Please restore attached (clip) icon in Source Box

SueTaylor said: Previously when I attached a source from my source box, the word Attach changed to a clip icon. In the past week that has not happened. I can go back to the person and see that it was attached properly, but I miss the icon confirmation.

I use Google Chrome browser with Windows 10, if that has any effect.

I wonder if this is related to the problem I recently noticed on the WikiTree/FamilySearch connection app, where adding the reciprocal link in a person's sources on FS doesn't ever look like it's finished, but if you go look, the linking source is there.

Something about the source-attachment process has gone wonky, so that the signal of "done" never gets through.

True, the clip appears when I refresh the page, or when I go back to the person then return to the source box from their page.

FYI

You are not alone.

This was also brought up in a recent post of some 14 Days ago.

Source attachment screen does NOT update its attached status with paperclip after attachment is made

'Yes', like yourself, Justin, and, many who use the "Source Box", I too noticed this some time ago; but, considering all the other problems/issues in "Family Tree"; and, the fact that there has been NO implementation of the many suggested enhancements to the "Source Box", that have been requested over the Years, I could NOT be bothered to raise the matter.

It certainly is disconcerting when you are adding Four (x4) of more "Sources", in a row, relating to a "Marriage" Event; and, you are not certain if they were in fact attached; or, you actually did miss attaching one of those "Sources" - I like to add certain "Sources" in a particular order.

Now, because of this newly occurring fault/flaw, after I add (or, at least, think I have added) the Four (x4) of more "Sources", like 'Juli', 'Justin' and you are aware, I "Refresh" the "Source Box" to ensure that the "Paper Clip" appears [but, it can take time to reload; as, I have 21,456 "Sources" (I would love to know how many pages/screen that is - like in this Forum) in my "Source Box"].

It certainly would be nice if just SOME of the many suggested enhancements (eg. prime example, one of the most requested, a "Search" facility/function/feature in the "Source Box") were implemented in the "Source Box".
