Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.45.62.1220
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Get your sim to practice typing while inspired. There must be an arts and crafts table in the household as well.
What happens when the bug occurs? After a while my sim exits out of the practicing typing command and goes to draw instead. (I would prefer to draw rather than type too.)
What do you expect to see? I expect my sim to keep typing until the action is complete.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. I updated to patch 1.45.62.1220
I have only seen this bug occur for my kid sims.

If your Child Sims suddenly interrupted their computer sessions to draw on the activity
table when Inspired, worry not, this should not happen after this update.
Fixed in Patch 1.77.131/1.44
If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

I have the same exact problem, my sim stops typing and goes to draw on activity table. Had to turn off free will anytime she needed to do that.

Can confirm the same, happens on practice typing and play keyboard commander. Often happens so fast I can't even cancel the self-queued drawing interaction. The kid in question has the aspiration focused on motor skill.

My child was only Happy but still kept queuing to go the drawing table. Only workaround was to remove all drawing tables from the lot.

The other workaround I've found is to leave the drawing/craft on the table. The child sim appears to be attracted only to empty tables. ;D
This seems to be the only way around this bug.
