Filter via text box behaviour change

Hi all,

Last week I have noticed an inconvenient behaviour change in the apps I am developing. I regularly use text boxes to filter the results of my galleries and until last week the results of the filter happened immediately as you typed in the field. Now it is not until the text box parameter loses focus that the gallery filters. Is this a known bug?

Cheers,

Sam

That's the name of the new one that essentially makes DelayOutput useless.

Thanks for the reminder, I couldn't recall it for yours or another thread.

Ok we have found the answer now - is a matter of updating the "TriggerOutput" property to "Keypress"

@FOXS1

yes and no. I am going to go on a limb and say that most of us that are considered experts intentionally use the Delay property so that it didn't fire every single time someone typed a character.

So I would assume yes it is, because otherwise peoples code was firing over and over and over and in many if not most cases, it didn't need to or want it to be.

Verify if someone set the Delay property on your controls.

Perhaps the enterprise version our team uses was behind on some updates? Either way is this an intentional change?
