☐ cool new feature
☐ could help many users!

☑ removes a „bug“

☐ nice to have

☐ nobody needs it

 

 

The code in the formula editor can be either constructed by clicking on variables, columns or function in the menu on the left, by dragging items into the formula window - or directly by typing in the code.

In the latter case, after typing in the first character, a small jsl code editor pops up and the user can continue to enter the code.

There is even syntax highlighting

Unfortunately, it happens very often that the second - or even third - character is lost:

Do other users experence the same issue?

What's the benchmark typing speed? 3 missed characters?

I hope, the issue can be fixed in a future release of jmp

Seems that this issue got solved in JMP 17.0.
No missing second characters anymore
