That was perfectly clear Tony and I fully understand your approach. I use view templates myself in my own wiki, quite extensively, and your solution constitutes a form of "reverse transclusion". I use the more traditional approach in that, at the most basic level, I write in tiddler "One" that has the edit-text widget to update a tiddler "Two" (or any of its fields of indices, for that matter), where "Two" is out of view (closed, folded etc.) and where "Two" is *not* the current tiddler. Both approaches are similar in that we don't type into the current tiddler. This is the quite obvious prerequisite. Once that's out of the way (the totally avoidable loss of focus, which I'm not talking about here), the refresh mechanism remains the sole issue and, I believe, the root of the problem I'm reporting. Again, the problem is barely perceptible on desktops/laptops but is an issue on mobile. Please consider this: please create a new Tiddler titled "Typing" and paste this bare bones edit-text widget into its body (no need to create any additional tiddlers): <$edit-text tiddler="test"/> Now open the wiki on mobile, close or fold all tiddlers and navigate to the tiddler "Typing". Now, try typing anything. The lag is still there. No dependencies, no complex code. The lag persists. In my humble view, there is no fix other than an upgrade of the refresh mechanism itself, which is part of the core and something that Jeremy is overseeing.
