Calculation in linked fields problem

    Dear Calculated Fields Form plugin developers,

    I’ve got a problem calculating two values in two different calculated forms from one arbitrary number in the third form.

    For example, I have three calculated field forms on page (pounds, kilograms and grams). I want to put just one value in any form to get this value converted in two others.

    But when I actually trying to do this, I’ve got an error – calculation goes in cycles and it never stops in linked fields.

    Can you please help me fix this.

    Hi,

    You can not insert in the form two calculated fields A and B, where the field A depends of field B, but in turn field B depends of field A, because it creates an infinite loop.

    You should find a different solution. For example, you can insert an input field and a radio group with three choices: pounds, kilograms and grams, and display the calculated fields in function of choice selected.

    Best regards.
