• How to create a text field containing text/label which can be modified by the end user?

  Hello

  I'm trying to figure out how to create a text field containing text or a label that can be changed by the end user. Can do something like this in LiveCycle?

  Below, I have a text field that contains a question and another text field where the user will enter their answer. Is there a way to allow the end user to change the text of the question, as shown in the example?

  

  Hello

  If you used a standard text for the 'legend' field you could set the value by default (in the value of the object palette tab) in the legend and the legend of the value None (in the page layout palette).

• Drop-down list data connection - several text fields-

  Hello to you all, guru out there. I'm new on Adobe LiveCycle, but I have some experience coding in other languages, but not of JavaScript and XML. Trying to get a user to select a client and then based on this selection, I want to return several address fields, a Contact name at the customer's location and a phone number. The data connection is an ODBC connection to our CRM software, and information are stored in a table. The user of the form will be our Service technicians, and the rest of the form will be a place to type notes about the service call. We just try to facilitate the choice of the customer for our Service technicians to rather than having to type all the information. I've searched the forums and the solutions that I keep coming across are values defined by the user in the drop-down list, I have not found an example that illustrates this with a data connection. I work from a return address field to a text field (using the command .rawValue), but I need to fill in some more information. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanking you in advance,

  SSCLadam

  THW way I did is to use two data connections. 1st one to fill the DDlist with a list of customers. In this one, I use simple bind to do the job. Then a 2nd connection that will extract the folder of figurines based on the selection of the DDlist. This requires the code a SQL DB to retrieve the appropriate record. To implement this data connection, I can use the provided column headers to bind columns in the fields in my form. Then when this data connection is open (I put to delayed opening) and it returns the file in question are bound fields get automagically populated!

  I've included a sample I created... .you won't have the Pb, but you can at least see what I did. The code is on the change event of the DDlist

  Hope that helps

• Creating forms (text fields)

  I use the classroom in a book "Adobe Acrobat X ISBN-13 978-0-321 - 75125 - 6.

  In Lesson 10 page 253, I finished all the properties for the"Order_Start.pdf" when I entered the data in the 'price' and the 'quantity' the 'total' to this line updated as usual; However, the "total commander" would not update until his area of the property was opened and the tab 'calculate' was opened and 'choose' tab was pressed and 'selection field' box was open and then closed. (All total boxes are always selected) When the pdf file was returned to the normal state, updates "the order total.

  I tried to open the file in Adobe Reader and it still does not work.

  If I can get it work, I'll tax the worksheets with the text fields of the pdf tax phamplet.

  Am I missing a step

  You must ensure that the order of computation of field is set to everything that makes sense for the form. Exactly how do you this depends on which version of Acrobat you are using. In Acrobat 11:

  Forms > change

  and then:

  Tasks > other tasks > set field calculation order

• rawValue of several text fields

  Using LiveCycle Designer ES3.

  I have a form created that the user enters customer information, once entered this info I am trying to get a contract to fill on the next page.

  What are the names of the 1 page text fields:

  rsalutation

  rfirstname

  rlastname

  Page 2:

  Here's what I now that isn't currently do not fill any result:

  this.rawValue = page1.rsalutation.rawvalue + '_' page1.rfirstname.rawvalue '_' + page1.rlastname.rawvalue;

  I am very new to work with JavaScript, so please excuse me if I made an obvious error.  I tried about 20 different ways to write this script but nothing has worked.  Also, if that makes a difference with this calculation in the text field is autoexpanding by http://forms.stefcameron.com/samples/ExpandFitEntireValue.pdf.

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

  There is of course no problem. I think that your way to fields must be bad.

  Could you insert a screenshot of your form?

  Now I noticed that you forgot a '+' and your syntax is wrong (V instead of v by rawValue)

  bad:

  this.rawValue = page1.rsalutation.rawvalue + "_" page1.rfirstname.rawvalue + "_" page1.rlastname.rawvalue;
  

  right (when your path is right)

  this.rawValue = page1.rsalutation.rawValue + "_" + page1.rfirstname.rawValue + "_" + page1.rlastname.rawValue;
  

  If the script does not work, please check the next.

  In the menatime, try the following:

  1. NOT manually insert the path.
  2. Click with the cursor after this.rawValue = |
  3. Then click the STRG (CTRL) key and at the same time that the memorandums of understanding in the first field (rsalutation)
  4. The mouse will be a 'V' and insert the correct path.

• How to create a text field in the shape of 'L '.

  I need to insert a text field in an Acroform with a label that begins partially on one line, then continues on the following line, as shown below.

  Is it possible to insert a text field in an L shape? If not, is it possible to automatically move the text to the next field cursor when the person filling out the form is running out of space on the first line? I use Acrobat Pro XI on Windows 7.

  

  Is it possible to insert a text field in an L shape?

