slide.children is an array of all top level objects. However, it’s not easy to check if an object is a text entry. You may need to use some script like this:

prez.slide.children.forEach(function(slideObject) {
  if ($(slideObject.node).find('input').length) {
    // this slideObject contains input DOM element
    // it can be a text entry object, a fill in blanks question... 
  }
})

Dear Toan,
would it be an option to group the inputs (“Textinputs”) and use the group to loop through all relevant objects? This code seems to work so far:

prez.object("TextInputs").children.forEach(function(child){
  $($(child.node).find('input')[0]).focusout(function() { 
	child.submit();
  });
});

The doubled jquery is a little weird.
Best wishes

Yes, you can group your text inputs like that.
child is already a text input object in this case so you can use $(child.node).find('input').focusout(...)
