The Text Interaction Behaviour

The Text Interaction behaviour can be applied to an object to allow the object to contain text and / or require the user to enter or edit text.

Text Interaction Behaviour Properties

Clicking Edit will open the Edit Start Text form. Use the text editor to define the text that the object should contain when the page is first loaded.

Retain previous

Checking the Retain previous checkbox will load the text that was in the most recent object with a Text Interaction behaviour attached. This will effectively allow you to persist the text from a previous interaction over more than one screen.
