We are having an issue with a Demo of a Notes field that begins with an existing text string (1st sentence), and shows a new text string (2nd sentence) being added to the end of the 1st sentence. The Demo starts by simulating typing the 1st sentence, only goes about 24 characters, then "jumps" to the end and displays both sentences. It looks like a "skip" in the Demo b/c no text is typed after the jump. It just appears.
Does SEN have a character limit for simulated typing of Input Text? Or am I programming this incorrectly?
I entered the 1st sentence in the Value field. 2nd sentence in the Input Text field, and both sentences in the End Value field. This works fine in Practice mode, but it "jumps" in Demo mode. I've attached screen shots. macro-editor.jpg macro-editor-pt-2.jpg 1st-sentence.jpg 2nd-sentence-final-result.jpg
Any advice?
Hi Dirk. Yes, on playback in Demo mode. Glad you mentioned you exited the editor, saved, and went back in. That must have been the issue we had earlier today (which is why I asked the question). We extended the timing from 6 sec to 14 sec and now it works as expected on playback in Demo mode. Thank you again!

This is on playback in Demo mode? Yes, it is down to Display Duration. You have the Animated property selected (deselect this and it will just do it all at once), so it will start typing the characters one at a time, building out the Input Text (starting with the first sentence in your example). If it reaches the end of the Display Duration before it has finished typing then it just inserts the rest of the text all at once.
I just tried it, setting the Display Duration to 100 and it didn't make a difference. I exited the editor, saved to server, went back in and it had reset to 4 seconds. I changed it again, and this time on preview it worked. Not sure why it worked the second time, but this IS the right setting. I've used it before and it works well.
