Creation of dynamic form field?  Maybe...

• Company Logo Image dynamic form fields

  Hello world

  I designed a dynamic form of livecycle with fields for users. In this form, I want to insert an image field in the upper left corner of the page so that users can simply add their logo to business here. I have some doubts and need some clarification on a few issues I don't know how to:

  (1) I realize that I have to use the 'Field of the Image' object so that users to import the image of the logo of their computer. It's pretty simple. However, is it possible for me to add a default image in this area which says something like "Add your logo here" and I want this default image to not display on the screen only and not in print if the user has not inserted his own logo? Is there a way to do this?

  I had a quick glance and I couldn't find anything that can answer that for me. I was thinking about it and what I've done so far is, I added another 'Image' object in the same place and I added the photo "Add your logo here" in this area. I then put his presence '(screen only) Visible' and place this object located behind the object from 'field of the Image. Bascially as long as it does not, if the user adds a logo using the field of the image, this image overlaps the 'image' object that lies behind all this. What is the right way to do it? Or y at - it another simpler way to do this?

  If what I did above is the only option, then I see that there are some limitations to it. Let me explain... Lets say that the image in the 'Image' object are the size of 2 inches wide X 1 in height. Yes, if the user places an image of the logo using the "field of view" object above that, and if the size of the logo of the user is smaller than the image on the ground at the back (let's say the user logo is only 1 in. X 1 in. height width), then when the logo image overlaps the excess width of the image behind appears and it looks bad on screen. Hope this makes sense... Wondering if there is a way around this? I use 'Fit the picture proportionally' instead of 'Scale to fit Rectangle Image' for the image field object.

  (2) another thing is, once the user inserts an image using the "Image object" field, is it possible for the user to delete this image if the user subsequently changed his mind and does not want to add a logo to it? Do I need to add a button so that users to erase the images they have added to the image field object? If so, can someone help me with the jscript for this?

  Thanks to everyone who took their time to read... Looking forward for your answer...

  Hello world

  Just an update regarding my Question 1 above:

  I struck out my old idea of placing an object image behind the object of field of view etc... etc... to show a hidden default image for logo insertion. Instead, what I've done is now, I only use the Image field object and have incorporated the image of 'Insert here the Logo' by default for this field. Beside that, I added the button 'Clear Logo' that basically clears the image in the image field. So here, if users add their logo, they simply click on this object and add their logo that will replace the default image in it. Or, if the user does not want to add any logo, they need to click on the button "Erase Logo" to rid the default image. I think it's probably better than the other method than I thought before. The only thing here is, I have to make sure that users are aware that they need to press the button 'Clear the Logo' if they want to erase the default image, otherwise it will eventually print as well.

  If anyone has any suggestions or do the same thing differently, please inform me.

  Thank you...

• Acrobat XI - preventing the creation of automatic form field

  How can I stop Acrobat XI automatically creating form fields interactive when I convert a document existing (pdf) form.  I know that I can delete them manually, but I convert custom documents several times a day and I want to eliminate extra steps to remove fields that I don't need.

  You should be able to open the PDF file, select ' tools > forms > edit ' and when you are prompted to have Acrobat automatically detects form fields, answer No you will then be in the form of editing mode where you can add them manually.

• Please help with dynamic form field names in cfloop

  Hello

  I need to create a form with day, date, month, year and time for 12 months

  Instead of coding them 12 times, I create fileds day, date, month, year and hour in my form 1 time, then I use cfloop from = "1" to "12" = index = 'i' to these fields in form loop 12 times.

  I gave each form field name such as: < input type = "text" name = "' ScheduleDate_ # I #" value ="" > this way, each of these fields will be named differently: ""

  ScheduleDate_1, ScheduleDate_2, ScheduleDate_3, ScheduleTime_1, ScheduleTime_2, etc.

