What is a Condition? – Lime FAQ

For some field types you can add Conditions. A Condition can be a rule saying that if you choose one alternative in a form, you should be presented with a specific question accordingly.

Show or hide fields depending on choices made in form

If you want a field to be shown or hidden depending on choices made previously in the form you must use “Conditions”.

To edit Conditions you navigate to the forms Steps tab and click the Edit conditions button next to the Edit fields button. Next simply click Add condition to do so and start to edit your condition.

Example: User is presented with a Radio button field with two choices; Private Customer and Company Customer.

If the user select ‘Private Customer’, a previously hidden field for Personal Number will become visible. If the user were to choose ‘Company Customer’ instead, another condition showing a hidden field for Company Number will become visible.

Field types that you can put conditions on are:
