Description

I am having problems editing attribute data in 2.18.13 – when the layer is in edit mode - the edits typed into the attribute table are not shown untill after save and re-opening the table.
This happens with both PostGIS and shapefile layers.
Earlier versions of QGIS work fine on the same project.

Please see attached mp4 video demonstrating some of the problem, with only one feature in the layer.
I will upload a second one to show how it behaves for the second feature digitised.

With only one feature in the layer, enter attributes into each cell, tabbing across from cell to cell.
You see the data being entered, but it disappears when you tab to the next cell.
Also, when you do a simple calculation, the result fails to display in the relevant cell.

Only on clicking Save, then the data items appear.
Not shown here, but sometimes not even the Save will make the data visible. Then you have to close and re-open the Attribute Table to see the entered data in the cells.

Attached mp4 shows data being entered for a second feature.

This time, the data disappears on the first 'tab' but then reappears when I tab again, so the data entry is displayed one cell behind where it should be.
The result of the calculation is more consistently failing to display until Save is clicked.
However, I hear that it may display on scrolling if I had more features in the layer to scroll with.

#17262.
Both bugs are concerning data entry in attribute table 'table view'.
It may be efficient to fix both errors together.

Also #17187 - This is a very similar bug, currently classed as High Priority, and it is actually shown in the mp4 videos entered here above.
Also #17280 - this is basically the same bug.

I suggest the category should be 'Attribute Table', not 'Editing'.
