Cursor Line in Text Input Box
I've looked all through previous posts to find the answer to this, but I'm just at a loss.
I have a course with a button that presents a layer with text input boxes for name and company name in order to generate a certificate. When originally presented with the layer, there are no cursor lines when clicking in the boxes. However, once I generate the certificate and navigate back to the layer again, there are cursor lines! If I just close the box and navigate to the layer without generating a certificate, the lines still do not show. I have tried moving the boxes to the end of the timeline with no luck. I've attached a screenshot of the layer I would like cursor lines to appear the first time when visited. I'm trying to figure out why they would appear after navigating away from the page entirely and how I could incorporate this! Ideas?
Hi April!
Thanks so much for reaching out! This is a known bug where the text entry field does not have the default focus/cursor. We'll be sure to keep you in the loop with any updates!
A workaround you can try in the meantime is to:
Right-click on the text entry in your timeline, then select the Send to Back option.
Attached you'll find a sample .story file so you can preview this on your end!
Here's a quick Peek where I talk through this workaround for you!
Feel free to share your file in this thread so we can take a closer look. I'm curious to hear what others in the community have attempted as a workaround!
Having tried this workaround, although after Send to Back now displays the cursor, there is another problem - whatever the user is typing no longer displays?
