Highlighting text

Need help
1

Hello Bubblers,

A little help needed from the experts. I will explain what I need and if any one has a solution then please let me know. The simpler the better lol.

I have two advanced rich text boxes, A and B. I would like the text in ART box B to be highlighted by any text that appears in ART box A. If the results need to go into an ART box c then thats fine.

The text would be inputted by the user (not pre-set) and at the press of the button once both text fields have been filled in the highlighter does its job (highlighting the same text in box a as appears in box b etc).

Has any one got any starter ideas that could help me on my way.

Much appreciated if you can help.

Stephen

So youre trying to highlight B when theres text in A, just go the conditionals in B and do When A’s value is not empty highlight B.

Thanks for your reply - its not the whole text box I need to be highlighted - its individualwords, so any word that appears in text box a and b is highlighted in a. Impossible in bubble!

I have a weird solution for you i just thought of (idk if it will work)
use a repeating group for this make it one single row with multiple colums and on the text make it bold, if you can figure out how to display one letter per text box it will work, there are operators in bubble that do so.

You can use BBCode for that. More generally you can use BBCode in any text field within Bubble.

If you want to highlght something that’s from an input field, then use :find & replace like so

EDIT : there is a slight delay when using a normal input field. There is a plugin that allow you to get instand access to the field value while it is being typed. I don’t remember the plugin name at the moment, but you should be abble to find it easily.
