What do you want to sum with what? In any case you can often use calculations directly by calling the field you want to use. When you need complex calculations you can use several custom states
Hi there, @frk.jenssen… because I helped you in your other thread, I understand the issue here. The bottom line is you can’t use a text element in a calculation like that. However, if you replace the text element with an input element (which you can disable, essentially making it like a text element), you would be able to use the input element in a subsequent calculation. Make sense?
Yeah, that make sense. Thank you again! I now experience a problem with just the minus (subtract).
I can’t find out what to put behind the last value. I do not find sum so then I am a bit stuck.
I have tried many of those logical suggestions but it still wouldn’t work.
And sorry if this also is very basic. I am quite new to bubble and haven’t gotten the full understanding of those “insert dynamic data” -thing. And it seems like no basic tutorials are showing that. Ore in the forum for that sake so I hope this also can be usefull for others
You shouldn’t have to put anything after the second field… the field should accept the expression as the first input minus the second input. Also, if it was me, I would put the formula in the Initial content field (instead of the Placeholder field), and I would check the box to disable the input (if you haven’t done that already).
Omg I feel so dumb now. But it still now working. I think I manage to do everything you said. I also got a little bit futher by that it now accept the expression with those two inputs. But it still dont show up right.
I´ll add som screenshots of my settings + the actual result
And for those others that stumble upon this thread. What I am trying to accomplish is to have the first input (currency) - the sum of the value/sum of that box on the right.
Translated from Norwegian:
First Box : Income
Second box: Tax%. Box on the right: Sum of Income - tax (how much a user pays in tax)
Then the last box below should be a sum of Income - paid tax
