Type text question takes time to identify inserted answer

Would anyone have a suggestion on how to resolve the issue of it taking a long time for a form to identify that a question field of type "text" has been filled in? Attached is an image of how the form is structured.

According to the attached image, the question "result" concatenates the answer to "question_01" and "question_02", but the answer to "question_02" in the vast majority of cases does not concatenate.

I apologize for the translation. I used the translator to help.

The issues is that question 2 is likely the last thing in the repeat. Users need to hit "Enter" for the calculate to trigger. If they just fill in Question 2 and then go to the next record in the repeat, the result is what you are experiencing.

A potential workaround would be to swap questions 1 and 2. These operations will work as expected:

  • Selecting from a dropdown
  • Entering a number into an integer/double field with the numbers appearance
  • The user manually pressing "enter" after typing into a text field
  • Clicking into another field (this does not include any general interaction with another field)
