Hello Everybody, Does anyone know how to make a text/paragraph field

Hello Everybody,
Does anyone know how to make a text/paragraph field only required when the user tries to submit via a specific button? Currently validations on form elements do not trigger when they are blank and I can't use the "required" option since I need to check the validation only when clicking a specific button. I have created a dummy snippet that demonstrates the problem:
load(
local!comment,
a!formLayout(
firstColumnContents: {
a!paragraphField(
value: local!comment,
saveInto: local!comment,
validations: if (len(local!comment) = 0, "You must enter a phrase.", ""),
validationGroup: "comment"
)
},
buttons: a!buttonLayout(
primaryButtons: a!buttonWidgetSubmit(label:"Validate", validationGroup: "comment"),
secondaryButtons: a!buttonWidgetSubmit(label:"Cancel")
)
)
)
