If you swipe left on the screen above without entering a value an Invalid Input message is displayed.

Type in the name of the city and swipe left to the next screen.

Continue on the next slide.

In this input screen enter a value less than zero and swipe left. That is right: An Invalid Input message is displayed. This is as a result of setting the minimum acceptable value to zero when this input screen was being defined in the form. Enter a valid value and swipe left.
