Development of cursor in the first form field

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro XI.  How can I make the cursor appears in the first form field when the document is opened?

Let's say that the field is called "Text1". Go to tools - JavaScript - Document JavaScripts and add a new script (call it "load") with this code:

this.getField("Text1").setFocus ();

Click OK, save the file and you're done.

  • First form field will not click

    Hi. I build my first form and for some reason the first form field does not allow the user to click in it to type. If you press the tab key, it will highlight the area and allow to type.

  • Fill with initial of the first name field?

    https://DL.dropbox.com/u/78503370/AFBS_IntakeAssesment_052912_STESTV3.PDF

    Hello! I'm only a graphics person, and I am just with simple scripts. I'm trying to shoot only the first initial of the PatientName_First field and have it fill in the PatientName_Initial field in the master page so that the initials of the patient will be displayed on each page of the form.

    Please do not die of laughing at my attempt to Frankenstein a script from another form in this one, I really know anything yet, but I'm learning. I was not yet able to make JavaScript work - had more success with FormCalc.

    I don't know if that's a problem, but the form must remain static. iPad can not yet read dynamic forms, and I must be compatible iPad.

    Thanks much for any help!

    Here you go:

    1. remove all the code in the event of 'change' for the PatientName_First field.  This event fires on each typed character, and in this case, you don't need to trap all the characters.

    2. Add the following code to the event "exit" to PatientName_First:

    If (this.rawValue! == null)

    this.rawValue = this.rawValue.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,""); "

    The foregoing will be trim spaces attack/flight of the first name field, which was what you expected and are a good idea.  Place in means of output event happen only once the user has finished typing the name and tabs out of the field.

    3. change the name of the subform that retains information name of 'PatientDemographics '.  Naming of the subforms in the hierarchy is recommended because it makes their SEO in the script easier.  See the screenshot below.

    4. Add the following code to the event of 'calculate' to the PatientName_Initial field in the master page:

    initial var = form1. PatientDemographics.PatientName_First.rawValue;

    If (initial! == null) {}

    If (initial.length > 0) {}

    this.rawValue = initial.substr (0, 1);

    }

    }

    When the name is in the main form, the calculate event fires and the script will be executed. The script will be the first name that was entered and set the initial field to the first character in the name.  Check the name = null is important because the calculate event fires when the form is opened first, before whatever it is entered.  We check to make sure there is at least one character in the first name field before trying out the first character.

    There is no need to use a dynamic form to do this, so it should work on an iPad.  Unfortunately, I can't test that.

    See you soon,.

  • Move from one field to the other and to validate the response to the first text field automatically

    I have a problem I want to know if someone could help me with.

    I have a dynamic text box called help_txt and I have some initial instructions in order to achieve the first text field with relevant information.

    Selection.setFocus (prCv1_txt);
    Selection.setSelection (1, 0);

    The focus is already set at the beginning of the first text field, which has 2 characters maximum indicated. It is also a text entry field.

    The right answer for prCv1, which is the variable, is 01.

    If the user types 01, I want the following to happen:

    cursor automatically advances to the next text field, which is called groupNo1_txt and I want another message to display the correct information in the field of help_txt, such as the type in the next field.

    If the user does not type 01, I want the following to happen:

    cursor goes back to position 1 of the prCV1_txt text box and another message to display in the field help_txt, by mistake, please enter 01 in this area.

    Initially, I got the code to check if the user pressed the Tab key, but the error message for the 2nd text box automatically displays do not give the user the ability to type information in the second text field (groupNo1_txt).

    Can someone help me please!

    If you need me to attach a file, I can do.

    Thank you...

    Use a conditional in the onChanged function that tests first to see if the entry is at the correct number of characters...

    If (prCv1_txt.length > 1) {}

    If (prCv1_txt.text == "01") {}

    Disable prCv1_txt, select groupNo1_txt

    } else {}

    Msg error and/or reboot

    }

    }

  • How to get the cursor to the first line after the addition of 3 rows in the OPS. Help, please.

    Hi Experts,

    I have a requirement to get the cursor should point to the first line instead of pointing to the third row. To the help of code below, my cursor points to the third row. Please put some light on it to reach the requirement

    XXCLKTestVOImpl vo = getXXCLKTestVO1();

    for (int i = 0; i < 3; i ++) {}

    Line = vo.createRow ();

    vo.insertRow (row);

    row.setNewRowState (Row.STATUS_INITIALIZED);

    }

    Thank you

    Gurnur Singh

    Problem is solved. Since then, I've been on 12.2.4 Ebs version and was auto insert false setting in AddtablerowBean. To reach the requirement, you will need to refer to the same number of lines to add the addtablerowbean property that you use in loop for. here I use 3 looping so you must use the number 3 lines to add the addtablerowbean property to get there. So whenever you add three rows then cursor in the first row of three lines you will add. Thank you all.

