Cannot select the fields to be used in a calculation field in Acrobat XI

I am running Acrobat XI on Windows 10 and set up a form.  I'm having a problem with the implementation of a field to make a total calculated.

The first field has the user to enter the number of widgets sold. The field is formatted as a decimal number.

The second field is the user to enter the price per widget.  This field is formatted as a number to 2 decimal places.

I want the product of fields one and two for appear in zone 3, which also in the form of a number to 2 decimal places.  When I opened the box of 3 field properties and go to the tab calculate and select value is the product of the following fields and click the Select button, I can see fields 1 and 2 in the field list, but by clicking on the buttons to select them does nothing, that is, I can not select the (or any other area besides).  The boxes stays white when I click on them.

It is a frequently asked question.

Acrobat has not the point of sense and the box always aligned for all systems. Fortunately most computer operating systems use the space as an activator of selector key. If it highlights the domain name pressing the SPACEBAR will select or deselect the field highlighted.

You may also be able to use the option of simplified field Notation if the names of the fields conform to the naming standard.

  • Impossible to select the fields in Acrobat Pro XI tools/editor of formulas to calculate

    First of all, in the form Acrobat Pro XI during an attempted editor calculate fields, I don't and then select the fields (click), to calculate.  I can only just select or deselect all.

    Also, if my simple spreadsheet formula is:

    =IF(Value01> 0,SUM(Value01* (Value02-Value03)),"")

    Is there a simple way to translate this formula in a calculation script in the form Pro Adobe Acrobat XI (or FormsCentral) tools?

    Thanks for any input.

    Relating to the selection of fields: use the space bar or click a little out of the center of

    Thank you, Sean. I found out what I needed to know to fix the DIF from a document from hp customer service. I was able to fix by restarting, it is to unplug the usb cable first from the printer, wait 5 seconds, plug the cable back in. Then I desconnected the cable from the computer, wait 5 seconds and plugged.

    Duh!

    Thanks for responding.

    Edit:
    Oh, it looks that it points to dba_tab_comments. Since your original post:

    Who do not have the right of Rodolfo.

    And a good thing that you do not 'go to your DBA"as suggested. It was just to choose the wrong solution to an unknown problem.

  • IllegalStateException when Date by selecting the second time by using the date picker.

    I didn't think you could add a DatePicker to a field, and the only way to use the component is to use the method. doModal(). So I created a button which FieldChangeListener calls the method. It works the first time I click on the button and select a date, but the second time I get IllegalStateException.

    datePickerButton = new ButtonField("Date", ButtonField.CONSUME_CLICK | ButtonField.FIELD_RIGHT);

    Maybe the datePicker does not clean themselves properly and you must create a new instance each time. I guess that since there doModal there are a few static fields/methods within the class to reiinitialized on each call.

  • Cannot configure the fields to fill in Mode "to prepare the form." Please help :)

    Hello Adobe community.

    Here is a video link to explain my problem, there is also some text below explaining my problem too:

    Questions of implementation of the fields to fill in Adobe Acrobat.webm - Google Drive

    Last week I published a PDF file in Acrobat and added to fill fields... everything worked very well.

    This week, I'm doing the same thing.

    -J' open the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat (CC)

    -I'm going to "prepare the form."

    -J' I 'add a text field.

    * Now at this stage, everything worked fine. But now... I add the text field and I can't change it at all. I can't resize the text box, select it, nothing. I can even add a default in its properties, and nothing will be displayed. What is going on? I tried troubleshooting this online and I can't find an answer. In addition, I just did this last week, so I know it's possible lol.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Levi Koenig

    It is a strange...

    First of all, thanks for the video, it's so much easier to understand what is happening when I see how things do not work.

    From what I see, I guess that it is something that is specific to this particular document. Have you tried to add form fields to a whole new document? You can do by ensuring that no other document is open in Acrobat, then Cmd-Shift-T to create a new document with a blank page in it. Now select Tools > prepared form - because this is a new document that was never recorded, Acrobat invites you to save it. Once registered, try to add a form field. It work? The form field is the way that you expect it to behave?

    If this isn't the case, then it is very likely that there is something wrong with the installation of Acrobat. The first thing I would try is to select help > check updates, make sure that you are running the latest version of Acrobat DC. If this does not help, I uninstall Acrobat and install again a new download. You can download Acrobat here: download Pro or Standard versions of Acrobat DC, XI or X

    If the problem is specific to your document, we will know why this is. It is possible that the document is corrupt. There are several ways you can try to recover from some alterations: the first thing I would try is to do a "save under" to save a new file name. Does it work or you get an error message? If you can save as a new file, the new file shows the same problems? If so, then try to extract just one page in a new document. To do this, open the thumbnail on the left, then select the page, right-click and select Extract page. This sill to create a new document with just one page in there, save it and try again.

