Convert path text field

So I traced a shape. At one point, apparently, I accidentally clicked inside this shape with the text tool and transformed into a text field. I am now "cancellations" too far to go back. I would like to take this text field object and put it back in in a way that I can stroke and fill. In my layers palette, its marked as < type >. I tried a number of different copy, direct selection ideas and nothing has worked. How can I change this back?

Vinny,

DirectSelect the path itself next to Type Ctrl / Cmd + C + F and enjoy.

  • InDesign CC: Text in editable text fields in the process of disappearance after export

    Hello

    I'm having a problem of text of text editable in endangered fields after you export the document as an interactive pdf. I created the text that should be editable in acrobat with InDesign CC. Thus, for example, I want to have a field editable text that said "I am Marie." I want users to have the ability to change from "Married" to "Tom" or "Ben" in Acrobat. So the pdf should have a form of editable text, saying the phrase "I am Mary" when users open the PDF in Acrobat. However, aafter export, the remains of fields of text, but the text itself "I am Mary." disappeared. I do not understand why this is happening because the text is there when you preview in the Preview SWF window in InDesign.

    Here it is the list of steps in my work.


    STEP 1: Create some texts (for example, m with the tool text frame in InDesign CC )


    STEP 2: Click with the right button on the image and click on "Interactive > convert to text field»

    OR

    STEP 2: Select the block of text, open the window "buttons and forms" and change the type as "text field"


    STEP 3:  Export the document as an interactive pdf. The parameter is set by default.


    Result: When I open the PDF in Acrobat, the text field is there, but it is empty.


    Please help me solve this problem. I know this is possible because a person in front of me in my work.

    Thank you!

    As far as I know, to have a form pre-filled text [I am Marie] appear in the text field, you must set the default value of the text field in Acrobat. You can do this by selecting the field property > Options > Default Value

  • Insert the path to the file in the text field

    I'm creating a text tabled at the bottom of a form document that will automatically enter the path of the file (for example.

    this.rawValue = event.target.path.replace (event.target.documentFileName, "");

    I am a very novice programmer so I don't know if it's even close to right.

  • Convert the text of the text field

    For compatibility with other forms, I have a text field of digital data are concluded.  I however, would be to do a calculation out of this field, so therefore like to convert the number entered in this field to a numeric value instead of a text value.  Can someone explain to me how this is done?

    Thank you in advance!

    Depending on the type of number you want you would use parseInt or parseFloat in Javascript. So when it comes to your domain in the calculation (assuming it's called TextField1)

    Ditto var = parseFloat (TextField1.rawValue) + 123.45

    Make sense?

  • Text field variable in root cannot reside in a clip?

    I have a movie clip ("mod_control") that resides within other clips that determines the name of its parent and adds a number to a corresponding text field when they appear on stage (example: "Widget_1_count", "Widget_2_count", etc...)

    Using this code in the clip works very well:

    get the parent's name, example: "Widget_1."

    var this_part =. parent.name of the object (this);

    get the current value in the corresponding text field, example: "Widget_1_count."

    var c_this_part:Number = number (Object(root[this_part_+_"_count"]).text);

    Add 1 to the current value of the text field

    var v_this_part:Number = Number (c_this_part + 1);

    update the text field with the new value

    Object (root [this_part + "_count"]). Text = String (v_this_part)

    Finally, I have dozens of the text fields (for dozens of parts) so I now contain all in a movieclip with instance name 'part_count'.

    So I added part_count in the target path:

    var this_part =. parent.name of the object (this);

    var c_this_part:Number = number (Object(root__.part_count__[this_part_+_"_count"]).text);

    var v_this_part:Number = Number (c_this_part + 1);

    Object (root.part_count[this_part + "_count"]). Text = String (v_this_part)

    .. .but that produced this error:

    "Mod_control" symbol, lie "beneath", frame 1, line 201119: access of property may be undefined part_count through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.

    and then I tried this:

    var this_part =. parent.name of the object (this);

    var c_this_part:Number = number (Object (root [. part_count this_part + "_count"]) .text);

    var v_this_part:Number = Number (c_this_part + 1);

    Object (root [. part_count this_part + "_count"]) .text = String (v_this_part)

    .. .but that produced this error:

    "Mod_control" symbol, lie "beneath", frame 1, line 201120: access of undefined property part_count.

    As is often the case, I can remember an obvious shade of syntax..., could this be the situation here, or this action is simply impossible in flash?

    I appreciate the wealth of knowledge and experience here and I thank you in advance for giving my question thought.

