Workaround for "Retain Text" not working in responsive projects

The Retain Text feature of  Text Entry Boxes" does not work in responsive projects. I have tried to see if I can use a variable to record the entry made and then populate the text of the box when a user returns to it, but cannot find a way to do this. Is this possible? Otherwise I will need to come up with an alternative.

    Do you use Breakpoint views or Fluid Boxes for the project? Which exact version do you use, as mentioned under Help, About Captivate?

    Hi Lieve,

    Thanks for your quick reply. Sorry I should have said re version: Captivate 2019 1.5.1.499 (latest).

    I am using fluid boxes rather than break points.
