SurveyJS v1.9.98 introduces the capability to disable the default behavior that immediately focuses the cursor on the title of a newly added question to enable its editing, and includes several bug fixes.

SurveyJS v1.9.98 enhances the default behavior of the survey building tool that immediately highlights a question title of a newly added question to allow its editing. This new functionality is intended to enable survey creators to have more control over the editing process and help avoid any accidental changes being made to the question titles as new questions are added to surveys or forms. Respondents can now manually select and edit the title at any moment they want.

In order to prevent the cursor from focusing on the question title right after you drag and drop a new question from the Toolbox, or as you click the Add question button on the design surface, set the startEditTitleOnQuestionAdded property of the creator object to false.

creator.startEditTitleOnQuestionAdded = false;

Dropdown

Form Library

• Dropdown: The arrow icon that is expected to expand and collapse the list of choice options only expands it. (#6226)
• The editText property that gets and sets a caption for the Edit button in the Preview mode does not update the locale on the locale change while being rendered. (#6523)
• React: The survey.onValueChanging function returns a case-insensitive value, and as a result, it does not update the input value of a text entry field to uppercase. (#6519)
• Next.js: An error occurs when attempting to build or deploy the Next.js application that includes a SurveyJS quiz. (#6531
• When attempting to copy the value of a question using the copyvalue trigger instead of copying the display value, it copies the internal value of the question, which is used for identification purposes. The copyDisplayValue property is missing in the trigger. (#6534
• The completeTrigger parameter is not specified in the onComplete event call, when it should be included. (#6521)

Survey Creator

• The dropzone is missing as a new question is added to the third and subsequent pages of a survey. (#4209)
• Opacity issue: The page navigation popup appears too transparent compared to the background (the design surface). (#4316)
