- Step 1: Create a (hidden, if you wish) text field called "Counter".

- Step 2: Apply the following code as the MouseUp event of the button field:

var counter = Number(this.getField("Counter").valueAsString);
if (counter<7) this.getField("Counter").value = counter+1;

 

- Step 3: Apply the following code as the custom Calculation script of "Text2":

event.value = Number(this.getField("Counter").valueAsString) + "/7 points used";

 

- Step 4: Apply the following code as the custom Calculation script of "Text3":

event.value = Number(this.getField("Counter").valueAsString)*20;

 

That's all there is to it.

You've asked this multiple times, but your descriptions are not clear.

- What should happen when it reaches "7/7"?

- You say that text3 should add different values as the button is clicked, but add them to what, exactly? Or do you just mean that it needs to be 20, 40, 60, etc.?

 

Also, have you tried writing this code yourself?

When it reaches 7/7 thats it. When text2 show 1/7 text 3 need to show 20(it would be better if it actualy calculated not just show text) I tried to figure out code but i'm new and I think the code I need is far beyond my level.
