Which Umbraco version are you using?

15.4.1

Bug summary

When a text box has a max character limit set you no longer get a warning about how many characters are left as you approach that limit. Only an error if you pass it, and sometimes that error does not even show until you try to save/publish the document.

Specifics

In Umbraco 13 if you had a text box with a Maximum allowed characters limit set you would get red text telling you that there where X number of characters left as you approached that limit. In Umbraco 15 you don't get any messages until after you exceed the limit, and half the time this message only shows up AFTER you try to save/publish the document.

Steps to reproduce

Create Text Box property with a maximum character limit set instead of leaving the default.
Add new property to a document type
Create content node from document type with text box property
Start typing the the filed.

Expected result / actual result

Expected: When you approach the character limit you get a red error message counting down the characters left, like in Umbraco 13

Actual: No message is given until you exceed the limit
