Hi Matthew,
I need a flag set from outside - a variable that either contains text or is blank when the data are read in and out. Then the logic will either select or deselect a checkbox. Checking if the variable is not blank works, but if the variable is required to be empty, blank, null or effectively contain nothing then Storyline does not understand the contents/lack of content. It's as if 'blank' is not the same in Storyline as an empty text variable. We have verified that the variable is being read in correctly but not being interpreted correctly.
