Posted on by TM-07100853-0 12

Please see below, 
Any formula that evaluates to true is presented every time, even if the output variable has a value,
 
The happens regardless if the output variable is local or global, a sting or choice type.
 
In any scenario the below feature just appears to be broken.
 
Please can this be fixed?

    Hi,
     
    Please do tell me where someone answered this on another thread?
     
    I've tried searching for "Skip question formula" and I can't find anything remotely relevant.

    Make sure that the formula is properly checking for the existence or emptiness of the variable. For instance, try using a formula like:
     
    If(IsBlank(VariableName), false, true)
     
    Make sure the variable is properly initialized and accessible at the point where the question behavior is evaluated.
     
    Thanks.

    Try the following:
     
    IsBlank(YourVariable) || YourVariable = ""
     
    If(!HasRun && (IsBlank(YourVariable) || YourVariable = ""), // Execute code, then set HasRun to true)
