Been trying to make the input fields mandatory before the learner can click on the next button, I have tried lots of different conditions as not empty, not equal to _null (setting this variable to another empty field) before it shows the next button nothing has worked so far. I have managed to go around and use the click object option before the learner can see the button but this is not ideal.

Also I don't see the need of a large input field that goes from one side to the other of the page but instead it would be great if I could add two input fields side by side instead.
