Hello,

I have some range sliders and some number inputs. I want to delay them triggering a callback until the user stops changing their values, rather than the first click immediately triggering a callback. Is this possible?

I’ve seen that you can set `debounce = True` but this isn’t the solution that I’m after.

Many thanks.

hi,  
Maybe you can consider adding an update button as an input to trigger the callback.
