I'm trying to figure out how to clear a text entry box when a user is re-visiting a layer they previously viewed and entered text into.
Even if I clear the variable the text entry box is tied to, the text entry box still retains the previously entered information. Anyone got a solution? I can't find any triggers to reset the state of the text entry box. I can provide an example file if this isn't clear.
Yup that was it. Can't reset the text entry box from within a slide, have to go out and then move people back to it. I kept searching for a trigger to reset the state. Of course, clearing the state through the slide settings clears the original text that is entered in the box as directions.

Is the slide set to reset to the initial state?
All the layers were contained within one slide, do you think I need to direct people off that slide so when they go back it will reset the state?
