Let user modify a variable

Allowing the learner to edit their name means adding another text entry field where they can retype it. Each text entry field in Storyline is linked to a separate text variable. So, when the learner types a new name in the second field, it updates a different variable — not the original one.

In the example I provided, the original userName variable captures the name entered on the first slide. On the next slide, I added a second text entry field connected to a new variable called updatedName. When the learner clicks the Update button, a trigger sets userName to the value of updatedName, effectively updating the original name.
