Reader for iPad displays text drop-down field

I created a form using InDesign CC (2015) and it works fine in Acrobat and Reader on desktop. When the use of iPad, the drop-down list (created using a drop-down list box) 5 all items in the list below shows the field (all on top of each other).

No idea why this can happen is greatly appreciated! Thank you!!

Hi LoriLM,

I'm sorry I wasn't very clear.  Here are the steps.

  1. Open the PDF form in Acrobat Reader for iOS on your iPad.
  2. Go to the second page.
  3. Type drop-down list, which exposes the problem of rendering (as shown in the screenshot you posted above).
  4. Select a value (for example 'Previous', 'Center').
  5. Select the empty value (the first item in your drop-down list).

"You can type the.< back"="" button="" in="" the="" upper="" left="" corner="" to="" close="" the="" pdf="" document. ="" the="" changes="" you've="" made="" will="" be="" saved="">

Above is a temporary workaround for the problem of rendering (a drop at a time).

If you have the desktop version of app DC Acrobat Pro (not the Reader), you can also open the PDF and 'Clear' forms (Edit > Options form > clear form).

The rendering problem is caused by a defect in Acrobat Reader for iOS.  We always try to investigate and fix for a future version of Acrobat Reader for iOS.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

  • Do not select the in drop-down fields, JS pls duplicate entries. ?

    Hello

    I have 3 fall to the low fields in my_sub_form, say, my_country_1, my_country_2 and my_country_3. All the field list drop-down boxes are filled with 10 names of countries, say, United States, Canada, Spain, Germany, France...

    Say user selected U.S. my_country_1 drop down field, new user TRYING to select same entry of the United States in the field of the my_country_2 = > here at this point, as soon as the user has selected United States in my_country_2 droppped to the bottom of the Inbox list = > immediately, I need to start the warning message to the user and make the my_country_2 as "" VACUUM.

    Basically, my form does not allow the user to select the duplicate in these 3 fields drop-down entries, all 3 should be SEPARATE.

    If I write JS in the event of my_sub_form, his works well, but not easy to use, this kind of delay.

    So we want to have an INSTANT user alert as SOON AS the user selects an entry duplicated in any field drop-down list

    I tried to put some JS in case of CHANGE of my_country_1 and my_country_2, but does not

    Pls provide me with a few JS and the name of the event, the name of the object

    Thank you

    you could put in the output of the list of my_country_1 event:

    If (this.rawValue == my_country_2.rawValue | this.rawValue == my_country_3.rawValue)

    {

    xfa.host.messageBox ("you can't choose the same country");

    this.rawValue = «»

    }

    then put the same thing in the other menus but change the names.

  • Adobe Reader for iPad

    I was wondering if there was a view in Adobe Reader (for iPad) that would allow me to see all the comments that I made to a document, sort of what you get when you open a PDF in Adobe Acrobat X on a pc.  We have customers who make comments to certain documents and in the end, they would like to recap what they wanted without having to scroll through the document.  Is there such a feature?

  • Failed to open the drop-down fields of form on iPad

    I have created a form in Adobe Pro, added several drop-down lists and they do not work on the iPhone/iPad.  You can see the box with the arrow, but only allows you to enter custom text, no drop-down list fills.  Here is a link to screenshot.  Thanks for any help!

    For the particular shape in question, it was written (probably initially via algorithms of recognition of land) with multiple instances of a drop-down list and a text superimposed on another field.  Because the text field's before the menu drop-down order to field/tab, tap, it is processed first by the Mobile Player.  That's why your experience when you use the Mobile Player is one of a text field.

    The areas of Desktop Reader process in the order opposite of field/tab (order), so the experience the user will see is a drop-down list.

    I can change the Mobile Player in the fields of process as the office, in the reverse of field/tab (order) so that both products are compatible.  This help you in the short term, however.  To make your form work in the short term with the existing Mobile drive, you can remove the text fields that overlap (they are named as "undefined_n", where n is a number).  On a brief look, these text fields that overlap do not seem to serve a purpose (that they seem not to contain a hidden value or participate in javascript, for example); They seem to be the effect of a kind of (imperfect) automated field recognition algorithm.

    Hope this helps,

    My client has an interest in having the STATE form field in the withdrawal form store a string to a field conversion menu drop-down displays the list of States. He only sells to the United States, so there are 50 lists. I don't think it's necessary, but is it possible?

    Hi Jeff,

    As long as her select field name is the same as it is for the text field (and just good to do the same thing for ID) then you can change it.

    Note that if the customer ships internationally is not a viable edition.

