Hello,

I have a Mathematica code with Manipulate [] and a number of inputs. At the end I have ContinuousAction->False, but my code keeps repeating the evaluation, even when the inputs are not changing. Ideally, I would like it to evaluate once when an input is changed. But now it goes like crazy simulating the same thing over and over again.

Any advice would be great. Thanks!

says
"is an option for Manipulate, Slider and related functions which specifies whether action should be taken continuously while controls are being moved."
which, if I am interpreting correctly, seems only relevant if you are moving a slider back and forth constantly.

So do you have something else in your code that is being re-evaluated again and again?
