Axure Tutorial: High-Fidelity Password Text Field

Introduction

The password text field is a common control. Although the default text field provided by Axure can realize simple password input, it can not realize the feature of switching ciphertext / plaintext. This tutorial teaches you how to make a high-fidelity password text field.

Features to be Realized

Password Text Field

1. Hover, focus, correct and error styles of text field
2. Click the eye icon to switch between plaintext / ciphertext of the text field.

How to Realize these Features

1. Create a rectangular dynamic panel. The states of the dynamic panel includes default, hover, focus, correct, error.
2. Create a text field with two states of plaintext and ciphertext, and click the eye button to switch the states.
