• If statement to change the items in a drop-down list

  Is there a way to change the options in a drop-down list in a script (without data binding)? So I have a drop down list and depending on what the user selects the second drop-down list will have different options. These elements can be specified by an if statement in the preOpen the second dropdown list event? The form will be filled out offline, so I don't want to put a link of data binding.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  There are at least two ways, as shown in http://forums.adobe.com/message/4321707#4321707.  Basically clearItems/addItem if pre Reader 9.0 or setItems supported if you use Reader 9.0 or later.

• How to change the items in a drop-down list box that is part of an array of clusters

  Hello

  In the attached vi, I have an array of clusters and each cluster contains two drop-down list boxes. How can I edit the items in the drop-down list box 1 for all elements in the array? (All elements of list box 1 has the same elements.)

  By way of illustration, I have also included the case of trivila, for example, edit the items in a separate drop-down list box that is is not part of an array of clusters (combo box 3). Please notify. Thank you.

  Right click on the drop-down list box and select Create-> Node-> String() property. Place it on the block diagram. Change to write (right click) and then feed him an array of strings.

• Select the point in combobox/drop-down list, fields to update

  Hello

  I have a drop-down list. When a user makes a selection, I would like to query a database and return the results to be displayed in a form. Note, I don't want users to have to press a button, it should happen when an element is pressed. It sounds simple enough, but because I'm new, I'm fighting.

  I understand that I need to create a 'change' and then Manager in this handler, I need to run my t service get the data, but then when I try to access these data, nothing happens. I have to Bind something to the combobox? Here is my code.

  "" < s:ComboBox id = "lcidComboBox"change = "lcidComboBox_changeHandler (event)" labelField = "name" selectedItem ="bills.locn{}'> "

  " < s:AsyncListView list =" getLocationsResult.lastResult{}"/ > "

  < / s:ComboBox >

  protected function lcidComboBox_changeHandler(event:IndexChangeEvent):void

  {

  getLocationsResult.token = locationService.getLocations ();

  trace (locations.snam); <-this is not anything!

  }

  See you soon,.

  Brian

  OK, think about it. I needed to include a tag Binding then call my answering machine, the object is able to be called and I can view its properties.

  protected function lcidComboBox_changeHandler(event:IndexChangeEvent):void

  {

  getLocationsResult.token = locationService.getLocations ();

  snamTextInput.text = locations.snam;

  cuidTextInput.text = locations.cuid;

  }

• Populate drop-down list with the results of several drop-down lists

  Hi, I am creating a form where the results of two drop-down lists then would fill another drop-down list. I'm not new to javascript, but I'm new to using it in Acrobat, so while I found some answers to this: Drop-down list fill in multiple fields of text. I don't know where to implement this, if it is still the right thing, I'm looking for pipes for

  Oh and I use Acrobat Pro DC. Any help would be much appreciated!

  OK, you can create a function at the level of the document that is called in the Validate event of each of the two first drop down menus, something like:

  Function in JavaScript to the document level

  function updateDropdown() {}

  Get references to the drop-down menus of entry

  var F1 = getField ("DropdownList1");

  var F2 = getField ("DropdownList2");

  Refer to the output drop-down list

  F3 var = getField ("DropdownList3");

  Get the values of input field, as strings

  var s1 = event.target = f1? Event.value: f1.valueAsString;

  var s2 = event.target = f2? Event.value: f2.valueAsString;

  Fill the drop-down list of output with the elements, or deselect it if either input dropdown is 'empty' (single topic area)

  If (s1 = "" |) s2 === " ") {

  F3.clearItems ();

  } else {}

  F3.setItems (["", s1, s2]);

  }

  }

  In the two first downs Validate event, call this function like this:

  updateDropdown();

  You can of course name the function you want. More information about the properties and the methods used in the code are available in the Acrobat JavaScript documentation.

• I created a PDF form with several drop downs, all with the same drop-down values. When I select a value of 1 in the drop-down list fields, it breeds in all others - which I don't want. How can I fix?

  I am fairly new to this, but I think it has to do with the way you have drop them downs named. Copy you a then keep stick in each area? If so, that's the problem. You must rename each with a different number: Dropdown1, Dropdown2, etc. I think this might solve the problem.

• Using a choice of multiple words in a drop-down list field to launch a java script

  I'm a complete newbie to manuscript of java and relatively new to your building in Acrobat.

  I use a drop-down list field to fill in automatically other fields based on my 1st drop-down list selection.

  The 1st field drop-down allows me to select a variety of suppliers.  Once I have selected the vendor, he auto-remplit the coordinates for this provider.

  I've plagiarized the writing of scripts from this link: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/change_another_field.  I even changed my domain names for the moment.  I'll change my return form field names and the script to match once I got it working like I want.

