Issue/Introduction

When adding multiple Large String fields to Project Properties in MUX and editing it quickly, the values are not being saved and being reverted back to previous values

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Add a number of custom Large String attributes in Clarity to the Project Properties in Blueprint
2. Open a project
3. Edit the fields quickly one after the other (use paste of text)
   • Enter new text
   • Or
   • Edit existing field with additional text
   • Or
   • Delete all the text in the large field

Expected Results: All the updates to be saved accordingly

Actual Results: The screen reverts back to previous values and erases the changes in the fields by flickering

Note: This behaviour is also observed with regular strings that are having maximum size of 2000 characters.