  I am facing problem when this form is sent, I think that the error has something to do with the number sign (#) when it comes to update the back-end

  I use MS SQL

  He doesn't like this:

  < CFLOOP From="1" To="12" index="k">

  < CFIF Len(Trim(Form.MeetYear_#k#)) NEQ 0 AND Len(Trim(Form.MeetTime_#k#)) NEQ 0>

  < cfquery name ='CreateSchedule' datasource =' #DSN # '>

  UPDATE TableSchedule

  The VALUE SchedDay = < cfqueryparam cfsqltype ="cf_sql_varchar" value ='#form. SchedDay_ # k'>.

  SchedMonth =

  < cfqueryparam cfsqltype ="cf_sql_varchar" value =' #form. . "AnnMonth_ # k '>.

  SchedDate =

  < cfqueryparam cfsqltype ="cf_sql_varchar" value =' #form. . "SchedDate_ # k '>.

  Où SchedId = < cfqueryparam cfsqltype ='cf_sql_numeric' value =' #k # '>

  < / cfquery >

  < / CFLOOP >

  Can anyone help please?

  You cannot nest sharps. Do this instead:

  SET SchedDay =

• The image by mistake of dynamic form field

  With the help of the forums, I created the attached PDF form.  The file works exactly as I need to, except when he is rescued and re open it.  The image move and realign fields not until the button of ' + '.  I know there are limits to the dynamic and updated forms in form but there must be a solution.

  Any ideas?

  The form is at the following link.

• How to make dynamic form fields updated?

  This is going to be an ugly post, just be careful! :)
  
  I have a form that retrieves his labels and text input field names dynamically from a database. Rather than having the form hardcoded, we are able to add new columns to a table and the form automatically adds the new labels and fields via CFQUERY.
  
  When the form is completed and submitted (post method), the database is supposed to be updated. However, because our names of input fields are populated through query, we can not write a query to update static when we add new elements of form.
  
  So, I have a solution to this (in my head), but I'm stuck in a bit of logic and can't get it in the code. I'm looking for a way to write FORM #. # fieldname # (here is where it gets ugly). Because the form sent by the post method, I find myself with a bunch of FORM.fieldname on my action page (and fieldname is generic for what are real variables).
  
  So here's how I am update:
  I have a table (let's call it table1) that contains a column of all the column names in the data table (table2). This table is used for query purposes only, no data is updated here of the form.
  I have a table1 request to call all the column names in table2.
  < cquery datasource = "exdb" name = "exname" >
  SELECT ColumnName
  FROM table1
  < / cfquery >
  Then I write the update query that will update the elements they are loop using CFOUTPUT:
  < CFOUTPUT QUERY = "exname" >
  < cfquery datasource = "exdb" name = "exupdate" >
  UPDATE table2
  SET #columnName # = #FORM. < columnName > #.
  WHERE itemID = #FORM.itemID #.
  
  It's my dilemma. As you can see, the cfoutput is a loop... So we will take the first element in the loop, call him 'name1 '. So our query update said SET name1 = #FORM.name1 #, and it will update the table with what was presented in the entry for name1 field. The cfoutput to loop again, this time it's of name2. SET name2 = #FORM.name2 #. Now, the form includes a hidden itemID to specify where the table should be updated, as you can see above. So, now that you see how it works, my problem is to get #FORM. < columnName > # FORM.name1, FORM.name2, etc.
  In Coldfusion, you would write #FORM.variable # to call a FORM element. However, given that the variable is not defined, and allows us to fill a request, we make SHAPE #. #variable # where #variable # must be resolved before #FORM. ___ #
  
  You are with me on this? This is very complex in the explanation, but if you need more information, I can provide more clearly. I would like to know what you think. Really, I have the solution, but to FORM #. # columnName # to solve is another problem. I think what I need is to understand the order of operations for this statement, so #columnName # resolves first.

  You'll want to use the scope structure notation when dealing with your form variables. The Form.SomeVar variable can also be written as ['SomeVar']. Using this syntax, you can do something like this:

  UPDATE table2
  SET #columnName # = #FORM [columnName] #.
  WHERE itemID = #FORM.itemID #.

