Hello together,
is there a possibility to create a textbox with the same variable, for example on 2 pages with the same filled content with the following requirement:
Example:
Page 1 - fillable Textbox 1 with Textvariable "Name" (this box should be fillable like a normal box)
Page 2 - a textbox with the filled content of Textbox 1 of Page 1 (not be able to edit on Page 2, just on Page 1)
I know if i use the same variable-name in a second text-box, there will be the same content shown filled from box 1. But i just need a non editable "copy" of the filled content. If i select a "write protection" in my second box, the protection will transmit to the first box, i think because the instruction goes to the variable-name and not to the box.
Pictures:
top field: editable
bottom field: with filled content of top field, not editable
iĀ“m looking forward to your feedback.
kind regards,
Martin

You might need to look at a small script that 'copies' the content of Field1 and sets it as a protected value of Field2.

By "variable" it seems you really mean the Field Name. Variables and field names are different things.
Fields with the same name are essentially the same field. In fact, the field on the page is just the UI for the field, not the field itself, and it is called a widget. The value related properties of a field are the same for all widgets, since they are the same field. However, widgets can have different appearance related properties, such as background color.
Now, the readonly property is value related, so it is the same for all widgets of a field. So, so satisify your requirement, two fields are needed. One for entereing data and one that is a readonly copy.
