Input Text Boxes
Jul 16, 2018
In Storyline 3, I wish to have 2 text boxes that the user will enter specific text into. I want them to enter into the first box (specific username), then move to the second (specific password) and enter the information. Then I want them to click on a hotspot and if both text entries are correct, then they move to the next slide. I inserted text boxes for both and then a regular hotspot on the button I want them to click. HELP!

Hi Betti
if you can share the story file or even just that slide someone can help you. Just use the grey 'add attachment' button at the bottom of the post to upload it.
Okay, attached is the slide along with a blank. So the end results after entering in the correct information and clicking on the login button would be to navigate to the next slide. I've tried several variables but can't seem to get it to work.
Hi Betti
I've updated your triggers so take a look and see if it works how you want it to. I've used SL360 so if you can't open the file let me know and I'll screenshot the variables and triggers.
Wendy thank you!!! I can't believe I missed this! I've done this before with another project. Works like a charm.
Now I have another dilemma...I'm trying to create a text box that only appears when you hover over the spot. I've set the state to Hidden and set the trigger to (I thought) do this. Can you see where I may have gone wrong??
Thanks!!
Hi Betti
you're asking SL to change the state of something that is hidden to normal when the user hovers over it but the object is hidden so SL can't see it. See the update to your file - I've added a hotspot to the area 'Account Summary' so that when the mouse hovers near there text box displays. If you want the text box to stay on, remove the tick in the trigger 'restore on mouse leave'
