Conditions on text variables
Mar 28, 2019
Hi, community!
I have created a course where the opening slide has a text variable for the user to enter their name. When they hit SUBMIT, they are taken to the next slide where their name appears and they crack on with the course.
I am hoping to get some help as to how I would set it up so that if the user tries to hit the SUBMIT button without typing in their name in the text entry field that a layer pops up saying something like "Awww, please tell us your name" and then they return to the main text variable slide.
I can't seem to figure out what triggers I would need to have set up and where in order for this to work.
I have attached images of my main slide and layer with the triggers I have currently set up (hoping that is of some use!)
Thanks in advance,
Karyn

Hey Karyn
quicker for me to do a sample file for you - see attached - hope that helps
Wendy, you star!! That is amazing, thank you! And so much simpler that me adding layers! I forget about the option of using the "hidden" state.
Variables at times seem so easy and then when I try to do them seem so complex!
That has worked perfectly, thank you again!

Yay Kaz - doing a happy dance for you...good luck with your project!
Here's another approach on this issue I just happened to have realized for a recent E-Learning Challenge.
I'm using layers, though.
