Anyone else finding that typing in numbers is finicky? I have often selected the text and types 20, only to have it show 10. Then, then I highlight and try to type it again, it goes all strange.

It doesn’t seem to behave as expected in that I should be able to select the text,many type in the new number. I shouldn’t have to delete each number, then type in the amount.

Yes, it is quite irritating.
What is happening is that if you highlight a number, and move your mouse outside the box that the number is in, it immediately un-highlights the number. It is very easy not to notice.
I once accidentally made a buy order that wasted about a gold and a half due to the price I bid being about 10 times higher than expected when the number I thought I had highlighted was not replaced with what I typed.

I trade a lot and gotta agree, typing numbers in the Trading Post can be quite a challenge. The interface is inconsistent, the same actions don’t always yield the same results. And some strange ‘refreshings’ of values or even changing to a different number by itself while I try to type or . It’s hard to describe but I’m quite annoyed by sometimes having to type the same number 2-3 times.

These problems appear in every number field on the TP, buying, selling, or gem exchange.

Glad to see I’m not the only one having issues. I’ve filed a bug report, but I’m not ure if it’s a bug, or just sloppy UI design?
