Initial CellContent Bug

Bug Reports
1

Something’s not working the way it seems like it should. I created a series of activities to write text in a table based on the MC my students selected. It has been working for months in multiple activities (using the same code) however this summer I went back to these activities and the text no longer shows up immediately when the MC selection is clicked. It will however show up once you move to the next screen. I have not touched the coding from when I assigned the activity to my students (text was showing up) to now (text not showing up). I know desmos went through a UI update and was wondering if that played a part in the coding at all. Help would be appreicated!

Here’s the link to the page, dashboard, or activity:

And here are some screenshots or a video:
What it looks like after selecting the correct multiple choice:

What it should look like after selecting the correct multiple choice (however only shows up if you go to the next screen and then back again):

Thanks Ashley, this appears to be a bug related to text formatted columns. We’ll look into it.

In the interim, the cellContent sink does not appear to break with text formatted columns and changing your sinks from initialCellContent to cellContent might work for you.
