dynamic text.
February 17, 2005 12:00 AM
I have a list of 7 dynamic text elements based on the input of the users. And they are shown or hidden by values of another pair of variables. Everything works. the only problem is that the client doesn't want spaces between the text elements if one or more aren't shown.Is it possible to display multiple dynamic text elements without getting ugly spaces between them. I know everything is based of x and y positions in Lectora. but just in case I missed something.

I found a way to get multiple entry fields in to one text block with a couple of actionsThe actions look like this on the result page where the text block is.First ActionOn: ShowAction: Modify VariableTarget: resultValue: VAR(entryfield01)Modification Type: Add to VariableTo get a space between the first and second entryfield I made an action like thisOn: ShowAction: Modify VariableTarget: resultValue: nModification Type: Add to VariableSecond ActionOn: ShowAction: Modify VariableTarget: resultValue: VAR(entryfield02)Modification Type: Add to VariableAnd to get the result, I use Action number four, that looks like thisOn: ShowAction: Change ContentsTarget: textblockNew Contents: resultEverything works, but isn’t it possible to use one action instead to get all the data to the result variable? so basically use multiple VAR's in the value field for example action that looks like this.On: ShowAction: Modify VariableTarget: resultValue: VAR(entryfield01)& &VAR(entryfield02)Modification Type: Set Variable ContentsEdited By: Alphauser on 38407.3679050926
