--- Comment #12 from Jack <ostroffjh at users.sourceforge.net> ---
OK, I think I found the pattern.  After you type in the new category name,
there are three ways to trigger the add category process, but all essentially
involve the focus leaving that field.  You can hit Enter (which "should" do the
same as clicking the check mark,) you can tab to the next field, or you can
click the button with the check mark.  If you click OK, it just saves the whole
transaction without any changes and the new category pop-up is not invoked.
If you hit Enter, you demonstrate the bug, where the new category is created,
but not kept in the category field of the split.  If you tab or explicitly
click the check mark, the new category is left as you typed it.
So you have an easy workaround (hit Tab or click the check mark) but we need to
figure out why hitting Enter does trigger the new category pop-up but does not
leave that new category displayed.
I've changed the title of the bug to hopefully be more descriptive.
