Using conditional logic, I am going to change the text that appears on this image of an academic seal
based on the GPA information which is found within the data.
To create a Conditional Text Block, I select the "Conditional Text" button.
And draw a text block on the form.
The "Condition" window will appear and I can start defining the text that I would like to conditionally
appear by clicking "Add".
I'm going to start by choosing the field. In this case it is going to be the GPA.
and I'm going to say ">" greater than
and I'd like this condition to be based off of a GPA of "3.8"
And as you can see down here,
it will show you a preview of the condition you have just defined.
I am going to click "OK".
Now you can see
my condition has been defined and I'm going to define the text that will along with it.
First I will select my font
and the point size
and based on his condition I'd like to text to say
"Summa *** Laude"
Select "OK".
Now to create another condition, I need to select the last condition that was created.
Select "Add" again.
I am going to select the "GPA" field.
the ">" greater than function.
and this time I am going to choose "3.6 as the defining GPA
Click "OK".
Select the "Text" button again.
Choose my font
point size
for this condition I'd like the text to say
"Magna *** Laude"
Select "OK".
Repeat the same steps, so select "ADD"
Choose "GPA"
">" Greater Than
This condition will be based off of a "3.2" GPA.
Select "Text" button.
Choose my Font and Point Size.
Based on this condition my text will say "*** Laude".
Now I'm going to create one last conditional statement. This one is going to be defined as
a "Final Else" Condition
When I check this box right here, it disables all the functions
Basically what this is doing, is saying
if none of these other conditions are found true
I am going to have an "Else" condition that will pop up Generic text.
So I am going to define the generic text that will appear
when none of these other conditions are found to be "True".
Choose my Font and Point Size.
and I am going to type "Honors".
Now, when I select "OK" you will see the conditional text block appear.
As I scroll through the data
you can see the text on the seal changes
according to the GPA within the data.
