Add multiple items to a menu drop-down

Hi all

With the help of Adobe Acrobat Pro 2015.008 DC Version

I have just started preparation to complete a form. This will be my first. I need to add a drop-down selection of customers. The person filling out the form click the field, and he would show them a list of customers. There are about 100 customers. Ideally, they should be able to start typing a few letters and drop-down.

Is it possible to add all clients at once to the drop-down list? I can't add one at a time.

Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

Concerning

Vera Hawkins

You download and use the following demo PDF to speed up the process: http://acroscript.net/pdf/demos/comboPopulateTest.pdf

The idea is that you copy & paste or manually enter a list of items (each line is a separate element) in the big yellow multi-line field, press the 'Populate combo box' and then copy & paste the drop down field to your form. Then resize you the field and other field properties based on the value. Post again if you need help with it.

If you think you will need to do a lot, I have developed a utility that acts as a plug-in for Acrobat that makes this process much simpler and faster than the native interface of Acrobat. You can send me a message via the forum for more information.

  • How to make an item in the menu drop-down open another field when selected?

    For example; I'm doing a drop down menu and one of the options is 'other '.

    Pls help

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, it can be done using a simple, written script in JavaScript.

    Basically, it would be something like this (as a script validation custom from the drop-down list):

    "this.getField("Others").display = (event.value =="Others)? Display.visible: display.hidden;

    A script more complex can also be used to clear the value of the 'other' field, set its fill color, etc..

  • Help! items in a menu drop-down appears in the drop-down list all the boxes form

    I created an order form with a list of product selection

    to create the form more easy, I copied the premiera and glued to the bottom of the page (so many elements can be ordered on a single page, each item on a new line)

    However, when I use the form and make my selection of a line, all lines show the same thing...

    How can I fix.

    You must rename the fields that you copied so that they each have a unique

    name.

    Doug,

    Ah, this is called the Menu Action and at this stage there is no way to do - at least not a supported method. You could always manipulate the list 'apexir_ACTIONSMENU '...

    It would make an enhancement request well.

    Hi Praveen,

    You can add items to the list in a specific order, which would be to load the elements in an array, sorting and then load in the dropdown list drop-down list.  This would be in the click event of the button Add.

    Create a table to hold all the list items, table drop-down list contains objects with a property 'displayItem' and 'value '.

    dropDownItems var = [];

    Add the new

    dropDownItems.push ({displayItem: ItemName.rawValue, value: BoundValue.rawValue});

    Add existing ones

    for (var i = 0; i)< dropdownlist1.length;="">

    {

    dropDownItems.push ({displayItem: DropDownList1.getDisplayItem (i), value: DropDownList1.getSaveItem (i)})

    }

    Sort by ascending order of displayed text

    () dropDownItems.sort

    function (a, b)

    {

    If (a.displayItem< b.displayitem)="" return="">

    If (a.displayItem > b.displayItem) return 1;

    return 0;

    });

    clear all items

    DropDownList1.clearItems ();

    load the sorted items

    for (var i = 0; i)< dropdownitems.length;="">

    {

    var dropDownItem = [i] dropDownItems;

    DropDownList1.addItem (dropDownItem.displayItem, dropDownItem.value);

    }

    clear the fields of the source

    ItemName.rawValue = null;

    BoundValue.rawValue = null;

    I added a button 'Add' sorted in my sample https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=OwysfJa-Q3HhPtFlgRb62g

    Hello and welcome to the Microsoft answers community.

    To help you, I'll have to ask a question: what program or an application are you unable to access your menu drop-down?

    I can't wait to hear back on your part.

    Links to these files are incorrect on your download page, here's why...

    The... / to link resources ' move to a directory "so away which is located in the folder root of your site, the IndexA.html page you gave as an example, the link to the page"... / js/bootstrap.js "says the browser to" mount a directory and look for a folder called js, and then open the file called bootstrap.js.

    No Viewer online will have access to this directory because it is one higher than the root of the site (the first directory available to the public for your site). If scripts on these files cannot be run by the user's browser because they don't have access to the directory, in that they are supposed to be.

    Something went wrong, be it with your site definition, or of your download, causing these links to create properly.

    If these files are located in a folder called js in the root of your site (on the same level as IndexA.html), you can remove the... / in front of them to add a link to the page for scripts.

  • New Firefox doesn't have a history of menu drop down reliable - help!

    I've just upgraded to the latest version of Firefox and makes a few versions that I did that. An important feature that I use in my work is now gone! I need to be able to work my way through screens of 3-4 on our Web site, and then return to the first screen to enter a different search term, spend 3-4 screens, go back to the first screen for a new period of research, etc.. Because of the way our system is set up it is not possible for me to simply mark the first screen - I need to come back as it was, over and over again.

    Help, I can't do it now! Used to be I could pull down a menu drop-down 'history' from the back button, but it is no longer possible. The list of actual history, when I go to him in the menu does not list for just the page history that I am on, for some reason any and does not give me the link to the screen, that I need to come back.

    It's very very frustrating - it looks like a feature was removed, and I need this feature to do my job effectively. Can you help me to add this back to the next version of Firefox or to let me know how I can go back to the previous version if I use this feature? Please - thanks.

    The arrow to open the history tab of the previous buttons and following was removed in Firefox 4 and later versions.

    Use one of the following methods to open the tab history list:

    • Right-click on the back or next button
    • Press and hold the left button of the mouse on the active back or forward button until the list opens

    You can watch this extension:

  • Is there a way to return to the menu drop-down button "return"?

    It's a giant pain click back several times when before I could just look in the menu to find the page I wanted to come back.

    Is there a way to do this somewhere else perhaps?

    You can get the menu drop-down by clicking on the previous/next buttons or now the left key pressed until the list is displayed.

    If you want the drop-down arrow, you can add it with the add-on of dropmarker rear - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker
