Enable drop-down text ring/enum selection programmatically

Hello

Is it possible to active the drop-down menu for a ring of text, or enum programmatically, like to point to the user to select one of the options for the command.

Thank you

I modified the example found here - http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/0CC5602FE23E86DA86257350004E1B6A. You will have to manipulate the position of the mouse to navigate to a specific line, but this will open the ring.

  • How to create a DHTML menu link drop-down text involving an object in the same section?

    Hello!

    What I want to achieve is related to a post earlier this week (trying to run 2 targets with the same trigger). The workaround is to insert a link in a menu drop-down text saying something like "Click here to see this area on the image below", but I can't get this trigger to work.

    What I did:

    1. Create as target a text box placed around the area on the image.
    2. Do trigger on a word in the text of the menu drop down.
    3. Using the drum next to the trigger, try to bind to the target.

    The link of the drum don't cross in front of the menu text editor drop-down.

    Anyway to make it work otherwise? Work at home since Tuesday, I can't.

    Thanks again for your help, it's really appreciated.

    Hello

    Here's how I'd do. I absolutely HATE this small editing window. Yes!

    Build the text you want as well as links and triggers in the main part of the subject. Overall, I'm doing this right where the drop will be finally considered. Then select this option and cut in the windows clipboard.

    Now open the cuss pesky lil of a window and select all the items inside. Paste that cut you earlier.

    I said I don't like the small window? I thought I might have.

    Sameh salvation,

    Thanks for the reply. Your code

    1. DCIteratorBinding iter is BindingContext.getCurrent () .getCurrentBindingsEntry () .get ("iteratorNameInPageDef") (DCIteratorBinding);.
    2. Object secondDropdownValue = iter.getCurrentRow () .getAttribute ("AttributeName");  has been really helpful to get the selected value.

  • Printed output problem-RH 9 print drop-down text above its parent text. It serves out below!

    Hmmm I found a problem of bad potentionally for our printed output.

    Our documentation project uses many links of menu drop-down (hyper links where the text below the link in the next paragraph). Documentation was written with her expected the text to come out under the text.

    For example, I have this in my HR propject. When I saw, or when I compile in our output HTML Help (chm), it looks like this:

    A string of text

    Chain of that text a drop-down list appears here

    Text String B

    String B drop down text appears here

    Text of string C

    String C drop-down text appears here

    However, to the printed output, it produces like this:

    Chain of that text a drop-down list appears here

    String B drop down text appears here

    String C drop-down text appears here

    A string of text

    Text String B

    Text of string C

    This is my first generate output printed in RH 9. Previously, we were using 7 HR and aroused as planned, with the drop-down list text to come below.

    Is anyone else seeing this? Do you know a setting or something that might be able to solve this problem?

    Ok. I figured out how to fix it. This was happening in HR 7 too now that I think about it. I hope Adobe will solve this problem, because it's pretty hard to do workaround.

    Here's the background on my project and the solution to my problem.

    Background. It is a project to help straight decompiled html (chm) with high hydrostatic pressure. It was initially generated by RoboHelp 7. I am important in RH 9 to try and generated a textbook printed of this help file. So if you want to reproduce this on your end, create a test project in HR 7 with a drop down link or two. To generate a .chm file. Decompile the chm file and create a file with a LOT of HTML or MS Help Workshop hhp. Open the high hydrostatic pressure inside RH 9. Without change or save all the topics in HR immediately try to make printed output. You will see that the output below.

    Workaround. You must open the assigned topic in the WYSIWYG editor and do a simple (such as adding a space and delete), and then save them then the subject. When you generate the printed output, the drop down links put the image below the parent text. The problem is I have thousands of subjects in this project and it takes FOREVER to solve this problem. I had to resort to a macro during the night opens on each topic, makes a minor change and record before printing. I really hope that there is a way better around this in the future.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9: Javascript populated the drop-down list box - response selected array will not save

    I have a combo on one of my forms box that is filled with the help of a Javascript array.  The drop-down list box is filling very well, but when an item is selected in this drop-down list box, the selected item does not save when the user saves the document.  Any suggestions as to what is the problem and how it can be corrected?  I am a loss to know where even to start the search.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Lisa

    It seems that the drop-down list box may be getting filled with code that runs when the form is opened. If so, it will overwrite the value selected, whenever it opens. The solution would be to change the code so that it is not than that. If not, you can post the form somewhere so we can take a look?

  • Problems with the sorting of a table with drop-down text cells

    I have 2 subjects (among a number of topics), and each section has a table.

    I followed Mr Grainge help to sort a table without an arrow and in heading 1, it does not work as expected. When I generate my WebHelp I can click on any one of my columns will sort the data. I can see the little black arrow head and black arrow head.

    I know absolutely nothing about HTML and basically followed the instructions for help and got to work.

    The second is a little different in that has 3 columns and rows about 375. The second column contains cells with the drop down text (but not all) as some have yet to be converted.

