Has anyone figured out a way to string together multiple controls/variables to get to an OnDeselect style action? I'm almost able to do what my app needs via the onselect and onchange, but it would be better if I could figure this one out. The pattern is that if someone clicks in the text input field and then clicks out of it without changing anything, i need to fire an action - likely set() but havent confirmed for sure since i can't do it. Any ideas? I'm stumped...
Related, I even strung together ways to change the text input without triggering the onselect or onchange, but that isn't the pattern I was aiming at.
Can you give an example to explain

without trying to explain the full scenario, the closest example i can come up with is data validation in real time. if i have a field that requires a specific format, it may be required, or it may need to be a certain length, i want to alert someone immediately as they exit the field that they need to make a change. I can handle most of the scenarios using on change, but if someone clicks on the field and doesn't enter something, then i can't trigger anything alerting them that they needed to. Does that make sense?
I tried using a timer that started onselect and then constantly checked if the field was blank, but it was either triggering the alert too early or too late.
We can use these processes:
On OnSelect of each of the Fields (TextBox) set a Variable example:
thanks for trying, but that isn't it. there is no submit button in the scenario. i need it to trigger as soon as someone leaves the field, not on taking another action, like clicking a submit button.
I have some test on it:
1. Insert a Label1 and put some text in it example "You have not filled Some Textboxes"
2. Set a variable OnVisible of the screen:
