drop-down list or a list with index
I have a few drop-down menus with a large number of options (100 +), for example a selection of countries.
Other platforms offer a clue, similar to the native contact app where you can select a letter on the right side to reach a certain letter.
Does anyone have code that does something similar, or saw a sample like this?
I think currently on the use of a button that triggers a ControlDelegate with a ListView, perhaps with a search field to filter the items.
I don't know how to implement the index hovering well. Any ideas?
Not as fancy as the contacts application and the letter list scrolls as well and has no popup, but it works well.
I used two views of list in a DockLayout, one for the main content, the other for the index.
In the event onTouch I compare the item touched with headers in main list

Populating drop-down list with SQL
I have a database and I want to fill the drop-down list with a 'Group By' request to show the various categories without showing many of the same. Here's the code I'm having difficult with:
DropDown { id: filterSelect visible: true enabled: {if (purchaseValue != false){false}} bottomPadding: 20 title: qsTr("Category:") + Retranslate.onLanguageChanged horizontalAlignment: HorizontalAlignment.Center options: Option { id: allOption text: qsTr("All") + Retranslate.onLanguageChanged selected: true } onSelectedOptionChanged: { if(filterSelect.selectedOption == allOption){ _app.refreshObjects() } else{ dataSource.query = "select * from items where categoryfield LIKE '%"+ filterSelect.selectedOption.text+"%'"} } attachedObjects: [ ComponentDefinition { id: optionFactory Option { } } ] onCreationCompleted: { // "select categoryfield from items group by categoryfield" var newOption = optionFactory.createObject() newOption.text = 'Text to add' // or a variable fetched from data source //newOption.otherfields = ... filterSelect.add(newOption); } }
I have a data source that fills the listview, I want to use the same database to populate the drop-down list. How should I go about this? I tried to configure a different DataSource {} just for the dropdown menu, but I couldn't make it work. In bold text, I am not clear as where I incorporate my SQL query against the newOption.text =
TL; DR I try to use a SQL query to fill my menu drop-down using the same PB that is used for the listview.

A friend by the name of Roger Leblanc http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/vendor/70290/?lang=en&countrycode=CA helped me and created a small code example to explain how it works.

I have a drop down list with categories, how to close the categories?
Hello
I created the drop-down list categories and in each line, I'll choose a category in the menu dropdown. How to add each category?
It's the number 3.6.1 (2566), El Capitan
That is to say.
gas
meal
Rental
I want to make the sum of all the lines that are "gas"?
Use a drop-down menu the right way to do it?
Thank you
Edwin
Hi Edwin,.
Take a look at the personal Budget template in the template chooser > personal finance.
SUMIF formulas are in the Budget sheet > summary by the table of categories > column C.
The drop-down Menus (called context Menus in numbers) are in the leaf of Transactions > column C.
Make sure spelling is accurate, or numbers will not find a match.
Please call with questions.
Kind regards
Ian.

How to make the menu drop-down list with a scroll bar
Hello
I have a drop-down list that is filled with different table sizes.
I have a size of 30-element array. Some of the last items just go off the screen at the bottom of the Simulator PB.
Is it possible for me to add a drop-down scroll bar?
DP = new DropDown();
dp.rowHeight = 24;
DP.prompt = "stuff";
DP. Height = 34;
DP.width = 230;
DP.x = TitleTB.x + 170;
DP.y = Title.y-3;
addChild (dp);Some of the tables look like this-
case 'List 1':
dp.rowCount = 2;
for (var i: int = 0; i<2;>2;>
{
if(i==0)
{
DPP.splice (0);
DPP.unshift({label:"blahblah"});)
}
else if (i == 1) {}
DPP.unshift({label:"foofoo"});)
}
}
dp.dataProvider = new DataProvider (dpp);
addChild (dp);
break;case "List2":
dp.rowCount = 30;
for (var n: int = 0; n<30;>30;>
{
if(n==0)
{
DPP.splice (0);
DPP.unshift({label:"lalalala"});)
}
Else if (n == 1) {}**********
Delete the existing table using splice (0);
then I add the new array of labels.
Before, when I didn't have the splice (0), I only had the .unshift () and sometimes got bays combined together and a scroll bar appears automatically in the Simulator. But then the berries were mixed.
Thanks for the help!
Hey mlin13,
from the looks of it, your property rowCount is set too high. the rowCount property represents the number of lines displayed on the screen when the drop down menu is open. so if the number of rows is less than the amount of items on the list, it will create a scroll bar with a drop-down list for you. try to set the number of lines to a default value of 10 and and keep it manipulate your list from there. and see if you get the desired results. Good luck!

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: 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.

Drop-down list with values outside field
I tried to find how to feed external values to a field of ASD form drop-down list. It is not clear how we can link/partner an external source to the field.
There is an article on how to regularly fill with external values, but I'm after a search in real time (for example find meeting locations available)
Is this the values supported real-time search? If so, how can it be done?
Check this post where his clearly explained how to create action and associate it with the presentation.

Some way to make a drop-down list with dressing
I is it possible to make a drop-down list contains a long sentence and when you select the sentence, he trained actually phrase to encapsulate in a multi-line text box? I seem to be able to enter a fairly long series of words in the drop-down list, but when you make a selection of the text encapsulates not and the right edge of the field cost overruns. If this can be done is a way of pre-existing reference somewhere else comments hidden in the shape and align them on the field with the selection list?
I think that this is a limitation in the LC Designer. However, you get the sentence on mouse hover.

