The space bar stops working in SASĀ® Visual Analytics text fields


When you edit text fields in SAS Visual Analytics reports, such as the text object or object titles, the space bar might stop responding when pressed. The arrow, Home, and End keys might also stop responding.

This issue can happen if your mouse contains a scroll wheel and you use it to scroll on a graph (to zoom in on a bar chart) or scroll up and down a list or report.

This issue occurs only in SAS Visual Analytics 8.3 and 8.4.

To work around the issue, log out of SAS Visual Analytics and then log back in. Also, avoid using a scroll wheel if possible.
