    Hi @Robert94 

     

    I'm not seeing any issue. I have a similar thing which is the patch command on OnChange event. In General, I used to set DelayOutput to True so that system will wait until I complete my typing.

     


    Thanks, Stalin

    The bug is when trying to jump from a text input to another, the cursor won`t remain on the text input to write after clickin once, I `d have to press a 2nd time in order for it to remain there so I can write.

    Hi @Robert94 ,

     

    Actually I think it makes sense, once you move away the cursor and put it on another text input, the previous one triggers the Patch function then you will lose the cursor from the current text input box. You could add an independent button beside the previous control and set the OnSelect formula to replace what is in OnChange. So end users will need to click the button to run the Patch function and it will take time to move the mouse so the cursor will not disappear from the text input as Patch has been triggered before.

     

    Hope this helps.