  • Drop-down field - when some entries are selected are unavailable another field for data entry

    Hi all

    A sorry again, I am very new to forms and have another question. I have a drop down list which list by selecting certain values I need an another field will not be available if the user can enter data.

    Hopefully this example is logical:

    Drop-down list Champ %
    Outdoor

    Not allowed to enter data

    Previous

    Not allowed to enter data

    Interior

    Not allowed to enter data

    Cotton

    Allowed to enter data

    Wool

    Allowed to enter data

    If someone could give me some examples that would be a great help.

    Thank you very much

    Here is a script that you can use for the validation script custom from the drop-down list. It resets the value of the text box, whenever a change is made to the drop-down list. You can get rid of the line doing it, if you do not want to. Change "text1" in the code to match the name of a text field that you are using.

    Validate a custom for picklist script

    (function () {}

    Get the selected value

    v var = event.value;

    Set up an object to associate status items text box read-only

    var f_state = {}

    'Outside': true,

    'Back': true,

    'Interiors': true,

    'Cotton': false,

    'Wool': false

    };

    Get a reference to the text field

    var f = getField ("text1");

    Clear the text field

    f.Value = "";

    Set the State of read-only text box based on what is selected

    If (v f_state) {}

    f.ReadOnly = f_state [v];

    }

    })();

  • Verification of the text field problem and requiring an option in the drop-down field

    I have a form with several fields that if the user enters information in one or more of the

    fields, I need to check that the drop-down list field is not empty.

    I got this to work, but now I find that if the user deletes the text in the text field, the user always receives the error message. Here is the script I use:

    If

    ((form1.page1.ListFilesFolders.rawValue) ! = null & & (form1.page1.windsNtwkAccess.rawValue) == null);

    {

    xfa.host.setFocus (form1.page1.windsNtwkAccess);

    xfa.host.messageBox ("Please make a selection in the field of Windows network."

    , 'Need to selection' , 1 , 0);

    }

    Thank you

    MDawn

    Makes sense... the field is null when the user deletes the text. You could put a white in these areas as default values and test for this instead of null. Now, when the user empty field, it will be null and will not empty so that the message will not appear.

    Make sense?

  • It is Possible to the box of the card for a drop down field?

    Hello

    So I have a form with about 20 boxes on it that allow our customers to choose what information they want to receive it. Recently, we have created a new field of Contact in Eloqua/SalesForce which, in theory, would allow the boxes to populate the list and then move to Eloqua.

    So my question, is possible to map checkboxes from the drop-down list field of Eloqua? So, allowing me to having spent them in SalesForce.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    John

    Hi John,.

    This is without any doubt. The boxes on the form must be inserted using a box multiple option (called 'Boxes'), which is filled with a selection list (not a field of each box for each item in the box). You can assign the same selection list to contact your field and specify that you want the field to be a multiple selection. Then you can simple map of the form field that collect multiple checkbox data to the name field of the contact with the muti selection list in your form processing steps.

    I hope this makes sense.

  • Make a drop down field selectable, but password protect text

    Hi, we have created a form with several drop-down menus. One of the drop-down menus contains the prices. We have been asked to make this drop switchable - but lock the text, so only the password holders can change the price.

    Is this possible, and if so, how are you?

    Thank you in advance!

    No, it isn't. With the help of player you cannot select an item in a drop-down list,

    change (except if you have enabled the option in the properties of the field that)

    allows the user to enter custom values).

  • VMware Converter Standalone 5.5 does not display a Drop Down Menu for the Type of Destination

    Hi people,

    I try to use VMware Converter Standalone 5.5 for use with VMware Player and am not able to select the Type of Destination of my choice (I like to choose "VMware workstation" or another VMware virtual machine in the drop-down menu "Select the destination type").  Please see the image below where the combo box is not there at all.  Thanks for your help.  Hai

    converter-issue-image.png

    This isn't a bug, it is a limitation of the converter. It is stated in the documentation. Converter considers that any machine under tension like physics. It cannot convert powered on Linux machines to hosted (i.e. Workstation/Fusion) destinations.

    A solution would be to convert it to ESX and then convert the (from) power off the VM power to the workstation.

  • Display a drop-down list value

    Easy question for someone. Difficult question for me. I tried to have a textField display the display value in a drop-down list that is filled with a script based on a selection of button radio. I have a problem with the text field to display something else then the value of the drop-down list selection. I tried the 'value' instead of rawValue but I'm having no luck. Can someone help me?

    Hello

    When it comes to drop-down lists, there are two properties that are at stake. If you have specified the values in the object > linking the palette, then the .rawValue will have access to the bound value.

    What you are after is the display value of the drop-down list (for example, what the user sees).

    Here is an example:
