Context Variable for Visibility not working

I am trying to control visibility with a context variable. It doesn't seem to be working when I add the variable to the variable's visibility, it disappears and will not show even though the value is set to true.

What it should look like

Creating the context variable

using the variable

Changing variable if condition is met.

I figured it out. The variable was empty so i ran the app and the variable populated with true, and it started working.

Ok, so he is my thought process. I have several sections that I would like to have the visibility set to hidden, but if a condition is met set the visibility to show and it will stay shown for the rest of the form's life.

When I created the context variable, I set it to true for testing purposes. So, when the context variable is true it should be showing and when it is false it should be hidden.

The first photo I sent is what it looks like before a context variable is made and just has true in the visibility section.

The changing will be done in the switch statement, going from false to true. And stay true

Hi,

its very hard to see what you pasted in, so I am going to ask

I see in the OnVisible, you set it to true, but after that, when it goes invisible, how does it come back?

So if you stay on the screen, and you do something that sets it to false, what sets it back?

That's what I think is missing.

Please mark if this is the answer.