  Lol the PDF form fields are always rectangular.

  If not, is it possible to automatically move the text to the next field cursor when the person filling out the form is running out of space on the first line?

  Yes, it's possible, but it takes using a script.

• How to create the text field?

  I can create symbols on the stage by using the command "sym.createChildSymbol".

  But how can I cretare textFields with script?

  concerning

  Hello

  Well, you can create a text symbol (best solution).

  You can also use jQuery, but you must rewrite properties panel: police, position, width, height...

  One case:

  $('

  a new paragraph

  ')

  .appendTo ("#Stage")

  . CSS ({'position': 'absolute', 'top': '40px', 'left': '40px', 'color': 'blue'});

  You can use other tags:

  ,

  ... See html5 tags.

  With the help of classes.

  $('

  a new paragraph

  ')

  .appendTo ("#Stage")

  . CSS ({'position': 'absolute', 'top': '40px', 'left': '40px'});

  SYM. $(".redText") .css ({'color': 'red', 'background-color': "#EEEEEE"});

  I want to hide this paragraph.

  $("#textField").hide ();

  or

  var myParagraph = $("#textField");

  myParagraph.hide ();

  later:

  myParagraph.css('color','black').show ();

  and so on...

• Calculation of amount on several text fields does not?

  Hello! I apologize if this question was asked before. I looked through the forums for a few hours, but has not found an answer that has helped me.

  My problem: I do a calculation of the mileage form. It is supposed to add up everything in the line of mileage and put a total in the total box, in a different area, multiply total mileage of a specific quantity and display the result in dollars. I, however, am stuck on the first part of the calculation.

  What I did: I've created a form to an existing document. I went to the box, I wanted to show the number of miles and right-click on it in form editing mode. I clicked on 'Properties' and went to the tab 'calculate '. I clicked on the option of radio "value is the sum of the following fields." I then select the fields I want to be added. I have them labeled as follows: MILES_1, MILES_2, and so on up to the MILES_31. I chose MILES_1 through MILES_31. Then I clicked on 'Close' and saved the document. This editing in Adobe Acrobat Pro (trial version) works fine, but when I edit in the preview player or Mac, no calculations are made. I checked the order of computation of field, and the only field in the order is the total mileage. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or what else I should do.

  What I'm trying to do: I wish that all fields, MILES_1 thanks MILES_31 added together and the sum displayed in the total mileage and then this sum to be multiplied by a specific amount and display in another area.

  Apple saw the ruins of the PDF Forms. Never use it to open a PDF file with form

  fields.

  If it worked in Acrobat, it should work in Reader.

• Can you create a text field entered by the user that the content of the flow in a subform?

  I'm working on a project to convert into a document library of more than 600 forms from Word to PDF, most of the time it's simple and binding the fields to the database schema and use subforms works very well - however, there are some cases where there is a combination of input fields by the user mixed with fields of database and in some cases , the fields in the end user are all there, but the amount of content can vary from 250 characters to thousands.  The project manager wants a PDF that allows users to enter any amount of text they should and have the function of shaping the way it is as if all the fields have been populated by the database - I don't know of a way to make that work only if the content is first registered in the schema (or implement CM and have all users working in LiveCycle, but the basic data use PDF, take her is not an option right now).

  If anyone has any ideas how to operate the these things I would be very happy to hear about.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  If you can post your form in the post, I can have a look and give my comments.

  I created a sample file for your reference...

  (1) Flowed is set to the content property for Page1.

  (2) each text box is placed inside a subform that is also a property content value Flowed.

  (3) in the properties of the form, as the default tab, set the format of PDF rendering dynamic XML form.

  (4) in the properties of the form, on the overview tab, specify the Type of Preview as "Interactive form" and preview XML Adobe as a 'dynamic XML form' form. (this step is to preview the PDF file in the Designer).

  (5) to save the form as dynamic XML form. (File-> Menu save under).

  I hope this helps.

  If you have any questions, please post your form...

  Thank you

• Validate several text fields

  That's what I'm trying to understand: IF the user selects '1' in the menu drop down AND this field there is empty, the attention of the user to fill out. Once completed, mail. IF the user selects '2' AND the ground there is empty, no one cares so mail anyway.

  
  

  That's what I have:

  }

  If (this.getField("Question_1").value is "1")

  If (this.getField("E-1").value == ") {}

  App.Alert ("Please fill this field");

  }

  of other this.mailDoc({)

  Everything works fine if "1" is selected, but if I select '2' nothing happens at all.

  Any suggestions?

  The code you posted was incomplete, but essentially, it must be something like that, if I understand:

  if (this.getField("Question 1").valueAsString=="1") {
      if (this.getField("E - 1").valueAsString== "")  {
          app.alert("Please fill out that field");
      }
  } else {
      this.mailDoc();
  }
