Fields in forms on several layers

Hi, I wonder if anyone can give me an answer on this or point me to a resource for this.

I have an interactive brochure for a conference with muliple buttons that turns visabilities on layer and outside (there is a button for the time display every day for Conference etc.)

I want to include a simple registration form and I want the form to be on a layer so that it can be displayed when you press a specific button (which sets the visibility of the layer).  Obviously if we can work on a single layer, why not several forms on several layers, hence the title of the post. :))

Is this possible in Acrobat?  I have searched and tried and have not met with success.  BTW yes - I know that I could add an extra page with a button pointing to this page, but I was wondering if there was a more elegant solution :)

Any help, guidance etc would be greatly appreciated.

You pouvez promote fields of form on one layer (BCG) using preflight in Acrobat Pro, but it's a very bad idea - the specification PDF can allow it to happen, but the Acrobat user interface was never designed with fields covered in BCG in mind, so things like the ability to highlight the fields on DMB start to do strange things.

The 'proper' method is to use scripts to show and hide individual fields by activating / deactivating the attribute visibility, rather than promotion of these in a BCG. The script can of course also set BCG States (e.g. to show/hide the labels) but the form lives on base level. The UI knows how to deal with very well hidden fields.

  • I created a PDF form with several drop downs, all with the same drop-down values. When I select a value of 1 in the drop-down list fields, it breeds in all others - which I don't want. How can I fix?

    I am fairly new to this, but I think it has to do with the way you have drop them downs named. Copy you a then keep stick in each area? If so, that's the problem. You must rename each with a different number: Dropdown1, Dropdown2, etc. I think this might solve the problem.

  • Simultaneously select several layers and sous-calques

    Hello

    I'll have to select several layers and their Undercoats in Illustrator 2014, but sticking to the procedure described in the post below only lets you select several "main layers" with the left sublayer deselected.

  • Import Illustrator file with several layers and sublayers as composition by keeping all layers and sous-calques

    I drew a map of the country with several layers and sous-calques, including the streets, cities, railroads...

    Now, I want to create a template for my colleagues in After Effects.

    To do this, I want to import the AI in After Effects, holding all sublayers and layers in compositions and subcompositions.

    When I do, I get the first two layers correctly, others just in a merged publication.

    What can I do to get all the layers of each as a layer in After Effects?

    Best regards, Raphael

    Illustrator imports only the first level of the layers. If you have groups or paths below you must release layer groups. The layers will then be stacked in the order in the form of layers. Then you need to move them to the top.

    The procedure is to select a layer in the layer Illustrator Panel, then without selecting any which specific element in the layer click on the menu in the upper right corner and select release to layers. All an elements in this layer will be transformed into layers. Now, select all, and drag them to the top above the original layer. This will leave the empty original layer and put all the elements in new layers.

    Here is a tutorial I made there are a bunch of years and who uses this technique to transform a mixture in a morphing.

  • Hidden field in form with the url of the page value

    Hello world of Dreamweaver,

    Just a quick question im stuck on.

    I have created a simple form name, Email and Message. The problem is I want to use the same form on several different pages, but being able to say what the URL of the form was sent from. I see I want a hidden field in the form, but how could I go all that actually send the URL with the other information?

    Thanks in advance!

    Do better on the server side (ColdFusion, ASP, PHP, etc.).   In ColdFusion, you can use #cgi.script_name # to get the name of the document that contains the form.

    However, you can use JavaScript (not as reliable - esp if the user has JS disabled.)

    Location.href or document. URL will take the path of COMPLETE domain including the name of the document.  Don't forget to access the page via the domain name FULL or http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1.  If access you it via file:\\\C:\path\to\document.htm, so I don't know how this will work.

  • 2 fields of form in a DB entry

    I apologize in advance if this question has been asked and answered many times. I'm new on this and extremely frustrated because I continue to bog down.

    I use Dreamweaver to create a Web site with Coldfusion as the server. I use Quickbooks and QODBC to use the DB to integrate cf.

    I created a form with several fields of all text entries. I was able to get all the information to display in my database correctly. However, my question is I want to create a multiple entry that would combine the two form fields in a column in the database table. For example I first name and last name in the form of form fields when the user submits I want to both get into their columns in the table, but also combine into a single entry in the format name in a FULL NAME column of the table. Is it possible if yes, how? Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    In the first query, where is a comma to separate values. ??? This is the problem I think.

