Recalculation between typing in different text fields

Hi all,

I’m trying to make some text fields for users to fill in their info when submitting a model via e-mail export. I’m noticing that, when I’m typing in a text field, when I’m done filling in one field or when I’m waiting too long between typing, the app recalculates, making my cursor disappear and typing impossible while recalculating. Also, when I’m done in a field and press tab before the recalculation, my next field gets interrupted by the recalculation (I’m hoping this explenation makes a little sense!)

I know you can add parameter validation, so that you have to click accept before the recalculation starts, but I’m afraid some users would be confused or forget to press accept. I have a boolean below the fields to accept the terms, so that would be the ideal trigger for the recalculation after filling in all the fields.

Is this possible?

Thank you!!

Our team is working on a solution for this use case. I will update this topic once we make progress.

We have released a beta version of the Form widget, which solves the problem described in this thread. Check out the beta tutorial called “Create form inputs linked to a file export” on this page.