    The questions are:

    (1) a column will sort once only. So if I click on column 1, the head of black arrow appears. Subsequently, no amount of click will change the State of the data. I can sort the data on any of the 2 remaining columns, but I can never switch between ascendants and descendants of sequence on the same column.

    (2) in Design view, I see all the data in each cell. After that I generated my WebHelp, some of the cells that contain drop-down text fields are missing. Some are, and some are not. Those who are there, work perfectly when I click on the text and the text of the menu drop-down appears. Each drop-down text field has a bookmark.

    ((3) continuous on 2) above, if I use the combination of keys ctrl-w in design, some of the cells that contain text to menu drop-down are missing (probably all those lacking in the Webhelp) and oddly, some of the borders of the cells (I used light blue) are missing. However, they are there in the WebHelp. A sample is attached.

    Get my second table to work as I had hoped would be fantastic and worthwhile so far. However, I'm not quite there yet and need your help and suggestions.

    Please see the last item in the list under the Notes. I suspect this is the problem.

  • Drop-down text repetition

    Greetings,

    I use RoboHelp X 7 to create a Webhelp project and generate printed documents. One of my subjects has 10 items in menu text drop down. The drop-down text elements generate in the Word document. However, one of these repeats. (i.e., in the doc. feel item1, item2, item3, item3, item4).

    Why the repetition occurs and how to solve the problem?

    Thank you

    Do not take into account; problem solved. The original author created two items of text to drop down in the same sentence.

  • Connection of a drop-down text field and box

    Untitled.jpg

    I am new to livecycle and have only used it for 2 days. I be so grateful for all the amazing expert help I found here. I think that my first form is almost over. I'm having a problem with one last question. I created a database with two fields. field 1 is name and displays a name I.E. John Doe, zone 2 is ID and contains a single string as 12345678. I created a drop down list for name and it works fine, I see all the names in the database. I then created a text field I want to show ID in.

    Example when

    Name                            ID

    John Doe 12345678

    And if another use is selected

    Name                            ID

    DOE 12345987

    How can I connect these two fields to display the correct data?

    Hello

    When you have linked the drop-down list for the data connection you set the value of the element and the text of the item properties in this dialog box

    If you have set the value of the element to ClientID, which would get the customer name and customer id in the drop-down control on the form, then this.boundItem (xfa.event.change) when xfa.event.change contains a text value of the element will return the value of the element (or the id of the customer in your case)

  • Drop-down menu dynamic - "initially selected.

    Would appreciate some advice here because I can't find a solution

    I have some MySQL tables in a database that I use with PHP to make a billing page based on the web that retrieves data from other tables based on selections made using dropdpwns.  Using an "onChange" event handler, make one selection (other than one already shown dependent) calls a Javascript function that queries a database through a PHP page called. Then fill another predefined with the query results.

    For example: -.

    • the user makes a selection in the drop-down list of 'Product ID' (this is filled using dynamic data to a products table)
    • Once the selection is made, the javascript and PHP work to fill another area of the page with the result returned.

    Now the problem I have is that when loading the page, the 'initially selected' on the dynamic drop-down list shows the last entry of the table.

    Sorry to take if long development, but here goes...

    What I want to achieve is the loading of the page, dynamic drop-down menus are filled with the data in the table, but each has then a "select..." rather than the last record in the table display. "  This requires the user to make a change.  This is necessary because the "onChange" event handler must be changed so that it calls the function.

    Is there a way to do it, or am I barking the wrong tree, so to speak.

    Would appreciate your collective knowledge.

    Thank you very much

    First of all, in the dynamic dialog where you select the table and assign the value and labels, delete anything that may be in the text box set the value below. This is used to display a previously selected value that is part of a Recordset or another value. Then, add a static selection option above - all you need is a text as you please select and the value can be left blank. Save, then highlight the static label and make it like the option chosen initially. You will need are also posting to make a required selection. List of menus is the rule that you need something formulated thing lik "first step". Given that the first option is the static label, please select, the user cannot use it as a selection and validation will fail. The effective implementation of the validation of the form varies depending on what you are using, as some ther are built in DW, Spry validation more several third party extensions, you can use the functions.

  • Drop-down text excerpts?

    A user recently asked on the use of drop-down lists in the code snippets. I need to do the opposite – use excerpts from the text drop down in a help topic. Looks like it should be possible. But I have not figured out how. Anyone?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    How exactly did you try to insert code snippets into the menu drop-down?

    If you have tried the "RoboHelp" of things way just plopping in this popup window bit frustrating, you could try a different approach. Insert Snippets directly in the topic that you do not want to see them when the dropdown was clicked. Select them, then cut them in the Windows Clipboard. Then paste that into the little frustrating window. See if it holds.

    Another possible thought is that maybe create a single cell and insert them into that. Maybe the code for additional container for the table will cause the RoboHelp Editor to see things differently? But I would try the first elder.

    See you soon... Rick

  • How to trigger a refresh of a drop-down list when the selection is changed

    Hello

    This is a general question of ExtendScript, but since I work with FM, I'll ask here first. I have a bit of a paradox here and I'm not sure of the best way to manage it.

