Hello,
By default, Gantt saves the new value if you click on an empty space in the timeline or in the grid.
There is no built-in feature to save the data when the inline editor loses focus. But you can implement it by using Gantt API and Javascript.
The easiest way for that would be to get the input element in the onEditStart event handler and attach the blur event. To save the new value, you can use the gantt.ext.inlineEditors.save(); command.
The following snippet demonstrates how it works:
