Submit enabled while typing in Text Entry

Hi,

I am creating a quiz in the course. The directions are as follows:

  • The submit button should be disabled when the timeline starts of the slide.
  • The submit button should be enabled even while typing a single letter in the Text Entry box, but not necessary to click outside the Text Entry box.
  • The submit button should be disabled again when there will be no letter in the Text Entry box, doesn't matter the mouse pointer position.

I am aware that the Text Entry box is capturing the typed value only after clicking outside the box, but not while typing.

Do let me know for possible solutions. 

Appreciate your help in advance!

Hi Rahul,

Would something like this work? it uses the text entry losing focus, so the user still needs to click outside of the text box to make it work, but this includes them clicking on the submit button and the submit button acting in the preferred behavior (lets users submit when there is text in the text box, doesn't let them submit when it's empty)