  If I use only one name in my drop down list provider (1 field), the script works perfectly and auto-remplit contact as expected information.  However, many of my suppliers are two words or more... and I need those names in print, so I can't do just a contraction of a Word.  Here is the script I use:

  Here is an example of a supplier of single word name that works as expected:
  Put all vorkriegsbevölkerung data in a single data structure
  var DeptData = {ADLEMI: {contact: "P.O. BOX 2371",}}
  E-mail: "DOWNEY, CA 90242."
  {{deptnum: "PHONE: (562) 923-0333 FAX: (562) 923-8111 '}};
  function SetFieldValues (cDeptName)
  {
  this.getField("DeptContact").value = DeptData [cDeptName] .contact.
  this.getField("DeptEmail").value = DeptData [cDeptName] .email;
  this.getField("DeptNumber").value = DeptData [cDeptName] .deptnum;
  }

  Unique provider name, I used in the example above is "ADLEMI."  If I add 'BEST' to ADLEMI (see below), I get a syntax error.  I really need to be able to use several words in my list drop-down provider to trigger auto-fill.

  Put all vorkriegsbevölkerung data in a single data structure

  var DeptData = {ADLEMI BEST: {contact: "P.O. BOX 2371",}}

  E-mail: "DOWNEY, CA 90242."

  {{deptnum: "PHONE: (562) 923-0333 FAX: (562) 923-8111 '}};

  function SetFieldValues (cDeptName)

  {

  this.getField("DeptContact").value = DeptData [cDeptName] .contact.

  this.getField("DeptEmail").value = DeptData [cDeptName] .email;

  this.getField("DeptNumber").value = DeptData [cDeptName] .deptnum;

  }

  The only difference is that I added a space and the word 'BEST' after ADLEMI.  Is there a way to get around this.  I need to have several words in my drop-down list, or at least the full name of the vendor indicating in the field when I print it.

  Thank you

  Place quotation marks around the name of the element.

• Show drop-down list field hide selection in another drop-down list box

  Hello I need to create two drop-down fields on a dynamic PDF in LiveCycle. The first field contains three choices. When a user selects an item in the drop-down list first I would like to a new field of drop-down list has been shown. For each item in the first drop-down list appears a new field drop-down list with unique values. If the user chooses blue drop-down list of blue shades indicate in this menu drop-down will be various shades of blue to choose for. If the Red is chosen, Shades of Red dropdown with appearance and if yellow is displayed the same occurs. Also if the user must go back and change their selection in the first drop-down list, they can do the same. Any suggestions?

  Thank you in advance.

  There are 2 ways you could do this. The first is just to have the 3 drop-down lists for the second box to separate and do them all hidden. The output of the first dropdown event would then have the code that would make it the second box become visible, something like (in formcalc):

  If ($ == 1) then

  dropdownRed.presence = "visible".

  dropdownBlue.presence = "hidden".

  dropdownYellow.presence = "hidden".

  ElseIf ($ == 2) then

  dropdownRed.presence = "hidden".

  dropdownBlue.presence = "visible".

  dropdownYellow.presence = "hidden".

  ElseIf ($ == 3) then

  dropdownRed.presence = "hidden".

  dropdownBlue.presence = "hidden".

  dropdownYellow.presence = "visible".

  endif

  The other option is just to have a dropdown that dynamically changes its options based on the results of the first box. So in the second box preOpen event you might have something like (in formcalc):

  If (dropdown1 == 1) then

  $. clearItems()

  $.setItems ("light red, dark red")

  ElseIf (dropdown1 == 2) then

  $. clearItems()

  $.setItems ("sky blue, dark blue")

  ElseIf (dropdown1 == 3) then

  $. clearItems()

  $.setItems ("light yellow, dark yellow")

  endif

• Drop-down list field

  Hi friends,

  In my application from the drop-down list field that I used "ObjectChoiceField" it works but it does not feel like a drop-down list field

  How can I do?

  by the look, he must feel like a drop-down list field?

  Thanks in advance

  I've seen this done before overriding the method object of the ObjectChoiceField to use drawBitmap. In this way paint you a picture on the right of the field (such as the traditional arrow pointing down). You can also use drawRect to draw a rectangle around the whole thing make it look like more traditional.

• How to enable/disable readonly in text fields, drop-down list field?

  For example, I have a dropdown field named "DropdownField" and a field of text called 'TextField '.

  Within 'DropdownField', I have four choices: Option 1, Option 2, another, combination. When the user first sees the "DropdownField", they see 'Select Option.' When the "DropdownField' select Option, Option 1 or Option 2 selected, I want to 'TextField' to be a read only field. However, what other or combination are selected, I want them to be able to grasp things in the 'TextField', which makes is not readonly. Also, tell someone selects 'Other', but realizes that they have made a mistake, I want them to be able to select Option 1, and have the return of 'TextField' read-only.

