Displaying a text object on loading an application

Hi,

I need to display a text object named (First text object) with some text in it, at the time when the application is loaded first.

It should appear only once, whenever i load the app.

Unless and until i press some other object it shouldn't hide.

If i click on other object (i.e.,) it can be any other object , (First text object) should disappear, it should come only after i load the app again..

Help me to find this out..

There is no simple way that I know of to hide the text object when 'any object' is pressed. You would need to add an action to every object, and not all objects take actions,

This is what I propose that should be very close to what you are after:

  • Create a text box with the required text, and use a conditional show with a variable (say vShowInit)
    • =vShowInit
  • In the load script, add the line:
    • Set vShowInit = 1;
  • Add an action to the above text box to set the variable vShowInit to 0.

The user will have to click on the text box to hide it, rather than 'any object'.

The easiest way may be to use the Tools->Alerts.. or Tools->Alert wizard... where you specify a massage and display conditions. Under Settings->Document properties you can change the look and feel of the alert messages somewhat (I am no fan of the default style).