Populating a drop-down list with the entities
I do screens, and I would like the user to choose one of the various entity instances 'establishment' as their institution in a zone drop-down list.
I know I could do this statically simply adding values in the list in the screen of the issue, or by putting values into a file .xml and power OPA the name of the .xml file.
I want to do, however, is to have this drop drop-down filled running with features created by the user running (collected on a previous screen). I think there is no way to do so; am I missing something?This can be done quite easily using a plugin from list provider.

Prepopulate the drop-down lists with xml file
Hello world
I'm trying to prepopulate a dropdown list using an xml file. There are many tutorials on the internet that allows me to do from the overview of the Designer tab. However, when I did it worked well, but I am not able to 'embed' the xml file so that the values appear in the workspace when the user starts a process.
I tried to load the xml file with the contents of resource reading in the action profile of the first task and put the result in the "xmlPrepareData" but the problem is that I can't put all the values of the xmlPrepareData after because the xml model is not exactly the one used by LiveCycle.
Any thoughts? Someone is already managed to prepopulate a dropdown list with an XML within the process?
Kind regards
Thomas
OK gr8...
Assuming you're able to get the XML process LC to your XDP/PDF form field.
You can fix the XML from the drop-down under-
clear the drop-down list box
* DROPDOWN_Field.clearItems ();choiceList = XMLData.parse (* XML_Field.rawValue, false);
divide the choiceList in an array of values
choice = choiceList.resolveNodes("root.element[*].*NODENAME");
var numchoices = choices.length;
Adds an array of values in drop-down list
for (var i = 0; i)< numchoices;="">{
* DROPDOWN_Field.addItem (choices.item (i) .value);
}* DROPDOWN_Field - is your field drop-down list.
* XML_Field - is your XML data stored in a TextField.
* NODENAME - is the name of the node in your XML to solve.
I hope that Hepls...

Several drop-down lists with the same content
Hello my friends, I have several drop-down lists that are the same in content, I've added them all to each list drop-down I (30 PC), but now the size of the file becomes too large, so I was wondering is it possible to make only 1 from the list and use it in all my dropdowns?
Specify: the list is only-text strings, nothing more. And the list should also be inside the shape (no external database)
Help much appreciated, thanks: =)
Alrighty then. The forum let me download files right now, so here's what to do using your example:
- In the hierarchy of the shape, right-click on the object 'form1' and select 'insert a Script object"in the menu.
- Rename the new object of script to 'Scripts '.
- Paste the following code in the Scripts object (it will not be an event to select):
var ProductArray = new Array)
"Product1 | 0127481 | 4 pcs | 1. 27,10 ",
"Leader2 | 0127482 | 5 parts | 2. 28,20 ",
"Product3 | 0127483 | 6 pcs | 3. 29,30 "
);
function PopulateProductDropdown (ddlList)
{
var numProducts = ProductArray.length;
for (cnt var = 0; cnt)< numproducts;="" cnt++="">
{
ddlList.addItem (ProductArray [cnt]);
}
}
4. in each of the drop-down list object Initialize event, paste the following code:
Form1.variables.scripts.PopulateProductDropdown this);
That's all. You won't need to add list items to each of the drop-down list object, and you can remove those who came to see the first drop-down list. Add all new products at ProductArray, by following the syntax of those here. Make sure that you don't have a comma after the last one in the table.

I have a drop down list with numbers refrence and show the hidden sub
I have a form that has a drop down menu that has several numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6. I also have a subform hidden with the information that I need to post, so if they want 2 I need 2 instances of this subform to show. If they choose 3 I need 3 instances of this subform to apear. ECT... I have all text flowed and the West.
Ok. In this case you must first define the instance of the subform, and then you will need to loop through all instances and make these visible subforms.
In the change event of the DropDownList control, you can put the following script.
var a = xfa.event.newText; This will capture the value in the case of change, if you want the script to the event exit you have
AreadDoorMF.instanceManager.setInstances (a); to make it in the var a this.rawValue
{
xfa.resolveNode ("AreaDoorDF [" + i + "]"). DF.presence = "visible";
xfa.resolveNode ("AreaDoorDF [" + i + "]"). DF. Header.Presence = "visible";
}
Sorry I just setInstance instead of setInstances
Thank you

Cascading drop-down list with required validation
Hi again,
I use JDeveloper 11.1.1.6. Basically, I need to set up a selectOneChoice cascade of three levels (A, B, C). This means that, at the beginning, the first level is the only with values.
When I select an option of A, B gets filled and what selection B, C is met. The problem is that A, B, C are mandatory and they can not be null. While you might be guessing when I select a single choice, validation triggers b and C because they are required.
I went out with this partial solution:
{} public void valueChangeListenerForA (ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent)
ADFUtils.setValueToEL ("#{bindings.") (A.inputValue}", valueChangeEvent.getNewValue ());
}
Validation triggers always but at least B and so on. I tried to put the fields as Immediate = true, but without success. I can't use (stupid requirement) the first element of the populated list. It must be null always at the beginning.
Is there a better option than you might suggest? I'd really appreciate whoYou can use an indicator for the property Required for the B and C and set to true in the valueChangeListener of A and B respectively. It of a workaround, but should meet your requirement.
Thank you