    Thank you

    Try this:






    -You don't have to include this if the only possible values are 1 and 2.

  • How can I get the filtered data from the first form

    How can I get the filtered data from the first form in a second form to make an update of the multi.
    Thank you very much

    William,

    I would use for this collections. A link is good if you need to pass a single value.

    1. create a collection
    2 fill the collection with your result set
    3. go in the page target and uses a method of a query in your link to this page
    4. your target page receives a request and allows you to edit documents.

  • Validation of the necessary form, scroll to the first error field

    Hello team Adobe Muse,

    I designed a form and it worked fine now, I need to show the user where he missed the field by scrolling to the field that he kept it empty or incorrect.

    I hope that can be done by the muse herself or if you can advise me with additional code I can put in the page if this can work.

    Thank you in advance and I hope that I was clear in my question

    Khalil

    Not that I know. The standard forms widget can't stand all this. There may be something more advanced there, but generally, the validation is delicate and may require a lot of manual JavaScript hacking.

  • Is it possible to create a PDF file that will add and subtract in the same form field?

    I design a pdf form to fill out for a friend in need as an invoice. He wants to add each element of cost that happening automatically and I got including but now he wants to be able to subtract an element if necessary and I am lost as to how to get the correct code. Is this possible?

    So let's say that you have called Item1, Item2, Item3, and discount fields and you want to add the first 3 and then subtract the fourth total (sub).

    You can use the simplified field Notation on the calculation of your total field tab and enter the following in it:

    (Item1, Item2 and Item3) - Discount

    If the field names are more complex then a custom calculation script may be used instead:

    event.value = (Number(this.getField("Item1").value) + Number(this.getField("Item2").value) + Number(this.getField("Item3").value)) - Number(this.getField("Discount").value);

    The answer is in two parts:

    First Ministry field password password in field properties so it does not display the chopped character. Md5 is a way - you can't decrypt encrypt only. Thus, the user can enter a new password on the old.

    Second part; Copy the following code: GetSQLValueString (md5($_POST['password']), 'text'), to encrypt the text field.

    I found this by Googleing for the use of md5 and update forms...

  • How to protect the edit form field text

    Hi - I use Acrobat 9 Pro Extended Windows.  I created a form; in the date field, I need the day to display when the form is activated first (open).  The form is sent to the additional workers, I need to stay in the field of the form and not change the date.  I was able to get the current date to display on the logon form, but each of the following to open the form changes the date.  I even saved a completed form (after you complete the form in Reader) but when he opened subsequently, it changed to the current date.  I'd appreciate any help.

    Thank you.

    Yes, you can use this:

    var currentDate = this.getField("Today").value;

    If (' currentDate == null | currentDate == "") {}

    var f = this.getField ("Today");

    f.Value = util.printd ("mm/dd/yyyy", newDate());

    }

    You must manually clear the field, make it read-only and then save

    file and close it.

    The next time that you open it, the field must be filled.

  • Problem from hidden using the Flash form fields

  • Automatic scrolling of text possible in combination with the text form field

    Hello

    We would like to know if it is possible to align the text automatically with a form field that can contain different amounts of characters.

    For example:

    We have a form with a text field for currency at the end of a paragraph of text. The period to mark the end of the sentence should always be printed just behind the currency field. For now, the comma character has a fixed place, just outside the scope of the currency field. It doesn't look good when the currency field contains only 2 characters (due to the white space).

    Is there a solution to this problem?

    Thank you.

    It is only possible if the time text is also part of a text field, preferably the same one. You can use a format or script validation to automatically add this custom text to text from the user, assuming that it is a fixed value or you can know in advance. If it is a value entered by the user, then it becomes almost impossible to do it gently.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro DC - character spacing in the text form field

    Hi all

    We are creating a form that contains a part of money transfer.

    This form will be printed on preprinted paper that contains special rectangle fields for the characters (f.e. a bank account number = > IBAN).

    Each character must match their respective rectangle.

    Because of the spacing between the rectangles, we must be able to increase the spacing between characters, but it seems that it is not possible for the text to form fields in Adobe Acrobat Pro ms? We looked everywhere, but we can't seem to find it.

    We missed something? Otherwise: are there other options to solve our problem?