    If you are still not able to add form fields that behave properly, it gets a bit more complex. How was the file created? Application used to create the original file and what application was used to save the file as a PDF file? Would you be able to share this file?

  • Cannot select the text to change

    Is the text on the master?

    It is on a locked layer?

    The text block is locked?

  • EasySign: what I can or cannot change the fields to fill?

    Is it just me, or is Acrobat EchoSign a hostile user to the garbage piece? I use reader 10.1.3. This is a form that I would complete and perhaps 'sign' with a TIFF of my signature, but first I have to type in some areas. Arrived at this point took me 20 minutes this morning:

    Acrobat EasySign.jpg

    (Sorry for the fur JPEG;) Forums Adobe informed me passively after that I tried to save three no-anti-aliasing 'content types' that he would only accept JPEG format.)

    If you examine the name under the section 'INFO' field, you will see three blue spots reflecting three multiple selections no region of text boxes in the list to the right. These objects are the result of my patiently left click the i-beam on my name in order to change the text that I entered in each field. Whenever I did, I would like to briefly see a blip appear under the i-beam, but he would not let me change my text. The blip, of course, was a text box of length zero being created. I persisted because at some point given, I swear I saw an arrow icon and it let me do a selection in blue on a parcel of my text, but then for some reason any when I typed nothing happened, then the apparition disappeared and I couldn't repeat it. And it is only after a few minutes, when I started to play with a right click on a text field, I discovered the "list of comments" so needless of me in frustration.

    There are now dozens of these mini boxes everywhere in the sheet (just look at how the "list of comments" has 86 entries instead of the 12 that actually contain text). But it means I can't change something when I finished a text, isn't it? If so, why not? Why is he not clear for me, a sophisticated user? Why the bizarre and unpredictable behavior? Or I'm a sort of silly, not having found the correct incantation? Maybe an Adobe firewing priestly programmers or myriads now will enlighten us all, tacitly suggesting that it's just my stupidity, because they knew the blessed Secret their first time.

    I have fairly exhaustive sought a solution to this and have so far found nothing, but maybe it's because I've budgeted only 45 minutes for this potential simple task. Am I'll have to check out this file in Illustrator, or print it out and post it?

    Twenty years ago, I was probably the first or second person outside mountain view to show the alpha of the carousel. Since that time - and despite having occupied hope repeatedly - I still can't easily fill a document online without heartache. Why can't I edit a field? What I have to do when I want to edit a multi-line field? My workaround over the years have range from every possible thing you can imagine, the scan in Photoshop or Illustrator, Quark or InDesign; in the fields of the blind and double-exposures on a printer laser. the glue; even to hack the fields the PostScript with setfonts and the movetos shows.

    I spent 40 years in the graphic arts; half of them I've struggled with Acrobat, on some products work quite complex with the features of questionable when delivery shoehorned in PDF format. When it comes to simple single-page monochrome form letter/A4 - the portable document more abundant on earth - we are now in Acrobat v10 and all I want to do is easily a form, sign and return by email and I still can't.

    Why is life so much harder now than when I could run that through a typewriter, Adobe? What you really do about it for billions? How much more precious moments of our lives that you're going to waste?

    (P.S. What difference is almost a day: hours after this - and just before submitting this article - I myself have discovered the cast with a few minutes more far experiments most already spent. Now, I can recreate the arrow and change the field. It's really not hard, but it's far from clear is the furthest thing of the good technique of the user interface. However, I know now the blessed Secret, or at least a part of it. But it does not change my position above. You can guess why, O Adobe priesthood of unbearable preachy? If it takes a programmer experienced hours to learn the combination, what makes you think to Grandma and Grandpa never go figure?)

    I have to say that a large part of the problem is due to the agency providing the form. This would have worked much better if they had taken the time to add real interactive form fields so that you wouldn't have to worry about the typewriter tool. It's actually good that Adobe provides that as an option of last resort for PDF files that look like forms. It of a little silly to provide a PDF of a form and makes it not to fill, especially since it's possible since Acrobat/Reader 3. This particular form would be easy to implement with fields.

    Regarding the file TIFF is not not qualify, it is worth looking at in more. Consider filing a bug report.

  • cannot select the disk to install the update of the Sierra (Macbook Pro 13 inch, late 2011)

    I downloaded the update of the Sierra and proceeded with the installation. However, I noticed that even if I could move the pointer autour, I couldn't make selections on tapping the trackpad. I managed to get past the first steps by using the 'tab' key (keyboard) to make selections and 'space' to make the confirmations. However, arriving at step 'select the disk where you want to install Mac OS', the 'Tab' and 'Space' technical has stopped working. Now I'm stuck here. Can someone tell me please how to go beyond this?

    Looks like it's a problem of trackpad? Or in any case a trackpad issue connected with installation of Sierra? I would take the MBP for a Genius Bar...
