Data Entry Object
Jul 24, 2014
I am creating a simulation where I want the user to enter a value in a field. Once the user enters the value in the field, I want the simulation to automatically move to the next slide layer. I inserted a “Text Entry” object and created a variable for the text I want the user to enter. I then created a trigger to show the next layer when the user enters the text variable, but it isn’t working when I preview the slide. Any help would be appreciated.

HI Kerri
could you provide your Storyline file?
Did you set your trigger based off of the Var change? did you hit enter after entering the number could be a range of things
This is what the trigger is set as:
Sorry Joanna, the file has client sensitive information, so I am not able to post it.
the data entry control must lose focus for the variable value to change, this is a limitation of storyline
Thank you everyone. I found a workaround by combining two steps on the same slide. I have the user enter the information in the field and then click a button to continue.
