• 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...

• 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 '>.

  SchedYear =

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

  SchedTime =

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

  < / cfquery >

  < / CFIF >

  < / CFLOOP >

  Can anyone help please?

  You cannot nest sharps. Do this instead:

  SET SchedDay =

• Creation of dynamic form field?  Maybe...

  In my current Application, I have a checkbox field that allows the user to select several lines of busiess and when submitted it records of course their selection on the table as one: entry-delimited
  
  Example:
  That is to say field checkbox P1_LOB
  

  LOB1 |X|
  LOB2 | |
  LOB3 |X|
  LOB4 | |
  LOB5 |X|
  LOB6 | |
  LOB7 | |
  LOB8 | |

  On submission of the form, the following is stored in the LOB of the table field:
  LOB1:LOB3:LOB5
  
  as it should...
  
  I am trying to make the shape a bit cleaner and do not know how to approach it.
  LOB1 through LOB3 actually belong to GROUP 1
  LOB 4-6 belong to GROUP 2
  LOB 7 and 8 belong to GROUP 3
  
  So, on the form, I would to create fields that look like you are selecting them in the box groups
  
  Example:
  

  GROUP 1 HEADING
  LOB1 |X|
  LOB2 | |
  LOB3 |X|
  
  GROUP 2 HEADING
  LOB3 |X|
  LOB4 | |
  LOB5 |X|
  
  GROUP 3 HEADING
  LOB7 | |
  LOB8 | |

  Even more, it would be great if it could be done dynamically according to the Group field, which is in the table LOB. If I add another group to the table, the form would pick up and give him a GROUP 4 POSITIONS header and then these boxes that are part of this group would be present under HEADING GROUP 4.
  
  I have a solution in place that is now I have a field in the database for each group, but it is logical to bulky and not good database and if I add a new group, I have to go to the database and add another field.
  
  Any suggestions or links to examples that might show what I'm trying to do would be appreciated.
  
  Thanks in advance

• 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/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.

• 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?

• 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.

• Creating dynamic form

  Hi guys,.
  
  I was wondering how I could create a dynamic form in pl/sql (region).
  
  For example: I have a table with the different departments, and each Department, I would like to see a dynamically generated form in the area.
  
  How can I do?
  
  Any help is appreciated.
  
  Thank you
  Cleo

  You can build tabular forms manually using htp.p and combining with the APEX_ITEM API to generate fields of form within the dynamic region PLSQL

  If you are not comfortable with the updated reports, the HTML code of the item when you use the APEX_ITEM API, how to treat them in PLSQL, identify lines etc.
  Once you find the HTML for a single editable report, you got to generate the same HTML code using htp.p and using dynamic data in your table, displayed as normal text or fields can be changed using the APEX_ITEM API.

  The HTML code would be something like

  <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" class="report-standard" summary="">
  <tbody>
  <tr>
  <th HEADING...
  ..more TH
  
  </tr>
  <tr class="highlight-row"><td class="data" >input feilds or normal text</td>
  ..more TD
  </tr>
  ..more TR
  </tbody>
  </table>
  

  If you build the same using a dynamic region PLSQL (pseudocode)

  LOOP over departments
    --print region HTML code
  ***For each department
  ***print tabular form table,heading etc
  ***htp.p('<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" class="report-standard" summary="">
  <tbody><tr>');
  ***htp.p('<th>heading1 </th>')
  ***Loop over rows
  *******each row
  *******htp.p('<tr>');
  *******htp.p('<td>'||'normal text column'||'/<td>)
  *******htp.p('<td>');
  *******htp.p(APEX_ITEM.TEXT(1,value..)
  *******htp.p('/<td>)
  *******..more TD's
  *******close TR
  ***END row loop
  ***END this department (close tbody,table tags)
  End department(close region tags div for region title etc
  

  Make sure that you add the classnames to each HTML element - table, tr, td, th, etc so that you get the desired style

  For the treatment of the data, you must loop through the global tables used (as with an editable form of paintings) and use your own logic to update service.

  There are a lot of small details that you have to look in, but you can make them gradually.
  Good luck.

