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.

  • 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: Drop-down list fill in multiple fields of text. 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.

  • Multiple drop-down lists using SetFieldValues mixture fields.

    I have 2 drop-down lists (Dropdown1 & Dropdown2). They are identicle except for their domain names and of their first element option.  When the user chooses an option, I want a predetermined value to be sent to a field of text (FeeAmountRow1 & FeeAmountRow2).  Similar to a purchase order using a drop down.

    By trial and error what I know is that somewhere my scripts are cross.  When I try the shape as the script below, the two drop-down lists send values in the same text instead of their respective field.  Removal of code in each menu drop-down makes the job of other fines.

    I made each of them 'value selected to validate immediately '.  I added the following Scripts of striking personalized to their format.

    Dropdown1 - text if field resets the default drop-down list option is selected, this feature works very well.

    if (event.willCommit) {
        if (event.value == "Select Day 1 Service Type") this.resetForm(["FeeAmountRow1"]);
        else SetFieldValues(event.value);
    }
    

    Dropdown2

    if (event.willCommit) {
        if (event.value == "Select Day 2 Service Type") this.resetForm(["FeeAmountRow2"]);
        else SetFieldValues(event.value);
    }
    

    I use the following script:

    // Dropdown option items data 
    var saData = {
        "Speaking Engagement": {
            fee: "1360.00"
        },
            "Field Ride Consultation": {
            fee: "1700.00"
        },
            "Speaker's Training": {
            fee: "1500.00"
        }
    };
    
    function SetFieldValues(saName) {
        // Populate fields with values
        this.getField("FeeAmountRow1").value = saData[saName].fee;
        this.getField("FeeAmountRow2").value = saData[saName].fee;
    }
    

    In the SetFieldValues function, it is exactly what the code does. He defined two different fields to the same value. Create a separate for each field feature individual rtext, or pass the name of the field as a parameter. For example:

    function SetFieldValues(f_name, saName) {
        // Populate fields with values
        this.getField(f_name).value = saData[saName].fee;
    }

    New script from typo to dropdown2
    if (event.willCommit) {
        if (event.value == "Select Day 2 Service Type") this.resetForm(["FeeAmountRow2"]);
        else SetFieldValues("FeeAmountRow2", event.value);
    }

  • Using drop-down list and the required fields

    I am trying to create a timesheet in Livecycle to replace the current form I have in Excel. I'm still a beginner w / LiveCycle and this is the first question I've had for some time. I have problems that require a field based on a choice.

    The timesheet is set up as follows:

    Timesheet Screenshot.png

    In my excel spreadsheet when you choose the project, the customer: job field in the same row turns red, indicating that it is now a required field. If you choose overhead, the explanation field on the same line turns red, indicating who's now is a required field. I want to do the same thing with this form (blushes) is actually make the field required, which is simpler.

    Can someone help me with this? I feel very lost. If it is not possible to change fields based on selections from drop down someone has any alternative suggestions? Any help is very appricated.

    You can do the following...
    Exit the drop-down list with JavaScript as a language event.

    If (DropDown1.rawValue == 'Project') {}
    Customer.Mandatory = 'error ';
    JobField.mandatory = 'error ';
    }

    You can replace the domain names with the actual names in your PDF.

    If you want to enable compulsory you set property "error."

    to disable you set the property to "disabled".

    Hi Praveen,

    You can add items to the list in a specific order, which would be to load the elements in an array, sorting and then load in the dropdown list drop-down list.  This would be in the click event of the button Add.

    Create a table to hold all the list items, table drop-down list contains objects with a property 'displayItem' and 'value '.

    dropDownItems var = [];

    Add the new

    dropDownItems.push ({displayItem: ItemName.rawValue, value: BoundValue.rawValue});

    Add existing ones

    for (var i = 0; i)< dropdownlist1.length;="">

    {

    dropDownItems.push ({displayItem: DropDownList1.getDisplayItem (i), value: DropDownList1.getSaveItem (i)})

    }

    Sort by ascending order of displayed text

    () dropDownItems.sort

    function (a, b)

    {

    If (a.displayItem< b.displayitem)="" return="">

    If (a.displayItem > b.displayItem) return 1;

    return 0;

    });

    clear all items

    DropDownList1.clearItems ();

    load the sorted items

  • How to get a selection of drop-down list to complete another field with nothing

    Hello

    I have a drop down menu that fills another field according to what is selected (as shown here where Admin mistakes fills the next field with 6735-10-01).

