border drop-down color change on entry/exit event

Hello

I'm drop-down list to change the border color and thickness on entry/exit events. I found this script written by Niall O'Donovan, who works for text and numeric fields, but not for a list drop-down and chackbox.

Could someone please adjust this script for a drop down list?

Come in:

VNAME var = this.name.toString ();

xfa.resolveNode (VNAME + ".") ui.textEdit.border.edge") .stroke ="solid";

for (var i = 0; i < 4; i ++) {}

this.ui.oneOfChild.border.getElement("edge",i).color.value = "255,153,0"; orange tint

xfa.resolveNode(vName_+_".ui.textEdit.border").getElement ("edge", I) .thickness = "0,0200" in

}

output:

VNAME var = this.name.toString ();

for (var i = 0; i < 4; i ++) {}

xfa.resolveNode(vName_+_".ui.textEdit.border").getElement ("edge", I) .thickness = "0,0069" in

}

xfa.resolveNode (VNAME + ".") ui.textEdit.border.edge") .stroke is"lowered";.

Thank you

Marko

Hi Marion

The script you should to a TextField (textEdit, for example).

In the examples I give, there is a list of properties .ui that you can use for different objects:

For example:

Date field =      #dateTimeEdit
Dropdown =      #choiceList
Checkbox =      #checkButton
Text field =      #textEdit
Numeric field =     #numericEdit

If you have a look at the examples on page 2 of this example: http://assure.ly/gzOH0E.

So for the drop-down list to replace "#textEdit" by "#choiceList" AND use "#checkBox" for the checkbox.

Hope that helps,

Niall

  • The drop-down list changes color with background option selected

    Hello!

    I m stuck with this drop-down menu that I need to have a red background, if the TBD option is active (which is the default) and have no backgrond if no other option is selected.

    drop01.png

    drop02.png

    drop03.png

    The red background is a red rectangle that is visible or hidden, I have all code in the event of modification of the drop-down list:

    if (this.rawValue == "TBD"){
        RectangleRed2.presence = "visible";
    }else{
        RectangleRed2.presence = "hidden";
    }
    

    But the thing is that the event checks the value when is changed, so if I'm in the value of TBD and I selected point 1, the recntagle is still visible, because at the moment, I have chosen point 1 value was to be determined, so does not in the way I need to.

    Anys ideas?

    Thank you!

    You must use

    if (xfa.event.newText == "TBD"){
    ...
    

    Then it works fine.

    "xfa.event.newText" evaluates to dropdown in the runtime.

    Hope it is useful,

  • My drop down menu changed search bar

    Everything I see that I get help on the search bar in the upper right corner shows the emblem of a little search engine. I don't have much, and I can't get it back. Worse still, when I start typing, I search point that I must now address a long list of terms of indefinable query from nowhere!

    I don't know how I changed all form the way it had been forever. I want to just my little drop down menu with a few indicators of search engine to this topic, and I just want to see my previous research, not what is trendy!

    Hi relem, I have already explained the reasoning behind the change: it is now much faster and easier to use different search engines that your browser by one on a wide base. If you want to do in the old search bar, you must first define a different engine in the search bar, search & then switch back (because the default value is also used in the address/home/new tab bar). It's a simple click!

    Here is a script that you can use for the validation script custom from the drop-down list. It resets the value of the text box, whenever a change is made to the drop-down list. You can get rid of the line doing it, if you do not want to. Change "text1" in the code to match the name of a text field that you are using.

    Validate a custom for picklist script

    (function () {}

    Get the selected value

    v var = event.value;

    Set up an object to associate status items text box read-only

    var f_state = {}

    'Outside': true,

    'Back': true,

    'Interiors': true,

    'Cotton': false,

    'Wool': false

    };

    Get a reference to the text field

    var f = getField ("text1");

    Clear the text field

    f.Value = "";

    Set the State of read-only text box based on what is selected

    If (v f_state) {}

    f.ReadOnly = f_state [v];

    }

    })();

  • Drop-down list on the entry of riding?

    Hello

    I'm developing an interactive form of VISITOR Adobe, I have Designer 8.1 and Reader 9.0 in my Windows 7 laptop. When I checked the menu EDIT-> properties-> compatibility, its form Adobe XML File (XDP)

    When I opened this interactive form to VISITORS in a browser, right click and PROPERTIES-shaped, then I saw the "PDF Version: 1.6 (Acrobat 7.x).

    I have a bunch of drop-down lists in my interactive form, done by drag dropiing the purpose of "combo", at the end I linked to a data source, works very well, say his list of COUNTRIES.

    Use open form, as soon as he saw the 'USA' pre-filled from the drop area, very well.

    Declined the user entries, he saw a couple, like the USA, Canada, UK, Spain, fine.

    But now the user want to enter / replace this entry USA with its own value, such as FRANCE, but my form does not allow her to behave like a field "readOnly"!

    Pls. Let me know more how to mount a seizure of values in drop-down list, according to eager users of value?

    If I understand your question correctly, then I think that you need to do is

    Check the box "Enable custom text entry" on the page of the SUBJECT FIELD

    palette. It is found in the area where you define list items in

    your drop-down list.

  • How can I use a selection of menu items drop down to change another field value?

    Hi guys! I work in a medical care center and I need to create a PDF file that must contain certain fields in the form. I managed to create the largest part of these areas, but I'm stuck in a menu drop-down. The drop down menu contains the names of 83 employees. Each employee has a unique code of 6 numbers. I wish these codes to appear automatically in another field based on the selection of a brand in the drop-down menu field. Is there a way to do this without scripts? I'm not a programmer and have no programming capabilities. I work in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC!

    Forms.jpg

    You can do this by using a very simple script.

