Can I get a text element in a formula from the same screen?

Hi,
I have:
Screen 1: Form with inputs for values (6 number inputs)
Screen 2: Results (text):

  • Result 1: Math formula using values of form input
  • Result 2: Math formula using values of form input
  • Result 3: Math formula using values of form input

Here is my problem:

  • Result 4 = result1+result2+result 3 (I can’t find a way to do this)
  • Result 5 = result4/N (I can’t find a way to do this)

So, can I use a text element as an element on a formula? I’can find a way to do this with the options given.

I know I could combine al the formulas and make new ones for result 4 and 5 but the formulas are really long/tricky and I couldn’t find a way to copy them.

Thanks for your help!

You need to go the long way in less you persist the results inter user collection… There is no option to reference a calculated result from a formula in a screen element.
As you are switching screens, you can add a action on the second (see the screen properties, add action) to save the results 1- 3.
Doing the same for result 4 and 5 might be a timing problem when the connection is slow, but you can try.
Anyway you can do the calculation of result 4 and 5 using the saved results in formulas on the screen.
