bug: scrolling causes points to increment/decrement when grading quiz (in Chrome on Mac)

Hello, 

 

I noticed an uncanny and particularly annoying new bug when marking a Quiz in MS Forms:
After entering a score for a question in the Review page, if I scroll down immediately to the next question, the integer value I just entered decrements by one (or sometimes more)!

 

The bug occurs in Chrome on a Mac and is hard to pick up. -- It took me quite a while to work out what was miraculously causing the values to change 😉
It is due, I believe, to the form field listening to the scroll-wheel.

 

Needless to say, this bug is particularly dangerous for anybody using MS Forms for tests/exams since the entered grades for questions can change without one noticing!

 

Can the Microsoft Forms developers please fix this immediately by disabling scrolling on input:

Thanks,
Mark

      Hi amyfeen,

      No, I haven't had any response from Microsoft, and the problem hasn't been fixed in the meantime.

      It's quite an annoying bug 😉

      Yours,
      Mark
