Describe the bug

I have a template that before the latest update worked. It has a bordered box to input typed text. Before when I typed the numbers moved along from the cursor and you could see the number as typed. Now when I typed 47 I see the 4but not the 7 then when I leave the text box I can see the 47 okay.

Steps to reproduce

Open template with text box Click A in menu Click text box - keyboard pops up Type numbers First number seen next numbers are hidden Click out of text box both number seen
