Hi Marcella,
Again, variables are going to help you.
- Set up a variable, e.g., clickInBox of Number type.
- Set up a trigger on your text box. so that when the learner clicks into the textbox, have the variable update.
- On the next button,
- change the state to hidden
- add a trigger so that it changes states when the variable changes to a certain number (a add a condition) so that is runs when the variable reaches a certain number.
There may need to be some error captures but it should work.
Thanks Michael! That way had worked with drag and drop but when I tried it
with text entry, it did not work. I must be doing something wrong.
I set up a variable FillBox with an initial number at 0.
I then set it up to change to 1 when user clicked the text entry box.
I had disabled the next button (upon timeline starting) and then made it
normal when the count reached 1
