Example

initial state

validators on widgets "@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektNummer" and "@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektVerwalter" will be loaded on screen load.

screen.xml

<FrameLayout
    android:id="@+id/exampleFrame"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:visibility="gone"
    gn:act_set="[gn:act_validators]|[disable;;@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektVerwalter],
    [gn:act_validators]|[disable;;a;@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektNummer],
    [gn:act_validators]|[enable;ComparatorValidator;;@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektNummer]" />

<com.ginstr.widgets.GnEditText
    android:id="@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektNummer"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    gn:act_validate="[name:RequiredValidator],[message=@string/addObject_numberRequiredValidatorMessage]"
    gn:act_validate2="[name:ComparatorValidator],[message=@string/validators_editNumberComparatorValidatorMessage1],[comparator=&gt;],[targetWidget=@variable/numberZero],[id=a]"
    gn:act_validate3="[name:ComparatorValidator],[message=@string/validators_editNumberComparatorValidatorMessage2],[comparator=&lt;],[targetWidget=@variable/numberTen],[id=b]"/>

<com.ginstr.widgets.GnEditText
    android:id="@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektVerwalter"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    gn:act_validate="[name:RequiredValidator],[message=@string/addObject_managerRequiredValidatorMessage]"/>		

after action execution

Once FrameLayout "@+id/exampleFrame" "gn:act_set" is exectued all validator on widgets "@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektVerwalter" will be disabled, and "@+id/bebraObjekte_ObjektNummer" validator with id "a" will be disabled and after that both "ComparatorValidator" validators will be enabled
