Hi
I want to start a workflow when a button within a repeating group is pressed (not clicked).
Any ideas how i could do that?
thanks

Hello @pascualor
I found a method but you should use a free plugin. (BTW thanks to @lottemint.md )
The “Elements in view” plugin checks the appearance of an element. Whatever element you want to control you need to give it an HTML Id.
I added a hidden and transparent “shape” to the Repeating Group and left the HTML Id blank.
Then set up the condition. If the text is pressed, “shape” appears and its ID is set as 1.
Although it worked the way I wanted, but it was no different from “clicking”. So I made a small change in the workflow.
Set up a custom event and schedule it to run in 2 seconds.
In this case if the button is pressed for two seconds, I send a parameter to the page.
I hope its works for you!
It would be nice to hear different ideas!
Best,
Eren

This plugin is not a good option for this case.
As a solution, please try the following plugin:

I’ve updated the plugin since my suggested method worked glitchy. There is a new element Cell | Beta that works much better and smoothly.

Hey @lottemint.md Cell plugin is very capable, thanks for that!
What is the difference between the two elements? How will we determine which one and when we should choose? Or should we just use Beta from now on?

Hey!
Thanks!
The new element is an enhancement of the previous one.
I created a new element since the new update may change the workflows’ behavior that uses that plugin. I mean, to avoid surprises.
I recommend using the new one.
