Posted on by Sara Freitas 70

Hello!

 

Can I create an alert (as javascript) or another window inform the user? 

I'm creating an app and i need to alert the user for the conditions of values. 

 

Thanks!

    Hi

    You may use the combination of:
    - when the input text value or any entry is triggered, pop up to alert by using UpdateContext({X: true}) where the alert windows(another text box)'s Visible property is set as a context variable(e.g.:X).
    - when you wish to close the alert, you can set UpdateContext({X: false}) on any other action when OnSelect/OnChange, ... As you wish.

    Hope this helps.