  You can also look on the following to help optimize your code:
  (1) learn how to use - it could speed up your code a bit.
  (2) according to the DB that you use, you may be able to combine all of your UPDATE within 1 SQL commands block. This will allow to do all your actions with 1 DB connection database, instead of a bunch (works in MSSQL, Oracle or MySQL, not sure)

• Dynamic form fields

  I am creating a form of the agenda that allows the user to add items to the agenda without setting me the predefined number of elements. Help.

  This type of functionality is possible in forms PDF created in LiveCycle Designer, not to those created using Acrobat (unless you use a model object to generate pages again if necessary).

• Dynamic/fluid form fields

  I'm working on a master called Performance assessment. It consist of 6 different tables. The original form was designed in Word 2003 and convert them to PDF using LiveCycle Designer ARE. My question is, my form fields continue to "fall off the page" when text fields are made with the data. I am also having a hard time to combine the tables that have been 'placed' on page 2 during the conversation from .doc to PDF. I can't do all the work of table together much less flow together to form the dynamic and interactive, I'd love to have. I want everyone to be able to write as they want in the comments section and keep everything together and create no white pages...

  I have attached the form so everyone can take a look. ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated. . I can do the fluid text field and pass them to a second page for forms / simple applications. This is when I add the table that the hierarchy becomes a problem.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated! Jenn

  This form would be much easier if you did not have the table structures. I suggest that you rebuild without tables. For those sections that you want to allow to develop dynamically ensures that they are in a subform was flowing and make sure that you click the expand to fit in it Y direction under the Layout tab.

• Deactivation of the borders on the form fields for printing

  Is it possible to disable the borders (or choose the color of 'None') on form fields when you print a form?  I had rather the only the data, but not the border areas, print.

  I had a quick glance to the XML source and I suspect it's possible, but I am a newbie of LC.

  Hello

  No problem! I'm just going through a number of things (you might already have these sorted, so please forgive me, but just in case where).

  You don't need to go near the Source XML, which is often (if at all). Sometimes, it is convenient if you want to change multiple occurrences of a string (with find and replace).

  First set up your work space, something like below.

  

  You need to open the panels (layout, object, border, police, paragraph hierarchy, Script Editor, etc.).

  I've implemented a "Recipientname" field and insert the script of pre-press. Note the drop-down menu events you can choose from. Also note that you can choose between two languages Javascript and Formcalc.

  

  It's the Script Editor, it is a very important interface, where you can insert the script to your form objects. You can access from the menu of the window (or by clicking Ctrl + Shift + F5). When you opened it, drag the lower bar to make a decent size to view and edit the script.

  The same approach is used to put the 'visible' script in the postPrint event.

  All this is done from the main creation of LC mode, without touching the XML source itself. What you're trying to achieve here requires access to the deep level of the object properties. For the 'normal' for an object script, you shouldn't have the fully resolved name. For example:

  recipientName.rawValue = "Niall";

  I recommend that you consider carefully where you place the script (in which event), the help file, forums and talk about books on this topic in detail.

  

  One last point, when you expand your form (such as one that has a dynamic content), then you must save your file to PDF dynamic. You can set in the properties of the form / default settings (on the file menu) dialog. Otherwise the dynamic content won't work.

  For what is is worth, I'll upload the PDF file with the only object inside. It may take a little time to pass through. If you use this technique, remember that the properties of the user interface of the various objects are accessible using different layouts. See the help file:

  

  Hope this helps,

  Niall

• You can edit a document template in your library (pdf) and retrieve previous form fields, so you don't have to start from scratch?

  I've just uploaded a pdf template in my library and spent a lot of time to fill the form fields. However, after completing the achievement, I made a misspelling on the original pdf model uplaoded. Is there a quick way to upload the document again and copy the older form of the document field so that I don't have to start from scratch?  If someone is able to inform you that would be much appreciated.

  Only if you checked create layer for the form field option when you create the document in the library. (Available only in the accounts of end superiors so that you won't)

  If you have Adobe Acrobat you can add fields from the agreement to the PDF outside eSign services.

  Or if you are using word documents, it is possible to add fields of the agreement using text tags.

  With those you can change regardless of the document and download the new copy and that the fields are already there, no need to copy or redo them.

• How to save a form that was created in a dynamic form with expandable files?

