Question

Multiple TEBs on one slide, no validation, publish to HTML5

Hi,

 

I'm using Captivate 2019. I want to have 2 Text Entry Boxes on one slide, and I will publish to HTML5. There is no validation required. Text entered is assigned a variable for recall on another slide.

 

Trouble is I can only enter text in one box. The other box isn't active. 

 

Am I trying to do something that can't be done? It works fine in preview slides, but when I preview in HTML5, it doesn't work.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

    This should be possible.  Are both TEBs starting at the same point on the timeline?

     

    Can you show us how your timeline looks?  (Insert the graphic, don't attach it.)

    Hi Rod, thanks for replying.

     

    As the slide plays, the text 2 box, which is on the right hand side of the slide, has the default text highlighted. I wanted the text 1 box to be the first to have text entered, so I wanted that default text to be highlighted. 

     

    Also, the tab function doesn't work. I wanted to have text one as the first tab, and text two the second tab.

    Cheers!

    Try to switch the stack order of theTEBs. You can do that by dragging in the Timeline panel.
