- Conditional Enable Disable: If the element is non-editable this feature will make it editable and if the element is editable this feature will make it non-editable based on the condition. Select the page and the variable on that page. Then choose from the conditions, i.e., 'When Above Variable's Value Exist's or 'When Above Variable's Value is', and choose the value of the variable for the second condition. So, when the value of the chosen variable on the selected page exists or has a certain defined value based on the condition, then this element, here, the textarea can be enabled/disabled.
