You don't need any special coding or triggers.
When you insert a text-entry field, the program automatically includes "type your text here" in the field. You can edit that instruction text in the Storyline file.
The image below shows two text-entry fields. The first has the default instruction. The second has the edited instruction.
After someone enters text, the program updates the variable that stores the text. That is known as the variable's value. When the text-entry variable is given a value, the program will no longer show the instruction text.
Here's the User Guide article about data-entry (text-entry and numeric-entry) fields: Data-Entry Fields in Storyline 360 - E-Learning Heroes (articulate.com)
