PROBLEM: After typing a text, you press ESC and it deletes itself

This is an old problem I have, and after a long time using this software, I do not see a way to solve this.

1. You create a Text Box.
2. You write your text.
3. Press ESC as a fast way to get out of editing mode.

Boom! you've lost your text.

Is there any way to fix this or an alternative mode?
