Issue persists on Mendix 9. I am on 9.6.6 and still encounter this problem.
Did you issue a support ticket already?
I'd like to add that even with Javascript inside of the chrome console you cannot set an input value to something else. Seems like the value has a hard connection with the database value instead of the frontend
Hi Tom,
Yes, we did issue a support ticket a year ago, and we received a workaround from Mendix:
“Replacing the command
.clear()
with
.send_keys(Keys.CONTROL, "a", Keys.DELETE)
There was indeed a big technical change for the textbox in Mendix 8, as the textbox is now react-based.”
