Hi! There is a delay in typing when using the sticky note feature when annotating assessments in Dropbox. In particular, once the sticky note is opened and I start typing, the cursor moves back to the beginning of the word or sentence a second later. It is a slight delay but frustrating as it often requires retyping each sticky note for each student (and there may be multiple sticky notes for each!). I have resorted to using more text comments; however, this is not always possible when annotating between lines, etc. Please advise any solution you might have. Thanks!