    This is how your code should be.

    1. define the values in variables.

    2. use the variables inside your CFQUERYPARAM

    Please fill out the maxlength and cfsqltype therefore, also in your first query, billaddressAddr1 is missing (check also); In the query, I added.

    INSERT INTO customer (name, LastName, FullName, BillAddressAddr1, BillAddressAddr2, BillAddressCity, BillAddressState, BillAddressPostalCode)

  • Management of several layers at the same point

    Hello

    I use the API in my application and Javacript Mapviewer, more than one layer can be established at the same point. I use MVThemeBasedFOI. If you click on this point, I want to give the possibly to choose which layer you want. Now when I have several layers, only the last can be clicked. Is there a way to solve it?

    MVThemeBasedFOI.setBringToTopOnMouseOver (boolean).   I found this method, but how do I access all layers when I click on a point?

    Thanks for help.

    ESC.

    I tried really hard things to fool this behavior. At the end of the search for new features that were not in the documentation, I found this: MVMapView.enableMultiThemeClickable (boolean). They should update the documentation because there are a lot of functions implemented that do not exist.

    Just enable it and it works perfectly!

    mapview.enableMultiThemeClickable (true);

    The solution is a very useful shortcut, but requires a bit of dexterity.

    Of is it: Ctrl + Alt + Shift + e. (Yes, 4 keys at the same time).

    This creates a new layer that is the fusion of visible layers.

  • Apply the filter at several layers at the same time (without converting them to a CG)

    Hey everybody,

    I looked everywhere for a way to simply apply the same filter with several layers at once, without first convert to smart object. I need to keep my layers intact and separated from the others. Does anyone know of a script or a way to do this?

    Any response is appreciated.

    Paul has a script "Filter selected Layers" on the site that makes the most of the filters.

  • Capture several layers of application on a virtual machine

    Another newbee question. I'm following the VMware Horizon Mirage App layer v4.0 capture guidelines on page 9 where he describes the process if you are going to use a virtual machine, so you can capture several layers of app. I followed steps 1 - create own reference machine, install Client Mirage and centralize the unit to a CVD of reference; 2 take a snapshot of the State of cleanliness; 3. in the MMC, use the launch App layer Capture (actually called Capture App layer in the commune of assistants, unless I'm mistaken) option... Here's where I hit a roadblock. Unit is a CVD of reference, the wizard takes me to select from pending devices, and I can't access the device but it is located in the area of reference CVD. The virtual machine itself also appears in Devices.Do assigned I must withdraw from somewhere? I'm confused !

    To capture an application tier, you must have 'reference' machine in a wait state. To capture a base layer, you must have the machine of 'reference' centralized as a reference machine. It's a little confusing. You can use the same machine to capture both types of layers. You can remove the reference CVD of inventory and it will appear in the expectation of devices.

  • How to make all the pages of a PDF form of several page to print in older versions of the reader?  Player 11 prints all; 10 player skips the first page

    I'm new to creating forms, please excuse my ignorance. I created a form of the 9 page in InDesign on Mac OS 10.6.8 CS6 and exported as an interactive PDF. With Acrobat 10.1.10 I checked that there are no security - everything is allowed. None of the fields on form is required.  I initially had some fields mandatory but is not necessary to see if my printing problem would go.  I activated the extension which allows versions of reader before 11 to save data in the form. Page 1 has fields drop down list, radio buttons, a "submit" button and text fields.  The rest of the form has boxes option and text fields. Some of the people who have tried my form will say that they can print pages 2 through 9, but not on page 1. One of them is known to use Reader 10. I tried to print my form with Reader 11 on Max OX 10.6.8 and Reader 11 on Windows 8.1 and haven't seen any problems printing. What have I done wrong?  Is there something on the submit button on page 1 that made old versions of the drive do not want to print this page?  There is nothing of propriety or sensitive on the form, so I'll leave it for awhile in Dropbox, where someone is willing to inspect it.  It is to

    https://DL.dropboxusercontent.com/u/87784382/Savable_Local_Show_Report_2.PDF

    I was able to find someone willing to do tests that I can not do without having to install older versions of the player on my computer.  The surprising (to me) the result is that the button submit the cause of the problem.  Simply removing the button submit, Reader 10 is now able to print page 1.  The Send button has been implemented to make a 'mailto'.  I don't know if other destinations also cause the issue of the page not print not with older versions of the reader.
