Good First Issue Help Wanted Bug

We could try and remove the title attribute on click of the button? This removes the label on the web at least. Might be a good workaround.

Here's a codepen test: https://codepen.io/timothyis/pen/YajzNE

Hey @patrols I would like to take a crack at this. This is my first attempt at contributing to opensource and I would be glad if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks

Sure! @lexcorp16 Are you not able to reproduce this?

Here's the line that adds that title https://github.com/wulkano/kap/blob/master/app/src/renderer/views/main.pug#L34

I don't know what the best way to fix this is, feels like a bug with electron/chrome? We could do some hack to remove the title attrubute when the window goes away, or just remove it completely and save us the hassle,聽@skllcrn toughts?

It's really strange that a title attribute for an element in a window carries over to a new window like this... I don't think we should remove it completely though, we should rather make sure we have proper title attributes everywhere鈥攖hough that's another issue.

Seems like a common issue. I've had it many times before too with Chrome.
