weird text tool issue?

When I try and use the text tool I click on somewhere on the map.  But, unless I hold down the mouse button and type simultaneously the text box instantly disappears.  I haven't used the text tool all that often in the past, but that doesn't seem right, does it?  That seems quite difficult to use since you have to start typing with one hand while holding the mouse.  Is there something I'm doing wrong, or is this a glitch?   Thanks!

This isnt happening for me, I just tested it. Is it a browser issue, or extension issue?

Hi Nicholas, Sorry to hear that you're having issues with the text tool. Could you please carefully work through these steps of our guide to  Solving Technical Issues ? Step 1: Make sure to use the right browser Please check if these issues persist when using both Chrome  and  Firefox. Step 2: Ensure that there are no extensions/addons interfering with Roll20 Please disable  all  add-ons/extensions  and  anti-virus programs. Step 3: Clear your cache If none of the above succeeds, please thoroughly work through  Step 4 .  (Don't forget the complete Console Log!) Thank you!
Thank you guys for confirming.  I just tried it on Google Chrome on a different computer, and it worked just fine.  So, there's got to be something up with either my browser, antivirus, or mouse software.  I will go through on my end and troubleshoot.  Thank you for your help.
