TextEntry placeholder not working for related models

TextEntry::make('book.description')
  ->placeholder('None'),

TextEntry::make('book.description')
  ->placeholder('None'),

This should show "None" but is blank. I can see in

vendor/filament/infolists/resources/views/components/text-entry.blade.php::65

vendor/filament/infolists/resources/views/components/text-entry.blade.php::65

the state get's wrapped, which is causing it to be [ 0 => "" ] which resolves to true when deciding whether or not to show the placeholder. is this a bug?

public function book(): BelongsTo
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(Book::class);
    }

    }

$table->text('description')->nullable();

Not sure, but this sounds like a bug or so. You could make a PR. As a quick solution you could use formatStateUsing or something

I too had this issue, but have just upgraded to Filament v3.2.31 and the issue appears to have been resolved in one of the recent versions - I am now seeing the correct placeholder('...') text appear in tables for related model fields that are empty (NULL).
