Please stop (automatically) resetting input fields in desktop App  #3222

Hello.

The desktop app regularly resets its input fields (nonce, to address, amount..).

Typical scenario: I want to transfer some funds to an exchange.

  • I fill out all the fields in the desktop app on an offline computer (but use only a very small amount of coins as a test, first)
  • Sign the transaction
  • Go to mycrypto.com on an online computer and broadcast the signed transaction
  • Make sure the coins arrived at the exchange, to verify I entered address, nonce, gas limits and gas price etc appropriately
  • Go back to my offline computer and the desktop app where I want to increase the number of tokens and nonce, without changing receivers address!, but as soon as i click into the nonce input field the whole form resets to empty!

So I effectively cant use the desktop to send a small amount first and then send the real quantity, which is very dangerous. Its very easy to make a mistake and doing a "dry run" first is a great precaution.

Maybe this resetting is by design ,but it is very disadvantageous and dangerous in situations such as above. Please stop this resetting of the input fields, or at least make it possible to disable it as an option somewhere.

Many Thanks in Advance
