Can anyone explain the different between On Focus Lost and On Success action for a text entry box and why you would want to have a different action for these two settings which seem, at least on the surface, to perform practically the same function?
There is a difference.
On Success for the text entry box means that the text they entered was validated as correct. On Failure means the text was not correct.
On Focus Lost allows you to trigger an action if the user types something into the text box and then does not click the Submit button.
For example, you might want a caption to appear telling them they need to click the Submit button to have their text evaluated or validated. So you add a caption to the stage, turn off Visibility, then set On Focus Lost to SHOW that caption and give appropriate instruction.
