Screen Capture & Data Entry Fields in Storyline
Jul 01, 2013
Hi
I am building an innteractive software simulation using the screen capture functionality and the view/try modes.
I have a number of data entry fields (which relate to search functions in the software) where users are asked to type in keywords and use the search buttons to invoke the searches, however I cannot work out how to make storyline recognise that the user has finished entering the text so that they can move onto selecting the search button.
I know that you can make storyline recognise that the data entry text has been entered by hitting the return key but as the return key is universally recognised as the functionality to search I don't want (unless I have to) use this as it may be confusing.
Can you help?
Can this be done?

Hi Pam
Attached is a very short screen capture where I've edited the text entry screen of the Try mode:
Just a little editing of the caption fields & slide titles makes it look better.
Hope this helps you get the effect you want

Great thanks

Hi Helen - I have tried your solution but it doesn't seem to work, so I wanted to check the story file. I tried downloading your attachment but it also isn't working. Do you still have it?
Hello Debbie!
Helen may no longer be subscribed to this thread.
I was able to download the file. I have reattached it here.
