[BUG] OnTextChange with Text field set to "Number"

#1

Hi!

When you set a text field’s type to Number, at least in Chrome it adds little up and down buttons to in- or decrease the number in the textfield. When those are used, OnTextChange isn’t called.

Hi Kevin,

I believe this is a known issue for certain types of text fields, such as the Number and Date type fields. While OnTextChange won’t kick in for a change triggered by the browser-specific options for the number field (such as the up and down arrows that appear in Chrome), it looks like it should kick in if:

  1. There is no hint style applied to the text field

  2. A different event such as OnMouseUp or OnLostFocus is used.

I’ll file this thread with the main case on our end, but in the meantime hopefully this helps!

Is this ever going to get fixed at all?

This breaks my prototype!

Hi MsG,

This still exists, but I’ll let our teams know that more users are running into this issue. For now, it may help to build a custom text field with custom up/down arrows, or the workarounds Alyssa mentioned, but lmk if you want more targeted assistance. :slight_smile:
