but absolutely user unfriendly. No input field, no blinking carriage, looks like just selected text and no one chance to guess it is able to type.
