I'm trying to run a script every single time a value is changed in a numeric entry field. I need this templatized and I will be running this script on all sorts of components like checkboxes and multi state buttons etc...
The issue: When making the template I would press play and test out the "property change" script by changing the numeric value, and that would write to a table once like intended (seen below). This worked great as you can see, but as soon as I put a instance of that template anywhere and change the value from the instance it logs twice. Is there a solution for this because it basically makes the propertyChange event handler useless in any template instances.

Does that query change the value in the field you are running the script on?
if so that would cause a double run, due to the value changing after the query runs?
I suppose I can just use a "prevVal" custom property on the window and maybe use a KeyPressed for the "enterkey" and check there and hope that only runs once? I feel like this is not the right way to do it though.
No it just basically logs the previous value and the new value in a table and what time for a custom audit log which is why I really don't want it to show twice.
You can compare event.newValue and event.oldValue
if event.propertyName == 'value' and event.oldValue <> event.newValue:
That won't work unfortunatly. The new and old value are different in both times it logs as seen in the picture :/.
