Frontmatter UI is disapearing on adding metadata

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to the folder with md file in visual studio
  2. Right-click on the folder and add a folder to project
  3. Open md file and if in Frontmatter section "Metadata" title and description empty, try type text.
  4. UI quickly disappears and only way i found how to open it again restart VS code

Expected behavior
UI should be still visible

Hi @ValerasNarbutas would you be able to record a video about the behavior? Seems I'm missing something in your steps in order to reproduce the issue.

hey, sorry did not responded and yes still an issue, but i have a feeling its due to my pre existing redme's.
what do you use if you want to record a gif? i can do small demo or we can have a teams call.

That is a good idea, but first, could you try out the latest beta to see if that gives you the same result. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=eliostruyf.vscode-front-matter-beta
