Calculation values issue

    Hey JF,

    My form uses calculated values for program registrations set to run throughout 2018. Not all sessions have the same value. As session registration dates pass I have been deleting the expired dates from the top of the list, moving the rest of the dates up.

    The problem is that the associated values are not moving up with the dates. I know I can manually move all dates up, but the text entry fields do not always accept the data I input on the first try. This ends up making all updates far more arduous than I intend them to be.

    Is there a fix already in the works, or is there a better way to do this?

    Thanks in advance,
    Ginger

    I see what you mean by the calculation values not adjusting based on which option is removed.  I am not sure if this is how it is meant to work but I can see how it would be beneficial for the options to retain their associated values and for the list of values to remain intact.

    In any case, when making an entry to the calculation values, it seems to trigger an autosave immediately when entering the field.  Try waiting a second or so before making modifications and changes will stay the first time they are entered.