    Capture-1.JPG

    However, there are 3 items in the drop-down list that I don't want to fill in the other with (basically, it must be empty during one of these 3 elements are selected, in contrast to how it returns zero in the example below). I don't know what to put in for the values to make it white.

    Capture-2.JPG

    Please notify.

    Kind regards

    ZeroZone

    I don't know what your code looks like or where it is but you will need to add a conditional statement, such as:

    If (DropDown.rawValue == "0" | ") DropDown.rawValue == "1" / * | "" etc, etc, * /)

    TextField.rawValue = null;

    on the other

    TextField.rawValue = DropDown.rawValue;

  • JavaScript to set radio button choices using the drop-down list box value.

    I use Adobe Acrobat Pro DC version 2015.016.20039 on a MacBook Pro OS X El Capitan version 10.11.6.

    I have a set of named CitBox radio box choices. I'm defining what choice is selected from out of a drop-down list named AppCitizenship box.  Both of them have six choices with values of 1, 2, etc. (I thought having the same values would make easier the translation from one to the other). Thanks in advance.

    If you used the same values, then it is pretty easy. Just use this code as the validation script custom field drop-down list:

    this.getField("CitBox").value = event.value;

  • Value selected in the drop-down list, the value border and subform border color

    OK, I'm busy to create a form that has a field drop-down list. There are five values inside the drop-down list. I have also four subforms which contain tables and fields for each option in the drop-down list except the first. Now, I want to put the border and the color of the border of the subform if you have selected the correct value.

    As part of the output, I created the code as follows:

    If (this.rawValue == '5') {}

    this.resolveNode("TextfieldName").presence = "visible"; This affects a visible text... works like a charm

    Optie1.UI.oneOfChild.border.color.value = "255,153,0"; After an example I found Niall

    Optie1.UI.oneOfChild.border.color.thickness = "0,0200" in

    }

    I've changed this in Optie1, is the name of the subform. Somehow it is not applied in the subform. I know I'm wrong, but can't find what I want on the forums. Someone at - it an idea on that?

    Well, managed to resolve myself to play around with the code.

    It should be:

    Optie1.border.edge.color.value and Optie1.border.edge.thickness.

  • 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...

  • Demanding of the drop-down list in CFMX form fields

    Required form fields in Coldfusion MX 6 help with HTML forms for that I use the following method:

    -a hidden field that has a name attribute composed of the name of the field and the suffix '_required '.

    You can use this technique with CFML and HTML tags form. If the user leaves the FirstName field empty, ColdFusion rejects the submission of form and returns a message informing the user that the field is required. You can customize the contents of this error message.

    For example:
    To require that the user enters a value in the field FirstName for a HTML input tag, I use the following syntax:

    < input type = "Text" name = "FirstName" size = "20" maxlength = "35" >
    < input type = "hidden" name = "FirstName_required".
    value = "You must enter your first name." >

    This is a nice, simple, solution non-javascript. However, it seems to only work for text fields and entered radio, not the drop-down lists. Is there a way to the same demand of the drop-down lists in the form? (I prefer not to have to resort to additional javascript validation)

    I used it with some fields.


    The issue here is that if you have any tag "selected" option
    even an empty option "Select a value" type, this selection has been
    finished and he will not raise a validation error.

  • 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;>
    {
    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;>
    {
    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!

  • Forms - selection drop-down list box makes other fields appear

    I am building a form in InDesign that I export to PDF format with several fields (text, drop-down list, radio, checkboxes). Some fields are defined to trigger the visibility of other fields and that works very well. What I want to do and what I can barely reach, is to have a selection for a combo box, make 3 other visible fields. I'm just a beginner when it comes to buttons in InDesign and the forms of the suggestions would be appreciated.

    If it is easier to achieve in Acrobat I try too.

  • 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.
