Hello everybody,
Who knows and can help me?

I have a test field with a graphic deposited. The graphic should only be displayed as long as text is available. If the text field is empty, the graphic must not be visible.
Have already tried a lot on Animation> DataChangeIn in this direction.
Thanks in advance

Yes I would like to know if this is possible also. Does GT support triggers?

Ash, it appears to, though I am finding some triggers that work with older titles don't seem to work with new animated titles. So, the OnOverlayIn and onOverlayOut seem to work fine , but not OnCompletion.

If you haven't already solved this there is a workaround using an Excel datasource. Have the image field display a 100% transparent image if there is no text, and the image you want to display if the text cell is not empty. Controlling whether the image displayed is your transparent placeholder or the actual image is controlled with a simple IF formula.

Cell A1: [Input Cell]
Cell B1: =if(A1="","D:\images\transparent.png","D:\images\DisplayImage.png")

Obviously change image names to the full path and name of your own files.

Configure your title to read from the excel datasource and you're golden.

Just realised if you're doing this from an excel datasource your first row would be field headers so change references in the above example to A2 and B2 :)

If GT Designer would support not DataChange, but Data (true/false) animation, a lot of things could be possible.

Here is my example:

5 years late to this party, thank you google. Came across this and I cannot begin to express how thrilled I am to have found such a simple solution.

Sincerely, thank you!
