[Solved] Do something when a text input field is touched down

Questions about Thunkable
1

Is it possible to execute a command when a text input field is active.
I like to show some info for each text input field. I can NOT use the hint because the info is a long sentence.

2

No, this cannot be done.

@funhall - just to update this topic in case any new users are searching the community.

The text input now has event blocks to handle when the component gets and looses focus.

Hope that helps!

That is a nice feature. But I couldt get it to work…
Do you have a example app you can share???

@funhall what would you like it to do?

I tried to use this and I’m still experimenting with it. It seems that “onClick” should be used in the same way “onFocus/gotFocus” would be. Works well in Preview.
