• How to change the items in a drop-down list box that is part of an array of clusters

  Hello

  In the attached vi, I have an array of clusters and each cluster contains two drop-down list boxes. How can I edit the items in the drop-down list box 1 for all elements in the array? (All elements of list box 1 has the same elements.)

  By way of illustration, I have also included the case of trivila, for example, edit the items in a separate drop-down list box that is is not part of an array of clusters (combo box 3). Please notify. Thank you.

  Right click on the drop-down list box and select Create-> Node-> String() property. Place it on the block diagram. Change to write (right click) and then feed him an array of strings.

• Help select the value from a drop-down list box

  Hello

  I develop a script (in JavaScript) which will allow a user to select an export PDF presets (that are loaded in a drop-down list) and then export the InDesign file to PDF, by using the selected PDF preset.

  I have the combo fill properly and I am also able to export to PDF correctly, however I have a problem setting the preset has been selected by the user. Here are some of my code fragments:

  Drop-down list:

  with(borderPanels.add()) {
  
       pdfDD = dropdowns.add();
  
       sl = new Array();
  
       for (i = 0; i < app.pdfExportPresets.length; i++)
  
       sl.push(app.pdfExportPresets[i].name);
  
       pdfDD.stringList = sl;
       pdfDD.selectedIndex = 0;
  }
   
  ...
   
  myPreset = pdfDD.selectedIndex;

  In PDF format:

      // Open, Export, & Close
      for (i = myFileAmount; i >= 0; i--) {
          app.open(File(myFolderContents[i]));
  
          createHyperlinks();
  
          app.activeDocument.exportFile(
          ExportFormat.pdfType, File(myFolder.fsName + "/" + app.activeDocument.name.split(".indd")[0] + ".pdf"), false, myPreset);
          app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.no);
      }

  During the passage of myPreset, it is defined as 6 (the index from the drop-down list).  How can I set myPreset that the real value of what has been chosen?

  Thank you!

  In view of your code, you probably need something like:

  myPreset = app.pdfExportPresets.itemByName (pdfDD.stringList [pdfDD.selectedIndex]);

• Make a field of text/hide according to the results of a drop-down list box

  Hello

  I wonder if someone could help me with this. I want to show/hide some text boxes in my form according to the choice made by the person filling in. For example, there is a dropdown list containing a selection of numbers 1-4. If 1 was selected, the text boxes below 1 would be visible and obligatory, if the 2 have been chosen, 2 text boxes below would be visible and required etc...

  I'm new to FormCalc (only started using it this morning), so simple a possible explanation would be fantastic.

  Thanks for reading!

  Of course, you can have javascript and formcalc in the form. Not only the two in the same field, same event; D

  Okey, let's try some things:

  (1) check if the "binding" from the drop-down list is the same as the values that you choose. In the script you are referring to the bound values.

  (2) other names for the Textfields would be better, because it is more difficult to refer to "Textfield1 [1]" then to for example: 'New '. I was just to lazy to give them names. (If it's on another page or subform, you refer to the fields correctly: as MyForm.FirstSubform.FirstTextfield... this name lies in the specific script field.)

  (3) check your script once more... want to make invisible mandatory fields?

  (4) check if your form is dynamic. (If it isn't you will not see the changes...)

  You should probably do it in small steps, such as:

  (1) first of all, you refer to areas such as:

  This.rawValue = Firstfield.rawValue;

  If the changed value fields got you its name and to be sure that the event you put is the right one.

  (2) try the different parts of the script and look at how it works. Problems can be more easily found and then

• try to fill in a number field with the help of a drop-down list box control and a text box

  That's what I work with so far.  The lines of code are quite simple, but (as I expand this to its full size of accounting for all combinations of variables) the result field seems suffocating and will not auto-update to change the variables in the form. Var v comes from a drop down menu, var n is a numeric field.

  var v = this.getField("TextOptions").value;

  var n = this.getField("Number").value;

