Using Version 6 on the desktop - not webbased version of Geogebra.
Multiple students are encountering the same issue when entering or modifying data in a cell. They type the word or numbers press enter and the cell becomes empty again. Is there anyway to address this problem?
The same question 
I'm sorry, but cannot reproduce your issue (GeoGebra v.6.0.438 - Windows 10)
Which is your OS?
Can you upload a short video showing the issue?
I will try to capture a video when it happens again - I can't reproduce it right now either. Also, sometimes when we try to edit text and press enter it reverts to the previous text entry. I.E. trying to correct a typo.
Oh OS is Windows 10 as well GeoGebra v.6.0.356
Hi
It doesn't happen when you enter a word or a number
It happens when you enter both (for exemple t2) or special characters (for exemple t; or "t or...(but not t" or I'd))
So.. it means your input is not correct..
try this:
in A1 type 3
in A2 type =2*A1
then in A1 type any word you want. the input can be not correct but A2 is OK and A1 blank
try in ver 5. It is OK; A1 is 3 still
for a correct answer (for text), you have to write your text with ""
(for example "t2" or "t;", ...)
I will try the ""s. That sounds like the best fix for our problems. We are just making simple data tables and need to input labels.
I can't capture the issue with video but y'all have described it well. Will let you know if it works?
Hi again
An other solution :
If you want it works whatever you write, you can also check this box
but in this case, you have to always write "=" before writing a command
Sorry, my first screenshot was not good (and can't edit)
@ mathmagic
Finally, there is no problem if we check "requires "=" before commands"
as ALL others spreadsheet..! (Excel, OpenOffice,...)
(i never understood why GeoGebra spreadsheet accept no "=" before commands)
the problem continues. type this:
The quotation solution was what worked for us! Thanks all!
