RichText Input Showing Previous Text When Auto Binding

Questions
1

Hey y’all, having a weird thing happening with my rich text input element (plug in) that I’m using. I have it set up to auto bind. However, whenever I modify the text and click outside of the element for it to auto bind/save, for a brief moment it shows the previous text again, and then shows the changes I made. It looks very glitchy from an end user standpoint (specially for consumers). How would I go about making it not behave this way?

I’ve uploaded a video to demonstrate what’s happening. Any help would be great:

Does it save the text correctly? I have similar issues.
When I change the thing that populates my fields, the rich text input saves the previous text.
I’m guessing it has to do with autosave and/or focus issues, but either way it’s bad because it throws around all your data.

I actually got it resolved by updating to a more recent version of the rich text editor/input plug in!! i recommend trying that.

which one are you using?

I got this on the last version. I sent a bug report some hours ago.
I could not erase text, or type a new text.

Seems to happen only when Extend to fit is enabled

autobinding with RTE is a total mess

Is this fixed already? Or anyone found a workaround?

I cannot replicate the issue even though a few of my users are reporting it.
