Calculate in Text Field properties doesn't save or accept any calculaiton

When I try to add calculation to the field, it doesn't save it, but switches back to "Value is not calculated". 

I tried quite simple script, but also the same issue with sum or simplified field notation.

No dublicate fields, and somehow with the first 2 fields everything was fine.

This sounds like a form logic or field state issue often happens when the field type or permissions block calculations. It’s one of those small setup details that can break expected behavior, kind of like how the traffic rider game depends on smooth input handling to work right.

Does this happen for any field? Try creating a new field... and let us know.

Access the field properties directly from the field (right-click > properties, or double click the field) instead of from the field panel.

How have you selected the field?
