SET CUROSOR FIELD xxx OFFSET yyy doesn't work with filled field and/or without debugging

[GRI]

Hello ABAPers,

My requirement is to get cursor at the end of a field in my dynpro.
So I use (in my PBO):

SET CURSOR FIELD my_field OFFSET my_offset.

It works well when my field is empty : (for this example, i use 3 as offset (on a 50 field char length) :

But as soon as I filled with content this field, all the content became selected :
Even if a put more or less char than the offset.

I dont want the user to do an action for getting at the end of the field.
Fun fact, if I put a breakpoint anywhere, It works !

I don't understand why.
I have same behaviour in demo program DEMO_DYNPRO_SET_CURSOR.

Thanks for any help.

Try the SAP GUI options related to cursor.

Well, I was not sure. Finally, you answered by yourself so you can post your own answer, and accept your solution 😉

Or maybe I can post the screenshot in English.
