Last time I saw this was because of a property change script that was writing things in the numeric field. Anything of the sort on your component ? ---

Then it's time to show more details about what you're doing. edit: wait, is the binding bidirectional ? ---

turning off reject updates during edits seems to stop it, its like it cant update fast enough and writes the value back. have i done something wrong here?
