in a FME FORM i have made some user parameter, that takes in input; one of them have a conditional visibility based on whether another user parameter has an input of > 100. When i run the creator in FORM, and input a number abobe 100,  it works, but when i publish it to FLOW the conditional visibility doesn’t work.

then, if I change the condition to “is 100” instead og “> 100” and republish, it works.

is this a bug, or is there a work around?  

@nikolajolesen which version of form and flow are you using?


@crutledge both are 2023.2.1


@nikolajolesen good to know. I always ask that first b/c conflicting versions can cause issues. Let me try on my end (i will be using 2024 though) and see if I can reproduce.


Hi ​@nikolajolesen I can reproduce what you are seeing. Don’t know what we are missing but does not look like it is functioning the way one would expect. I tried text and number input. >, >= . Only evaluator that seems to work is “Is”/”Is Not”. 
 

>100
Is 100
Is 100

Someone else may know more as to why.


@crutledge thank you very much for trying it out! At least it’s good to know, that it’s not just on my end. Lets hope someone have an answer 🙏🏻


@nikolajolesen Ha! I have been there. Scratching my head for days trying to get something to work and end up with “bug”. Or even worse “working as designed” 😅 


If you think it is a bug (looking at the above i’d suggest it is) It’s worth opening up a bug ticket with Safe. It is possible that this has been resolved in newer versions, but it is still worth bringing to their attention.
