Strange error in simple if statement

[Pat_Wickramage]

I am banging my head around a tiny equation which gives 'blue underline' error.

The equation is;

If(IsEmpty(Value2.Text), DisplayMode.Disabled, DisplayMode.Edit)

same as;

If(IsEmpty(Value2), DisplayMode.Disabled, DisplayMode.Edit)

This gives me "Expecting a true or false value. The current value may cause unexpected behavior"

Plz tell me I am not going mad.

Hi Pat_Wickramage

Perhaps try "IsBlank" instead of "IsEmpty"? 

Else i cannot spot anything either..

Tried it already. Still the same error.

This is fustrating 🙂

Hi Pat_Wickramage

I think the issue lies within 'Value2' rather than the formula. 

Just tested this myself with a textinput field that is called 'Value2' and both statements you listed work without error. 

What exactly does Value2 refer to - a variable?

In that case you may need to change the statement to say  If (Variable2 = "", DisplayMode.Disabled, DisplayMode.Edit)

Figured it out.

The equations I have been trying to put in was under 'visible'.

Instead of that it should go to 'displaymode'.

Now its working.
