Hi. I searched the forum before posting this and only found one older mention of a bug yet the issue seems to remain.

Does anyone have any insights on the following: Using an array (text) type of question and setting the field to "Numbers only", the field will occasionally erase keyed in values even though they are numbers. Yet other times it works perfectly fine.

One older post mentioned that this seems to occur more when tabbing from field to field. We noticed it even when manually selecting fields with our cursor. They also mentioned that right align seems to have the issue when left doesn't. We actually need to keep it right aligned.

It happens intermittently. As we all can assume, it must be the JS listener running on focus/blur/or change to the field. If I was to key in a non-numeric character, this behavior would be correct. It just seems to misfire once in awhile when it is a correctly keyed in number (solid integer, floating point, negative).

Current version of LS: Version 3.25.1+201124
Browsers tested in: FireFox, Chrome, Edge most current versions of each.

We submitted the bug to LS today and will follow up in this post if resolved for future problem solvers.

Thanks
ps...I tried to edit this post to move to the Design category. The others didn't seem to make sense and I accidentally posted to the installation category. Please relocate as needed since I didn't see a method to move it after the initial post. Thanks

Per your request here is the bug issue URL: bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=15180

Our initial post must have been combined with this earlier post from another user since they share similar challenges. I couldn't find the exact one we posted yet see this updated to today's date (which is when we posted ours).

Thanks
