Hello Community,

I'm just wondering if there is a way of making the text entry default font colour different to when a users type on each box? 

From the below image, I deliberately put those Zeros in as a guide for students. However, when they enter the supposed answer, the colour remains the same. Is there a way of fading the colour as a guide but when they enter an answer, it brings out a different colour?
Text entry boxes

Thanks,

Ibukun

Here's a tutorial with two ideas:

  • Duplicate text entry boxes and tie them to the same variable. This lets you change the highlight and text color
  • Create a highlight box under text variable (my preferred method and easier)

Watch tutorial.

If you want to learn more about text entry variables check out these videos on the training site.
