>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1359
>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Core UI
>         Environment: Apache Nifi 0.4.1
>            Reporter: Nigel Jones
>            Assignee: Scott Aslan
>            Priority: Minor
>
> I imported the twitter garden flow template from https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/Example+Dataflow+Templates
> I instantiated this flow and went to the twitter node to configure
> In configuration I went to paste in relevant API key/secret information from my twitter developer page
> Pasting text into normal fields works fine
> However if text is pasted into Access Token Secret or consumer Secret it appears as italicized text. If the user hits "OK" that text is not saved.
> The workaround is to manually add a space after the pasted text, and then backspace to remove the space before hitting ok. The pasted key is then saved correctly, and "sensitive value set" appears.
> This confused me for quite a while when I tried using the twitter processor for the first time. I couldn't figure out why my twitter node wasn't appropriately authorized before finally realising the issue was cut/paste
> Appears to be a UI issue that I'd guess affects all sensitive fields
> Browser is chrome 48.0.2564.48 beta (64 bit) on OS/X but I've had the same issue with previous builds on Windows.
