As each letter of the tag name is typed, the totalizer tool validates the tag name in the Name text box or the SourceTag text box. On systems with large point counts, this can consume a lot of time. If character-by-character validation is turned off (unchecked), then the tag validation occurs after the cursor leaves the text box.
