Change the number of decimal places according to the value of the field

Hello world

I'm doing a form using Adobe Acrobat.

I want a field that usually has only 2 decimal places, to have 4 decimal positions ONLY when necessary.

Example: If the value of the field is 3.53 that's fine, but if the value is 3,5346 I want to show him this.

I played around field properties and I realized that I need to use a custom format script. I don't know where to start, however. Can you point me in the right direction?

Thank you in advance.

I just threw together quickly and did not test, take is as a general guide. It is intended to be placed in a JavaScript to the document level and called from custom Format script of the field. You can not put it simply everything as the script to Format because of the way that Acrobat behaves when you do.

The point of the script is to calculate the number to use as the first parameter to the AFNumberFormant function, which is that Acrobat uses when configuring a digital format. I couldn't think of a clever name for the function, so I leave it to you:

function fmt1() {

    // Set the minimum number of digits to the right of the decimal
    var min = 2;

    // Get the field value, as a string
    var val = event.value;

    // Round to the nearest 10-thousand of a cent
    var rn = util.printf("%.4f", val);

    // Replace any trailing zeroes with nothing
    rn = rn.replace(/[0]+$/, "");

    // Get the number of characters after the decimal
    var num = rn.split(".")[1].length;

    // Set to the minimum if appropriate
    if (num < 2) num = 2;

    // Use built-in formatting function
    AFNumber_Format(num, 2, 0, 0, "\u20ac", true);

}

Call it like that in the case of the field Format:

fmt1();

If this isn't a calculated field, but the one who interacts with a user, you'll want to add a function with the swing, something like:

function keystroke1() {

    AFNumber_Keystroke(2, 2, 0, 0, "\u20ac", true);

}

  • To the number of decimal places control user input

    Hey everybody,

    I am all new to LabVIEW and just learn how it works. I was wondering if there was a way to allow user input to change the number of decimal places (the output of my function is infinitely extensible).

    I tried, but it did not work:

    Using a digital input, I appended a string with "%" + '[INPUT]' + 'f' with the number of function concat strings and string functions. I used the resulting string as the formatting string in the value format function.

    This doesn't quite work. The output should be something like "28.274", but instead, it displays "283f. Anyone know why? Is there a better way to do it?

    In addition, attach a picture of the front panel and diagram of block for clarity.

    (Yes, it's homework, but the assignment does not include allowing the user to adjust the number of decimal places, it's just something I would like to add.)

    Get rid of the number 2 for the width of your decimal string number.  It requires a space before a number to a number.  %. 6F is not equal to % .6f.  The string format don't quite understand the first format string.

    (PS.  It helps if you attach your VI.  In this way we can play with what you have rather than trying to recreate it from scratch.)

  • Address book - blackBerry Smartphones change the field "synchronize using.

    Hello world

    I recently changed my primary Gmail account on my blackberry (from [email protected] to [email protected]).

    I have a problem with sync'ing with my address book.

    All of my old contacts are synchronized via [email protected]

    And now, I would have them Sync with [email protected]

    In every Contact form, I discovered there is a synchronization field to aid which is filled with the google account. Unfortunately, you cannot change this field.

    Y at - it an easy and fast way to mass - change (the field sync using) all my old contacts sync with my new gmail account?

    I tried with importers and exporters of gmail to gmail, but I lose my contacts photos. I cannot accept this solution because I have more than 500 contacts and 90% of them have an image.

    So I'm asking if someone has an idea to solve this problem.

    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for your reply.

    But I decided I'm going to do it by hand and transfer between gmail via vcf file transfer account.

    It's a real pain in the * because I know that have to redo all the links between linkedin/facebook and my address book. And also photos of contacts. It would have been very happy to be able to mass change the field "to sync using"

    There is therefore no real solution to solve my problem except to waste a lot of time by hand.

    But I'll post another topic for a question than a problem with the synchronization of contacts and photos

  • 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.

  • JavaScript how to get / change the field (object) TYPE (no access or mandatory)?

    Hello

    This script could help show how to get the type of field.  I'm reasonably show that he originally site of Stefan Cameron, http://forms.stefcameron.com/, but can not find it now.  Basically if you have a 'field' then ui.oneOfChild.className will give you the type of field.

    I don't think you'll have a chance to change the field type.  I think that you need to have all the field types you want on the form and that they are visible when necessary.

  • Number of decimal places in the recorded data

    Hello world

  • Number of decimal places in Write Back

    Hi all

    We use the writeback option ERPi/FDMEE to rewrite data in Oracle EBS12. Everything works correctly, but when extracting data from Hyperion FDMEE takes data in 7-8 decimal places. Is it possible for this round to 2 decimal places when exporting data?

    What version of FDMEE?

    When the data is written back to the LES, it is actually extracted using a view.

    For EBS, there is a view named AIF_EBS_GL_INTERFACE_V, where you can find the SQL code to extract data from FDMEE

    You can try to change this view to include a ROUND for the column amount:

    How to do?

    the browser does not use a single field.

    (popupscreens did not stay in the Middle, with a border and an ok button)

  • Change the field values of multiple text searching a word/words in their name.

    Hello

    So in my document, I load all the text fields roughly the same name than just with slight variations in their name.

    For example:

    FldTxt

    FldTxt1

    P1. TemplateName.FldTxt

    P1. TemplateName.FldTxt1

    ... Etc.

    The way this works is that each individual text box represents a parameter for a single element, so in this case there are 4 products.

    Is the way in which these parameters are selected, the user presses a button that generates a copy of a template page.

    On this page are a group of checkboxes, buttons and drop-down lists, these particular text fields display the value of a drop-down list.

    This is so that when the user has finished with the generated page, it can be removed and all the information is stored on the main page for later in the process.

    Because of how the elements of work means that fields can either displays a 'None selected' or option selected, BUT they cannot stand by the option that was selected.

    For example;

    FldTxt "none".

    FldTxt1 "selected Option2.

    P1. TemplateName.FldTxt "selected Option2.

    P1. TemplateName.FldTxt 'None Selected '.

    I hope this explains the theory behind it.

    So I wonder is what I could put these text fields values by searching for a keyword in their name? For example. If the field has "FldTxt" in its name, and its value is not equal to "None Selected", change its value to the value of the drop-down list of the most recent.

    The reason why I want to do it in this way is because there is no predefined number of these text fields, there might be only 2 or 200 because it depends on the number of items in the form.

    So I imagine it would go something like this;

    for (var i=0; i<this.numFields; i++) {
        var f = this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(i));
        var nameSearch = //search for keywords in a field name
        var dropdown = //the name of the dropdown
        if (f.nameSearch == "FldTxt" && if f.type = "textfield") {
            if (f.value !== "None Selected") {
                f.nameSeach.value = dropdown.value;
    

    My apologies if the syntax is incorrect or even impossible, but I don't know exactly what I'm asking check I just know what would be the outcome.

    I know that we can search for words in a document so I wonder if it is possible for domain names

    Your code is not quite correct. If I understand this code should do the trick (you may need to adjust the names of fields and values, however):

    var nameSearch = "FldTxt";
    var dropdown = this.getField("Dropdown").value;