  If (v == "TextOptionA") if (n == '1') event.value = "2";

  else if (v == "TextOptionA") if (n == '2') event.value = "3";

  else if (v == "TextOptionA") if (n == '3') event.value = "3";

  else if (v == "TextOptionA") if (n == '4') event.value = "4";

  else if (v == "TextOptionA") if (n == '5') event.value = "4";

  else if (v == "TextOptionB") if (n == '1') event.value = "0";

  else if (v == "TextOptionB") if (n == '2') event.value = "0";

  else if (v == "TextOptionB") if (n == '3') event.value = "1";

  else if (v == "TextOptionB") if (n == '4') event.value = "1";

  else if (v == "TextOptionB") if (n == '5') event.value = "1";

  else if (v == "TextOptionC") if (n == '1') event.value = "2";

  else if (v == "TextOptionC") if (n == '2') event.value = "3";

  else if (v == "TextOptionC") if (n == '3') event.value = "3";

  else if (v == "TextOptionC") if (n == '4') event.value = "4";

  else if (v == "TextOptionC") if (n == '5') event.value = "4";

  else event.value = "";

  In addition, TextOptionA, C, E, G and I will produce the event.value even, given the same variable n.  The same is true with TextOptionB, D, F and H.  Is it possible to compress the "TextOptionX" s that will produce the same event.value gave a value of n in one line?  Something along these lines (I know its bad, but it's the idea):

  var v = this.getField("TextOptions").value;

  var n = this.getField("Number").value;

  If (v == 'TextOptionA' or 'TextOptionC') if (n == '1') event.value = "2";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionA' or 'TextOptionC' or 'TextOptionE') if (n == '2') event.value = "3";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionA' or 'TextOptionC' or 'TextOptionE') if (n == '3') event.value = "3";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionA' or 'TextOptionC' or 'TextOptionE') if (n == '4') event.value = "4";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionA' or 'TextOptionC' or 'TextOptionE') if (n == '5') event.value = "4";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionB' or 'TextOptionD' or 'TextOptionF') if (n == '1') event.value = "0";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionB' or 'TextOptionD' or 'TextOptionF') if (n == '2') event.value = "0";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionB' or 'TextOptionD' or 'TextOptionF') if (n == '3') event.value = "1";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionB' or 'TextOptionD' or 'TextOptionF') if (n == '4') event.value = "1";

  else if (v == 'TextOptionB' or 'TextOptionD' or 'TextOptionF') if (n == '5') event.value = "1";

  else event.value = "";

  Something like that could be reduced to about 40 220 + lines of code.  Please help us on a mannequin of javascript.

  For the first part of the code, the problem might be that the value of the 'Number' field is a number, not a string (that you assume in your code).

  To solve that you can access the field valueAsString instead of the value property property.

  For the second part of the operator OR in JS code is ' | ', would therefore be the first if condition:

  If (v == "TextOptionA" | v == "TextOptionC")

  Note that the comparison of v must appear in both parts of the if statement, in its entirety.

• Using Wizard of the Action to change the font in the drop-down list box

  Acrobat Pro DC on a MAC under OS X 10.11.6

  I have a form that is mainly created in Indesign (it works for us - I know that others prefer to locate forms purely in Acrobat).

  I have a script I can run through the wizard of the Action (run a javascript script) to change the font in all fields in text form. But being a novice script that I can not understand how to create a similar script that will change the font used by drop-down list boxes (created in Indesign). Is it possible by a script?

  I know I can do it manually through the properties, but if someone can give me a pointer to find a way to do it with a script that would be amazing!

  Thank you

  The script can be changed to:

  for (var i = 0; i)< numfields;="" i++)="">

  var f = getField (getNthFieldName (i));

  If (f.type = 'text' | f.type = "combobox") {}

  f.textFont = "Arial";

  f.textSize = "10";

  }

  }

  But now I have to ask, what are your reasons to use Arial instead of Helvetica?

• channels drop-down list box

  I'm trying to get some combo boxes to have their entries populated by a text file. I have read many entries of forum on 'string []' property, but he refuses to work for me. I want the combo box is editable by changing the entries in a text file.

  Does anyone can beat this code into submission? I get this error message on a controller GPIB needing to be in charge.

