I’m not a developer so please excuse the lack of technical terminology. When creating a data binding with component.option, every now and again it happens that as I’m typing, it creates new fields with stages of what I’m typing (see screenshot, does a much better job). I’m using the Brave browser on a 2015 MacBook Pro. If you need any more detail please let me know!

Hi @lenapgl !

After some investigation, this definitely looks like a bug in Builder. Thanks for reporting!

We will look into how to fix this issue, but in the meantime if you try typing in binding names a little bit slower you should hopefully be able to avoid this.
