  • 1.  Visual Logic or Scripting to change text object Y position

    Posted 10-16-2023 16:46

    I have 2 text objects, one above the other. I want the top text object to move down slightly if the there is nothing typed in the 2nd text object. 

    I know this should be very simple. But no matter what I try in Visual Logic, the top text object just moves to a set position in the center of the screen, whether there is text typed in the 2nd object or not.

    I am using XPression v6.5.

    Thanks in advance.

    What logic blocks are you using?

    The top text object is called TITLE; the one below is called SUBTITLE.

    I have used [SUBTITLE length]   [Smaller Than 1]   [TITLE Position.Y]  .... then tried to ADD or OFFSET the Value
