set a variable v1 to 0 (Ctrl+Alt+V)

for the first button 1 ,

right click go to properties --> Actions tab -->add action Type --> External --> Set Variable --> Variable =v1 and Value =1.

Then go to Layout tab and add condition under show : v1<>2

similarly for button 2,

right click go to properties --> Actions tab -->add action Type --> External --> Set Variable --> Variable =v1 and Value =2.

Then go to Layout tab and add condition under show : v1<>1

also create a third button called ' show both buttons' and

right click go to properties --> Actions tab -->add action Type --> External --> Set Variable --> Variable =v1 and Value =0.

if i click one button second should be hide

if i click second button first button should be hide

if i click one buttton second button should be appiear

if i click second button first button should be appiear

Can you please make up your mind? It's simply not possible for a button the be hidden and visible at the same time.

Hi, Rohith.

If I understand you correctly, I think show/hide functionality would meet your requirements. If you follow the link below, Steve Dark has some useful code in a blog for developing buttons.