    Basically what you need to do is define the export value of each item in your drop-down menu for the corresponding code to this person and then use this code as the custom text field calculation script (replace 'Employee' in the code with the actual field name, of course):

    Event.Value = this.getField("Employee").valueAsString;

    PS. You must also enable the option validate the selected value immediately in the drop-down list field. You'll find it under properties, Options tab.

    Out of the following options in the drop-down list:

    Knife, jar, cutting board, mower, Weed Eater, Edger

    I wanted to arrange as follows in the drop-down list:


    Kitchen

    Knife

    Pot

    Cutting board

    yard

    Mower

    Weed Eater

    Trimmer

    While the six points in the categories are the only items to choose in the list.

  • bottom border only dynamic color change

    I have a text box in a form that has the bottom border shown.  This box is turned on and off programmatically (using a function) function to know if some other boxes are checked.  When the text box is active, it has the value of access = 'open' and I want the bottom border to change from gray to black.

    I have what I believe, is functioning code to generally change the color of a border, shown below:

    function
    
     ULineTBoxOn(MySubformNum,MyFieldRef){eval(MyFieldRef 
    
    + ".access = 'open';");
    eval("xfa.resolveNode('form1.#subform[" 
    + MySubformNum + "]." + MyFieldRef + ".ui.#textEdit.border.edge.color').value = '" + BlackCode.value + "';");
    }
    
    
    

    But this does nothing to my particular text box.  I made a text where I've activated all of my text box borders and then ran the above function on this text box, and it changed the color of the top border.

    I see in the XML code in the text box properties for each boundary edge are defined at once, with the bottom third, as shown below:

    < name of field = "Docket_Year" y = "90,17 mm" x = "147,3198 mm" l = h '13,4239 mm""6.35 mm"access ="readOnly"= >

    < ui >

    < hScrollPolicy textEdit 'off' = >

    < border >

    < m presence = "hidden" / >

    < m presence = "hidden" / >

    < edge / >

    < m presence = "hidden" / >

    <? templateDesigner styleId aped1? > < / border >

    < margin / >

    < / textEdit >

    < image > 99 < / image >

    < /UI >

    What seems to happen when I run my function above, is that I only change the color of the FIRST referenced in the XML file, which is the part superior (?).  Or something like that.  How to change the color of the LOWER edge only?

    Thank you
    Emily

    Hi Emily,.

    Once you have assigned to your variable and it passed to your function - you can solve it within the function, then the following works here:

    MyResFieldRef.ui.oneOfChild.border.getElement("edge",2).color.value = fieldFocus.value;

    Your script to access "#textEdit" - try "oneOfChild".

    Example updated work on the text field and the digital field.

    Hope you find it works,

  • If drop-down menu changes, how do I reset a dependent field

    Hi again,

    Another question about my form.   Would that be an action or script I need to write?

    If the dropdown is changed to BoxA, I wish BoxB to back to white.  How do I start?

    Thank you!

    This is most likely due to a wrong field calculation order. The correction procedure, it depends on which version of Acrobat you are using. While you're in form editing mode, select:

    Acrobat 9: shape > edit fields > set field calculation order

    Acrobat 11: Tasks > other tasks > set field calculation order

    Acrobat DC: More > set field calculation order

  • Drop-down list C5.5 problem with corresponding colour/color

    Hi, is it possible to change the color of the letters that appear in the drop-down lists for a corresponding question to 5.5?

    I use white text on a gray background for my slides of quiz, which is nice and easy to read, but then in the preview the letters in the menu drop-down appear as white text on white background. I don't see a way to change the font in the drop-down menu back to black (as it is on my opinion edition), without also changing the color of the text of the response.

    Is there a way to change this?

    I just tried covering the lists of more than a piece of the background image - so that the user doesn't even know they are there, but the quiz slide ordered the image behind the lists.

    Otherwise it is a way to change the color, is it possible to have a corresponding slide without a drop-down list at all?

    Thanks for reading

    Hello

    The color of the text can also be changed. Once finished with the Manager object model to change the drop-down color menu, you can then change the color of the text through the category of characters under the properties on the right side panel. See below:

  • How can I sort alphabetically in the drop-down list in the Tools menu of Firefox?

    The Tools menu has a drop-down list, but the entries are not in alphabetical order. Options and a few individual add-ons/extensions appear in the list, but not in alphabetical order. It would be useful to them in alphabetical order in the list, however, I can't find any option to sort. Did I miss a hidden, built-in option for sorting? Is there an add-on may be providing a way to sort? Someone has an idea? I have not found anything this either in my research on the subject... just what is the sorting of bookmarks. But it's the combo of Tools menu I want to be able to twist. Anyone?

    There is no built-in opportunities to change the menus of the application. The easiest way to do this is by using the editor from Menu Add-on.

  • Drop-down selection w/export value sent to another field.

    Good afternoon

    I managed to create a drop-down menu field called Dropdown1 with a list of user names. Each user name has a value of unique export assigned to them.

    I then created a second text called Text1 field where the value of exports is complete. In this area, I've added the following script Adobe to send the value of exports of Dropdown1 successfully to Text1

    Event.Value = this.getField("Dropdown1").value;

    However, I need allow the user to make manual changes to both Dropdown1 and Text1 without the script of the substitution of manual entry. Is there a solution?

    Thank you!

    Ed

    I guess that's a custom calculation script. I think a better approach is to set the value of the text field when the user makes a selection in the drop-down list by using a script customized to the key sequence in the dropdown menu, something like:

    Custom keystroke for drop-down list script

    If (! event.willCommit) {}

    getField("Text1").value = event.changeEx;

    }

    Don't forget to delete the calculation script if you do this. In addition, it is best that you also set the option "Commit selected value immediately" for the drop-down list.
