How to fix the cursor movement with onChange event of flutter?

Question

The cursor is continuously moving to front while typing data in text field. Before it is not there but once I wired onChange event, it is happening.

My issue:

My code:

 Padding(
        padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
        child: TextField(
          controller: descriptionController,
          decoration: InputDecoration(
            labelText: 'Any Details',
            hintText: "e.g. Whatever details you want to save",
            labelStyle: textStyle,
            border: OutlineInputBorder(
                borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(5.0)
            ),
          ),
          keyboardType: TextInputType.text,
          onChanged: (String string){
            setState(() {
              if (string != null){
                coinOrder.description = string;
              }


            });
          },
        ),
      )

It seems this issue is fixed partially, now after setting the project level sdk, this error is not coming. But, android debug bridge is not working. Can you see this once https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyDkHQeQVyA — uday, May 07 '21 at 09:54

You can use one string variable to store value so this issue will not accrue. see the below code.

String? details;
Padding(
        padding: const EdgeInsets.all(8.0),
        child: TextField(
          controller: descriptionController,
          decoration: InputDecoration(
            labelText: 'Any Details',
            hintText: "e.g. Whatever details you want to save",
            labelStyle: textStyle,
            border: OutlineInputBorder(
                borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(5.0)
            ),
          ),
          keyboardType: TextInputType.text,
          onChanged: (String string){
            setState(() {
              if (string != null){
                //coinOrder.description = string;
                details=string;
              }


            });
          },
        ),
      )
