Hi there,

I’m working on a responsive project with Text Entry Boxes and User Input.

My problem is, that whenever the user goes to the next slide and returns to the previous slide (the slide with the TEB), the value of the variable of the TEB is empty. This is problematic because I want to use the input of the TEB later on. I tried using the “retain text” button for the TEB-settings but it makes no difference.

Do you have any ideas?

Kind regards
Nina

You already got an answer from Rod Ward in the Adobe forums (here you need to wait a lot longer, moderation is restricted to 2-4 times a week, not 24/7). Best way is to use the CpExtra widget by InfoSemantics, which is not for free but more than worthwhile the price. Have a workaround as well, but too cumbersome in most situations.
