Text Entry variables not triggering
I'm very suspicious of using the table's loss of focus to fire the trigger. How would it get focus? The text entry boxes are on top of the table. Does the learner have to fill in the text entry boxes, then click the table so it has the focus, so it can lose it? Actually, I'm not even certain the table as a table can have the focus.
Check the attached sample for a method that works. Personally, if it were mine, I would write a trigger to show the Next button when each of the text_entry variables changes, if all the others are not blank. It takes more triggers, but is completely reliable, and also allows the learner to fill in the text entries in any order.
I skipped the intermediate step of setting SMART_goal to true, but you can still do that, if you need it somewhere else.
Yes, i agree. I was skeptical of using the table's focus as the trigger but it was a last resort when i thought i had gummed up the textentry focus triggers. I will just do what you are suggesting to set it to reveal after every box loses focus if the others are not blank