    Thanks for the info, I used your suggestion:

    var this_part =. parent.name of the object (this);

    var c_this_part:Number = number (.text MovieClip (MovieClip (root) .part_count [this_part + "_count"]));

    var v_this_part:Number = Number (c_this_part + 1);

    MovieClip (MovieClip (root) .part_count [this_part + "_count"]) .text = String (v_this_part)

    And the film compiled correctly, but when I added an object on the stage (which triggers the code above) I got this error:

    TypeError: Error #1034: Type coercion failed: cannot convert flash.text::TextField@79cb351 to flash.display.MovieClip.

    at::mod_control_49/frame1() [IF_Config_38_fla.mod_control_49::frame1:27] IF_Config_38_fla

    What really made the tour, was casting the clips as objects:

    var this_part =. parent.name of the object (this);

    var c_this_part:Number = number (.text Object (object (root) .part_count [this_part + "_count"]));

    var v_this_part:Number = Number (c_this_part + 1);

    Object (object (root) .part_count [this_part + "_count"]) .text = String (v_this_part)

    Worked a treat!

    Incredibly confusing, I would like to know why it worked, but it does.

    Thanks again!

  • By assigning a value to a text field not working PHP/javascript?

    I have a site to someone else coded, where a text field does a value that is assigned.

    Both
    Form1.textfield3.value = form1.textfield1.value;
    and
    Form1.textfield3.value = "99";

    not work, and the field is left blank.

    This same code works on Internet Explore (Win and OSX), Safari, Chrome and Opera. It does NOT work on Firefox 8 or 9.01 (Win and OSX) or 3.6.25. He used to work on an older Firefox, we had (unknown version).

    JavaScript is enabled; is there anything else we can check?

    If you check the error in Firefox (Ctrl + Shift + j) Console, you will see "form1 is not defined. This is because Firefox converts automatically form1 in reference to < form = "form1" name >. Instead, you must change the code a bit.

    You can fix the above error starting each function where you refer to form1 with this:

    Form1 = return ["form1"] var;

    However, probably just move the error to the next part of the notation (for example, textfield3). The proper way to refer to the value of a form field named is:

    document. Forms ["Form1"]. Items ["textfield3"]. Value

    or if you have set form1,

    Form1.elements ['textfield3'] .value

    If you have a few changes to make. Not sure if there are shortcuts.

  • Text fields: multiline input

    I try to convert my office completely to a paperless process and we have several forms that sign sign/Echo Adobe was really helpful in setting up complete digitally. Then I came across a problem with text fields. I checked them for several lines of data entry as the forms require an open ended and sometimes long response, but there seems not to be a limit to the amount of text can be as long as sometimes it turns off completely impossible to see in the review page. This caused a major blocking upward in our transition and I was unable to find information particularly useful on how to solve this problem. I hope that it is a relatively simple solution that I am just ignorant to. Would much appreciate helpd!

    Use Adobe Pro DC to create your forms, he has the ability to limit the number of characters. Add field > double click the field > Option > check the box "limit of characters _ after you specify limited.

  • Subtraction of text field

    I have 3 text fields in a pdf document and I named each Adjustments_1, the Adjustments_2 and the Adjustments_3. I want equal to Adjustments_1 - Adjustments_2 Adjustments_3 and if this difference is less than 0, Adjustments_3 is equal to '0' and to have this difference displayed on text fields. I tried to do an if else statement in the custom in Adjustments_3 properties calculation script that looks like this:

    If (Adjustments_2 < Adjustments_1) {}

    Adjustments_3 = Adjustments_1-Adjustments_2;

    }

    else {}

    Adjustments_3 = '0 '.

    }

    My difference is always 0.00 for any value I'm trying, I wonder where I was wrong.

    You cannot access the value of a field by simply using the name of the field. The right way to get the value of a field is the following:

    this.getField("Adjustment_1").value
    

    Thus, to convert your calculation to this mechanism, by introducing also variable JavaScript, the script is as follows:

    var Adjustment_1 = this.getField("Adjustment_1").value;
    var Adjustment_2 = this.getField("Adjustment_2").value;
    var Adjustment_3;
    
    if (Adjustments_2 < Adjustments_1) {
        Adjustments_3=Adjustments_1-Adjustments_2;
    }
    else {
        Adjustments_3 = "0";
    }
    this.getField("Adjustment_3").value = Adjustment_3;
    

    As you can see, I left your intact script and created variables with names that you used, but either assigned these variables based on the value of the field, or assigned to the value of the field from the Adjustment_3 variable.

  • How to convert several text boxes to the checkboxes

    Nice day

    in the last months, we are working on Adobe Acrobat DC and we have the following problem when we create pdf forms.

    It is quite common for us to convert a Word format in PDF form. Then, we select 'Prepare form' in Adobe DC to insert/change/remove the created fields (text boxes, check boxes, etc.). During this conversion, there are fields that must be boxes instead of text boxes. In order to proceed, we all have remove them and then re-create them which takes a lot of time.

    Is there a feature that allows you to select several fields and move them from one type to another (for example, convert all text in checkboxes areas)?

    Concerning

    -C' is not correct. You can select specific fields to convert from a list or based on their name, the field type and the page.

    -Yes, it is compatible with all versions of Acrobat (probably not until version 7, though).

    -The rest exactly the same size.

    The settings that you should should work. I agree with sisham, to keep things simple and only put 5 in the first 2 fields, or your H will resemble each other.