  You have several issues General, but here are the ones affecting your drop-down list box:

  1. In general, if you make copies of OR provided files, use new names.
  2. The VI you changed to read strings from the worksheet is bad DEFAULT.  You have the number of lines, by default 4 and start playback offset set by default to 132.  You get the error is because the file is not 132 bytes of data.  Definition of those to-1 and 0, repsectively will remove the error.  You should do this by opening the VI, change the value, then right-click and select "Data management"-> "Make current default value" for each of the two controls.
  3. Now, the VI you properly load the values in the file.
  4. There is no reason to replay the file whenever the user changes the value of the drop-down list box.  Read once at the beginning of the program.

• How to populate a drop-down list box itemEditor

  Hi all
  
  I have a DataGrid where one of the columns is a drop-down list box. I use a component itemEditor for the drop-down list box. I guess that's the best practice? I have an arrayCollection collection in my application I want to use in the itemEditor, but I'm not sure how to pass data to the component. Here is my code.

• Automatically populate a drop-down list by using another selection from the drop-down list box

  New java/preparation forms so I apologize in advance.

  I currently have a menu drop-down box 1 (Occupation) with three options: "enter your own description/blank", retired housewife. When someone chooses either retirement or anyone at home, I would another drop box 2 (employer) to assign automatically "n/a. . The employer drop box has only two options: "enter your own/blank", N/A.

  Far, I could for that box to fill but only when the person clicks in the box (as if they were about to enter their own text.) Then only it will fill the drop-down list "employer." I would like it auto fill once the person has chosen retired, Virgin or stay-at-home woman without having to enter in the box (just using the arrow to the size of the drop-down list box).

  I currently have a key shot that resets the employer box when a person chooses the option vacuum/enter your own option. I then a JavaScript (only for the housewife now) that only works if you click the box of. Key combination works I want to than the other options work as well. If the client settles on white, the choice of the employer updates automatically empty without having to click in the box of. Any help (including general advice to make my code cleaner) is very appreciated!

  Current script of typing:

  If {(event.willCommit)

  If (event.value == "") this.resetForm (["use"]); of other SetFieldValues (event.value);

  }

  The current upward, mice running JavaScript :

  var v = this.getField ("Occupation") .value

  If (v is "Housewife")

  1. this.getField("Employer").value = "N/a".

  I think maybe I should use event.willCommit in my formula, but I'm not sure how to include it.

  Thank you!

  I would not use the key sequence or MouseUp actions for this, but the action post.

  Just make sure that you set the field option to validate the selected value immediately (under Properties - Options) and then use this code as the custom validation script:

  var employerField = this.getField("Employer");
  if (event.value=="Homemaker" || event.value=="Retired")
      employerField.value = "N/A";
  else employerField.value = employerField.defaultValue;
  

• 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.

• Command to refresh a calculated field when you select an option from the drop-down list box

  When my form user selects an option in a drop-down list box, the value in the field (in this case, Total) I would like to update, but it isn't.

  A radio button option box makes the Total-development field to automatic update when the user clicks on the radio button. But the drop-down list box is not updated Total (without clicking away from the field). I would like to add a command in the Combo Box to refresh the Total field when you selected the option to drop-down list box.

  Someone at - it a code (Javascript?) to get there.

  Thank you very much.

  You don't need a script, simply select the 'Value selected to validate immediately' checkbox on the Options tab of the dialog list box drop-down list box field properties.

• Select the string table drop-down list box.

  Hi all

  I want to select the combo box list based on a string in the entry, I don't know how to do this. I have a drop-down list box and the value comes from a database, what I want to do is I want to change the value of the selected box based on the existing value in the database drop-down list. for example, A, B, C D I strings in the drop-down list box, and then in my database, I have a field with the string C, I want to change the C to A. I can't enter the value of C in a string format, but I don't know how to be the first position of the drop-down list box in so the order of channels combo box will be C, A, B, d., the value of C

  Thank you

  Then just write a new array of strings, with the elements of the new agenda, to the "[] strings" - property.

  Either you must code something that allows you to create an array of strings with the elements in the order that you want them to be. If there is a reorganization only, you could do something like:

  -Get the array of strings [] from the drop-down list using a property node box.

  -Find the position of the element you want to place first and use "delete from table", which returns the new array and the element removed.

  -Build a new table 1 d of the deleted item and table remaining. Move to the second combobox Strings [] property of a node property.
