How to remove an initial value (0) from a "Numeric Entry" field
Hi All,
A quick update to let you know we've released a fix for this issue where Numeric-entry fields displayed default values of zero after renaming their underlying variables. They should remain blank until learners enter values. You'll find that fix available in the latest update Storyline 360, build 3.28.18944.0.
To install the update, launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button for Storyline - you'll find more details here.
Please let us know if you have any questions, either here or by reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.
Hello. I just ran into this with the latest update of 360, however I was doing this the wrong way, just in case anyone else runs into this.
I made my new vars and assigned them to the num entry field, this does not work, you still get the initial 0 in that field.
NOTE 1: It looks like you have to "rename" vs. "replacing" the var with a new one.
NOTE 2: I need to check if the user entered a value upon Submit, upon checking for 0 the Default, even though it is not showed initially, SL does not see it as zero so I cannot check for init value which is odd. I also tried between -1 a 1 and that did not work.