  I created a dynamic PDF form with expandable fields, etc. As is to be accessible to clients to complete, how can they save a copy duly completed on their own PC?

  I tried it myself and I get an error msg stating that I can only record a copy of this form: data entered in this form will not be saved. Adobe Reader can only save a copy of the form.

  How can I create a dynamic form (with a provision repeating fields/fluid etc.) which allows the applicant to not only complete the form but also to save a completed copy?

  you need to add save rights to your form with Acrobat.

  Free you can form in Acrobat and then record it using file > save as other > Reader Extended PDF > activate tools more.

• Theme 25 - the duplication of form fields

  Hi Vikas

  Apex 4.2 see https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=69432:68

  Very old application, topic 10, upgrade to Version 4.2, theme 25.

  Abandoning the theme 10 Finally? Or maybe not, how it will ;-)

  See how the form fields overlap? Why is this? All fields are set to start in a new span of column, Col = 1, column = automatic, alignment of the label = above.

  The columns in the grid of the page are too narrow (72px) to account for the width of the items. Change the grid options in the page template to use less/more wide columns or change the attributes of the element for the items cover more than 1 column (put in page 2-column seems OK...)

• When to convert a flat PDF form using "create a form" fields are detected but there is no applied blue on-screen fillable form field.

  Hi all

  Use Adobe Acrobat Pro XI.  To aid in the creation of a shape (according to the provided tutorials) tool, I have a problem converting a flat PDF form in a form to fill out.

  The conversion process can detect all relevant domain names, but the blue screen fillable form fields do not appear. Even if I click on highlight the existing fields...

  I checked the safety of the original document and all the permissions are granted.

  Any advice would be very happy.

  Thank you

  Doug

  What has happened is the form wizard created fields in a place that is out of the page. I don't know why he did this, but is done sometimes. What you can do to see them is to set the zoom to about 25%. In the case of your form, they are above the top of the page. You can still select all, cut, and paste them, which should place them on the page. You will then need to reposition.

• Query of the police in dynamic text fields (livecycle ES3)

  Hi all, is it possible to configure a dynamic form (livecycle ES3) to allow the user to enter the normal two (by default) AND a bold font in a text field? In addition, if different color font were to insist on a point - is it possible? Enjoy cany help in this matter. Thank you

  Yes to bold, but I don't think (unless someone can correct me) on the highlight. For the bold, you first have to change the Format of field in the window object library. Once that is then activated in the two player (if you extend the right permissions) and in Acrobat, you can select the text that you want, right-click on it, go to 'Text Style' and then change the font of the selected text only for "BOLD". I put some screenshots below of what it will look like. Derivative is a different beast in Adobe. Specific text highlighting is not an option that allows Adobe and Livecycle, I don't know if there is a way to let a user highlight specific text in a field. If you try to use the method to highlight in Acrobat or Reader, it will prompt you to created a printed version. You can select the entire field itself with a few JS Livecycle, but the text are not specific.

  

• Show/hide form fields

  Thanks in advance for your help. I work with a form that contains calculated fields. The calculated field is formatted for currency, so it contains the "$0.00" in the field automatically. Customers can also print the form and fill it out by hand, so the "$0.00" is a nuisance. Is it possible that I can hide the calculated field, unless the user has actually enters data fields to be calculated? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

  The United States of the monetary symbol does not authorize the removal of the display of zero with a string NULL. So you can either set the fields do not use the currency symbol or dynamically change field with JavaScript format.

  For the validation script, use the following code:

  validation code custom;

  var cCurrency = ""; Disable the currency symbol;

  If (event.value! = 0) {}

  Event.Value = event.value;

  currency symbol set at USD

  cCurrency = ' $';

  } else {}

  value zero set value of field to null

  Event.Value = "";

  }

  Set the format with or without currency symbol field.

  AFNumber_Format (2, 0, 0, "", cCurrency, true);

  Code of end of validation custom;

  The number of decimal places is supposed to be 2.

  The form will need to be cleared or perform a calculation for calculated fields will be updated and the validation script will be executed before we see the results of this change.
