How to setText of an auto calculated field

[klaurtar]

I am working on a project to fill out a government form. One of the text fields is an auto calculated field. It multiplies one column by a percentage and calculates itself. All of my attempts to manipulate it have failed. However when I load the page in an iframe and then click another field, it auto calculates. I am wondering is there a way to cause these fields to update programmatically?

The field all the way on the right (0.00) is the one in question:

Hi Klaurtar, did you get a workaround for the issue? I am facing the same challenge with calculated fields.

Hey! No I did not figure it out. However, I have not put much effort in to it yet. Maybe we could do a virtual call and put our heads together to figure it out!
