BUG: Different escaping rule of formula field in the table view and app view

Your Setup:

  • SeaTable Self-hosted
  • SeaTable Version: 6.1

Describe the Problem/Error/Question:

  1. Create a table with formula field
  2. Add formula which outputs multiple “\” (eg. “\\path\\to\\SMB”)
  3. Create a app for this table
  4. The formula field shows differently in table and app (as shown below)

This is a bug, we will fix it.

The fix will be included in v7.0. The behaviour in the app view will be used.

This issue also concerns automations and also concernes lookup-linked columns to other tables

Behaviour in the Table view is correct, but incorrect in automations and App-View.