• Dynamic form data deduplication

  I'm working on my first dynamic form, and I'm having a problem where my dynamic subforms share the same data, so a subform of edition updates all other subforms of the same type. The shape is a tshirt order form, so, for example, there will be a line of a specific brand of shirt, plus sizes. When a row is added, it will reproduce all the info from the first line, and any changes made to the second line will be immediately mirrored to the first line. I have fields bound to an XML schema that I wrote, so I do not know if that may be the cause of the problem.

  Hello

  You did not include the XML schema. However the problem is that in the repeating line items are related to the scheme, if this is missing, or if the schema contains only one node, then I'm sure that all repeating instances of the line shows the same data.

  The question is where the data come from? It comes from a database or the user enters it. If the user enters it then I would not link these fields to a schema. The binding name value / Normal.

• Display of the current year in a dynamic text field

  I have a project where I have to click a button and and the current year to display in the form YYYY in a dynamic text field.  My current code was written as:

  var myDate:Date = new Date();

  function whatYear(e:MouseEvent):void {}
  display_txt. Text = myDate.getFullYear ();
  }

  date_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, whatYear);

  I get an Error 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of number type to a type unrelated to String.

  I also have to create one for the current date.

  Any sugessetions? I have tried everything I can thing of, but I'm new to AS3.

  Thank you!

  Try:

  display_txt. Text = myDate.getFullYear (m:System.NET.SocketAddress.ToString ());

  or

  display_txt. Text = String (myDate.getFullYear ());

  or

  display_txt. Text = "" + myDate.getFullYear ();

• Cannot simultaneously use vector art and dynamic forms?

  I was responsible for creating an online order form, and it seems that beign able to use vector graphics is the key to the design of the form. Dynamic form elements are also absolutely necessary - all the information has to fit on one page (and fortunately, most are mutually exclusive, allowing only the fields necessary to appear).

  Unfortunately, when I do a page of the form layout in Illustrator and import it into LiveCycle, I seem to be unable to use the drawing tools (specifically, lines and text, that both I need). I tried to save the file in a dynamic form, but only the opportunity to save it as a static form is displayed.

  Y at - it something I am doing wrong, or I'm going to have to choose between the use of vector graphics and dynamic form options?

  Fix. You can import the static PDF file work and then add the form objects.

• CFIF weird problem with dynamic form variables? Very strange...

  I can't understand what I'm doing wrong here.  Here is my code.  Question explained below.

  < /tr > < / cfoutput > < / cfif > < / cfloop >
  < /table >

  What I'm doing here is pretty basic. I'm running a query with a number of configs in it... and then by creating a loop for their output.  Ultimately, I want only the configurations that did not present 0 in the form on the previous page.  Each of the configs in query configuration has a variable of dynamic form on the previous page with a quantity associated with it.  I am trying to remove all the current amounts that are not 0 (or not to eliminate just not see the)... as you can see on the cfif statement.

  This is where it gets weird.  You will notice that I left #form ['baseconfig #reviewconfigloader.basemodelID #'] #, just for the test, which shows me the amount as it should.  I ran a test and put in a couple of 1 s 0 s, 12 s 6 s, etc. in the form fields on the previous page.  If it worked, it would not show anything for the documents with their value by 0 basemodelID.  Not the case.  It shows all the records.  What's funny is that it displays perfectly in my test #form ['baseconfig #reviewconfigloader.basemodelID #'] #, showing good numbers in the previous form, 1, 0, etc., related to each record.  But for some reason, the cfif code isn't catching.

  What's even weirder... I replaced the cfif ("form.baseconfig #reviewconfigloader.basemodelID # ') NEQ 0 with GT 12 (12 has been the largest number I put in shape) and he always showed all the records.  Then I put in as LT 12 and it revealed nothing.  I decided to go one step further and put in to GT 1231243242343 (massive random number), which he always showed all the records.  So, somehow, CFIF statement think that ("form.baseconfig #reviewconfigloader.basemodelID # ') is an incredibly large number, although when I exit in the line below, it is the number, it should be.

  I'm puzzled.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance!

  Hi Alexander, thank you to try out it... but this errors with error # because just the # emerged from the parenthasis.  So he just bombs.  Let me know if you can imagine than anything else!
