Has anyone else noticed issues with the cursor jumping to the bottom when editing a complex template column?

There is no resolution yet [image] Typing Issues in the Builder Report a Bug Lately, I’ve been having trouble typing in the builder. There are often leaps and even backward deletion of the last letter that has been typed. Has anyone experienced the same thing?

Same thing with renaming apps. And I do it quite often for my backups

Is there any idea when this is going to be fixed? It is really painful when having to constantly re-type a word just to get to the end of word. Or realizing that a letter dropped and that is why nothing works in an ITE column. Hopefully very soon?

I think you should contact support via chat, because this case is not the same for every application.

Yes, happens a lot. Not just Template columns, all column types can be affected. For things like templates and JavaScript columns, what I do is prepare them in a text editor and paste them into the Glide column. Results in a lot less swearing at my computer.

Yes, it even freezes my computer. To ease the frustration, I usually create a new app for testing purposes. It seems like there’s a heavy performance issue from Glide that’s really straining the computer.

Thanks Darren - glad to know I am not the only. Seems to happen more frequently in the last month or so. From annoying to nearly un-workable.

Besides long template columns, I have the jumping cursor in other places as well - seems like just about anywhere there is text input connected to a component or action. Column or action names for sure.
