Is there a way to set the name of the puzzle to what user wants in Expo? Currently, the puzzle name can be set to only what is available in drop down list ...
I wanted to name my puzzle Skyscrapers (Cipher) but was able to name it Skyscrapers only as the drop down menu had only this ....

Of course, you can type the exact name that you want, outside the list shown. In that case, you have to fill in the rules
