Are you saying that you want to hide and show a text box (lets say TextBox1) by clicking on itself?? I guess you can hide it, but once hidden, you won't be able to use it to show TextBox1.

Let me know if this is not what you are looking for?

Hi,

Hide and Show of an Object can be achieved by creating and handling Variables.

Create Two Text Boxes and Single Variable.

Use the Action and Layout condition on The textboxes to control the Hide/ Show feature.

Hope it helps !

Cheers !

Create

2 text objects

1 variable with value 0

in one text object->Properties->Actions->Action Type(External)->Set variable->Value:1

In another text object->Properties->Layout->show->Conditional->Variable=1

so on click of object 1, object 2 will be visible

in order to hide it again

2 methods:

method 1:

on top of object 2 we can create another text object->Properties->

Properties->Actions->Action Type(External)->Set variable->Value:0

object 1->Properties->Layout->Layer->top

Method 2:

in object 1->Properties->Actions->Action Type(External)->Set variable->if(Variable=1,1,0)

so once we click on object1->object 2 will open and once again if we click on object 1->object 2 will be hidden