    I have a dialog box with a drop-down list, where I want to refresh some controls when the user changes the selection in the list (dropdownList.onChange). This includes them refresh the content of the list itself. However, the problem is, whenever I try to update the content of the list, onChange triggers again. So, if I put the call to update box in the onChange handler, it will result an infinite loop, because my upgrade function fires onChange when it refreshes the list.

    Does anyone know a better methodology, where I can safely triggers a refresh of a drop-down list in the list's onChange event handler? I really wish that onChange was reserved for an action of the user only, or at least there is a property for this purpose.

    Russ

    Hi Fabio,.

    You can't "Refresh" a menu drop-down.

    But you can rebuild.

    You must do it "manually".

    As I do:

    1. I have a picture I want to show in the dropdownlist control.

    2. I have delete all children: myList.removeAll ();

    3 I have rebuild the list via mylist.add ("item", "myArray [index] in a for - loop.

    But if you know the exact position of the elements to remove or add, you can do so via splice()

  • Show drop-down list field hide selection in another drop-down list box

    Hello I need to create two drop-down fields on a dynamic PDF in LiveCycle. The first field contains three choices. When a user selects an item in the drop-down list first I would like to a new field of drop-down list has been shown. For each item in the first drop-down list appears a new field drop-down list with unique values. If the user chooses blue drop-down list of blue shades indicate in this menu drop-down will be various shades of blue to choose for. If the Red is chosen, Shades of Red dropdown with appearance and if yellow is displayed the same occurs. Also if the user must go back and change their selection in the first drop-down list, they can do the same. Any suggestions?

    Thank you in advance.

    There are 2 ways you could do this. The first is just to have the 3 drop-down lists for the second box to separate and do them all hidden. The output of the first dropdown event would then have the code that would make it the second box become visible, something like (in formcalc):

    If ($ == 1) then

    dropdownRed.presence = "visible".

    dropdownBlue.presence = "hidden".

    dropdownYellow.presence = "hidden".

    ElseIf ($ == 2) then

    dropdownRed.presence = "hidden".

    dropdownBlue.presence = "visible".

    dropdownYellow.presence = "hidden".

    ElseIf ($ == 3) then

    dropdownRed.presence = "hidden".

    dropdownBlue.presence = "hidden".

    dropdownYellow.presence = "visible".

    endif

    The other option is just to have a dropdown that dynamically changes its options based on the results of the first box. So in the second box preOpen event you might have something like (in formcalc):

    If (dropdown1 == 1) then

    $. clearItems()

    $.setItems ("light red, dark red")

    ElseIf (dropdown1 == 2) then

    $. clearItems()

    $.setItems ("sky blue, dark blue")

    ElseIf (dropdown1 == 3) then

    $. clearItems()

    $.setItems ("light yellow, dark yellow")

    endif

  • How do interactive drop down text boxes?

    As many know maybe of my recent posts, I'm pretty new to this thing any design. I get a pretty good shot of most of the things, but now I've reached a point where I am trying to create some interactive features.

    I have a page in a whish magazine iPad is a picture full page. I want to do is have a couple of buttons in random places on the photo, which when it is typed/press/pushed, place a drop-down list text and wraps what tapped/pushed/pressed once again, the text box. I don't know what it is that we call or how to do it so any help is appreciated.

    I can ot understand it myself if someone can give me a general idea of what this kind of issue and the General steps.

    Thanks for the help

    You might want to try State Multi objects (States of objects).

    A State must be an empty block and the other State, a text box.

    Buttons get the 'Go to' action so that you can at different States of objects when you press on them.

    If you are really looking for a way to make interactive (HTML are), you can use HTML (5) and include it in DPS as Web content.

  • Populate a drop-down list based on selected in a drop-down list in a separate table

    Good day all.

    This may seem a simple question for most, but... He had me frustrated trying to figure out.

    I'm trying to fill in a drop-down list that is based on what is selected in another drop-down list.

    Let me explain what I've done so far.

    Life cycle of Designer 8.05.2

    When I got the two drop-down lists in the same table, I've not had a problem. The code I used is

    The table name is "table1".

    if (directorate.rawValue == '1')

    {

    division.clearItems ();

    division.addItem ("select" "")

    }

    I was asked to move things and now 'division' is located in 'Table2 '.

    I know that I need the "Table1" reference, but I'm running into a syntax error. I tried the following code;

    if (Table1 Row1 directorate.rawValue == '1')

    {

    division.clearItems ();

    division.addItem ("make a choice")

    }

    if (Table1.Row1.directorate.rawValue == '1')

    {

    division.clearItems ();

    division.addItem ("make a choice")

    }

    Any help would be appreciated

    Chomp

    You are missing a semicolon at the end of the line, addItem, and the second code example, you have no periods in the SOM (Table1 Row1 direction) reference.

    The best way to get the path to another field is to ctrl-click on the ground while you are in the script editor.
