Has your issue been reported?

• [X] I have searched the existing issues and confirm it has not been reported.
• [X] I give permission for members of the FlutterFlow team to access and test my project for the sole purpose of investigating this issue.

Current Behavior

Bug Description:

When filling in the input and using the "submit" type, the autofocus on the input does not work correctly. I noticed that autofocus only works the first time the page is accessed. After filling out and sending the message (submit) in the input, the field does not return to focus automatically. For it to be in focus again, you need to manually click on the input.

Project Context:

I'm developing a chat project, where it's unfeasible to have to manually click on the input every time to send a new message to the other chat user

Expected Behavior

Expected behavior:

After sending the message, the input should return to focus automatically, allowing the user to continue typing new messages without having to manually click on the input field.

This is the expected behavior, when sending the message, the input remains in focus so that new messages can be typed and sent. This is working because I had to export the code and adjust it manually. But I saw several people in the community with the same problem, but many don't understand code like I do. You could even let us edit the code from within Flutterflow, I think it would help a lot, just an ok idea ;)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a page in Flutterflow and add a widget of type inputText, configure and leave autofocus activated and select SEND mode in the subimit type.
2. Create an action so that this message is sent to an API, or even a conversational chat
3. Fill in the input with a message.
4. Send the message using the "submit" type.
5. Note that the input does not return to focus automatically.