  Currently I have the JavaScript code as a MouseUp on "DropdownField: action

  var getField.DropdownField = drop;

  var getField.TextField = text;

  If (drop.value! = 'Other' | drop.value! = 'Combination')

  {text.readonly = false ;}

  on the other

  If(drop.value = 'Other' | drop.value = 'Mix')

  {text.readonly = true ;}

  However, the JavaScript code above doesn't seem to work. Please let me know what I'm doing wrong!

  You must use the event to validate drop-down list and use a script like:

  var f = getField("TextField");
  
  if (event.value === "Other" || event.value === "Combination") {
    f.readonly = false;
  } else {
    f.readonly = true;
    f.value = f.defaultValue;
  }
  

  Also, set the option in the drop-down list "Value Commit selected immediately".

• Change the background color of a table cell, depending on the selection in a drop-down list

  I have a drop-down list wrapped in a subform in a table cell. Users can choose green, yellow or red, and I want the background color to change according to their choice.

  Can you tell me why this script does not work? I'm sure that some of you, dear friends can see in a second.

  
  

  If (this. ListItem == "green") {}

  }

  If (this. ListItem == 'red') {}

  Subform1.DropDownList1.fillColor = "255,000,000;

  }

  
  

  Thank you

  Hello

  I think you should be able to use the following code in the event change of the dropdownlist control.

  Form1. #subform [0]. Table1.row2.DropDownList1::change - (JavaScript, client)

  If {(xfa.event.change=="green)"}

  this.fillColor = "000,128,000";

  }

  If {(xfa.event.change=="yellow)"}

  this.fillColor = "255,128,000";

  }

  If {(xfa.event.change=="red)"}

  this.fillColor = "255,000,000;

• Where is the past, bookmark button that displays all THE bookmarks as a drop-down list?

  I had to reinstall my OS, and now I don't see the big 'Favorites' button, I got to the right of the search box Google with Firefox.
  It is with the value 'Icons' of icons.
  I use to be able to click on "Favorites" and they appear in a drop-down list, like 'latest news' power works.
  I can click the Favorites (with the star on this subject), who comes here to open a sidebar - not a menu drop-down which disappears when I clicked it.

  I loaded Windows 7 and took some quick screenshots for you:
  http://tinyurl.com/3c7ouvs

  Also note that it only shows the bookmarks menu button if you use the Firefox menu button and not the classic menu bar, because it would be quite redundant to have a button and the bookmarks at the top menu which does exactly the same thing.

  Look at what you have in the toolbar and what is in the window customize (you may need to scroll down). If you have one in the toolbar then the other is probably in the window customize somewhere. If you have a lot of addons installed there may be many buttons to look through.

  If you have problems you can just click on the 'Restore Default Set' button in the Customize dialog box to restore the default values that will also involve of the bookmarks that you want to switch all your toolbars. If you had any other customizations to your toolbars and then change them back again.

• drop-down lists on the forms don't drop-down list

  I use Firefox 3.6.16 on Mandriva 2010.2 and for the last two months, the drop-down lists don't dropdown. I thought a patch would come out to fix it or it would be one of my modules cause. There was an update recently and it has not fixed. Today, I've disabled all addons and restarted, but still it does not allow me to make a choice with the mouse.

  There are many similar problems with FF4, but none of the solutions appear to be relevant.

  Anyone got any suggestions?

  < edit > I just disabled all the plugins too but still the same. What I noticed at the time, is that there seem to be two versions of Flash installed, but only the first shows under tools modules Plugins

  There is no need to create a new thread. You can edit your first post and change the title, if you want to change it or I can do it if you post a better title.

  Problems with a menu drop-down does not not can be caused by an extension.

  Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > appearance/themes).

  • Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.
  • https://support.Mozilla.com/kb/safe+mode

  See:

  • Troubleshoot extensions, themes, and issues of hardware acceleration to resolve common problems of Firefox

  If this does not work in mode without failure, then disable all extensions and then try to find out who is the cause by allowing both the problem reappears.

  • Close and restart Firefox after each change through "file > exit ' (Mac: ' Firefox > leave";) Linux: "file > exit ')

• Modification of the properties-type def drop-down list box

  I have a group of 32 cases of a def type. The def type contains several different types of control. What I have to do is to change the properties of the list box for each of the type defs. Normally, I would create an array of references to change the properties for each of the type defs, but when I try this I can not access the properties of string [] for combo box selections. The only way I found to fix it is to create a reference for each individual drop-down list box item. It is labour, since I'll have 32 elements. Is there a way to beeter to do this? The first screenshot shows the issui I'll have, not being able to change the properties of specific elements within each of the def type at runtime through a control [] array. The second screenshot shows the only solution I've found so far, which is not very practical.

  You will need to set up (for a more specific class) control to a type of combo box for the particular control [] index that has the combobox control if you want to access the drop-down list.

  You can also access the combobox in a cluster based directly, rigth click on the control reference and a link to the element cluster directly.

  The last option is to make the strictt of typdef will fill all instances with the channel list [] given that it is a strict property.

  the approach is based on the weather, you plan on changing the list during execution.
