Show/hide video Clips with a drop-down list box. Help!

Hi all

I was hoping someone here could point me in the right direction with this.

I have a combo box that loads data from an xml file I want to use to toggle the visibility of various clips on the stage.

I should do in ActionScript (can I?) or should it be done in the components Inspector, or can it still be done this way.

Thanks - snake

The code below, there are three movieclips involved, with names of "mc1", "mc2" and "mc3" instance assigned to them as data value of each item of the combobox. The combobox control has an instance name of "cbox". In this case, given that the combobox control is the first item selected by default, the first movieclip, mc1, appears. If you study the code, you will come if all goes well to understand it enough for this model to your specific needs.

  • Show/hide fields based on the drop-down list

    Hello

    I'm trying to show/hide subforms with a drop-down list selection. I found a lot of information on the subject and ended up with what my script:

     form1.Page1.Division::exit - (JavaScript, client)
    
    switch (Page1.Division.rawValue)
    {
       case "1":
       SubformZZI.presence = "visible";
       SubformZZR.presence = "hidden";   
          break;
     
       case "2":
       SubformZZI.presence = "hidden";
       SubformZZR.presence = "visible";       
          break;
    }
    
    

    However, it does nothing when a selection is made in the drop-down list. I have the "SubformZZI" initially defined as 'Visible' and the 'SubformZZR', originally defined as "hidden".

    Any suggestions?

    Kind regards

    Check if the form is saved in dynamic form. File-> save as and choose dynamic for the type of shape...

    Other that that, you should check if you have given the values for the selection of the drop-down list as '1' and '2' in the tab of the control's binding.

  • show/hide fields based on the drop-down list of choices

    I have a field from the drop-down list with three choices. Based on the selection, I need a specific text form field to appear and the others to stay hidden. (Or if it makes the code cleaner, the resulting field could be a drop-down list, too, with the selected choice.) I don't know Java well enough to extrapolate the code from the examples online and it fit my forms. I can provide an example of form. Thanks in advance for your help.

    There are ways to run this.  the easiest for you would be to add this script to the event (calculation of the Properties tab) to calculate the field that must be hidden.  Take notes, all "/ /" is some tips for you to understand the code.  You will need to put this script in all the areas you want to replicate the behavior, change the value depending on what you want to accomplish.  the word 'event' means myself to make you understand.

    If (this.getField("dropdown").value == 'put value here') {//replace "drop down" with the name of the drops}

    Event.Target.Display = display.visible;

    }

    else {}

    Event.Target.Display = display.hidden;

    }

    This works if you have a small amount of fields.  If you manage to have a large number of similar fields, let me know because there are other, faster ways.

  • Help with the drop-down list boxes

    Hello.  I am working on a form that contains three drop-down lists that have different names.  All three have the same point selections, but I want that each of the three to automatically fill in its respective field (it is essentially a price sheet where up to three elements may be selected and you'd see every price indicated in front of it).  I got concerning depression the 1st drop to fill its field using the script "setvalues.

    However, when I try to create the following scripts for two other menus, it seems that I finally, create all three drop-down lists that all fill in the very field that corresponds with the latest script, that I added, instead of the respective field. To clarify, after 1 was created, it works normally.  When I create a second script for the 2nd menu drop-down & price field, both drop-down lists only affect the 2nd price field.

    I assured the fields have different names, and these names are specified in each script.  I do not understand why acrobat would allow, when the script specifies the field that I entered.  It is essentially in a field that isn't in the script.  Of course, I am a novice, so any idea how works this process is very appreciated!

    Thanks for your reply, George!   I really love it!  What I was doing wrong placed the code in the javascript Document, so it was essentially apply the script all dropdowns.  What I did instead was delete and go in each drop-down list individual and added the script as the custom format script.  Just in case someone else did the same thing, here's the script that I use [details omitted to save space...]

    };

  • How to start the message with the drop-down list box selection?

    I'm trying to trigger a message box when I select 'No' as a selection of drop-down list by using the change event:

    If (this.rawValue = "No") {xfa.host.messageBox ("Please try again.", "Error")}

    However, it fires even when I select 'Yes.' Perhaps, it may be due to the fact that the following script is in the event "exit":

    If (this.) RawValue == null) {This.execValidate () ;}

    You have a syntax error. You want to change this.rawValue = 'No' to be this.rawValue == 'no '. In your script this.rawValue = 'No', you set the value of the field to be not so it will always be true in fact.

    Hello

    I'm trying to create a PDF for the purposes of the information and then print it.  I have very limited skills with Acrobat 8, basically what I have gotten myself and I encountered a problem with my drop-down list boxes.  Some of the sentences that I put in the boxes are too long and I have not been able to figure out how to wrap the text, or use multiple lines.  I need all my data to display.  Can someone explain, in simple terms, if possible, how this can be accomplished, or provide an alternative.  I have read several posts but were not able to work where to start with it.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!

    Hello everyone,

    I am facing a problem with the drop-down lists in my application, I have 4 drop-down lists one under the other. The main problem follows here, the second list is being covered by the first list when the first list fell down. How to get rid of it, any suggestions please,

    Thank you and happy new year.

    You must listen to the update and then change the order of objects.  Seems odd that RIM does not perform this themselves because it is a problem long been known.  A few other controls have similar problems.

  • How to use spawning with a drop-down list and a table area

    Hello

    I have a form that I need to build pages.  As it is now, I have a table in document and a drop-down list box.  When a selection is made in the drop-down list box, the StateAmt field is filled with the table.  This set works fine now, but I need to be able to make this code work with pages having engineered and need a bit of help.

    It's my javascript document:

    var gState = new Array //Create a reference to a new array

    load the table with quantities for each State

    gState ['AL'] = 40

    gState ['AK'] = 40

    gState ["AR"] = 40

    gState ["z"] = 25

    gState ['CA'] = 25

    .. .and so on, I deleted the most to make the shorter script here

    It's my script custom shot to a combo box "gstate" (FYI, I've added the initials of the State in the tab options in combo box)

    var stateamt = this.getField ("G876. StateAmt')

    If (event.changeEx to gState)

    stateamt. Value = gState [event.changeEx]

    This works very well for one page, but when I add another page (model laid) nothing happens after you make a selection in the drop-down list box.  I don't know I need to edit the script due to spawning change the domain names on each page, but I don't know how.  I tried to rename the combo gState1 and using this script (which does not work)

    Fna var = event.target.name.split(".");

    var fp = fna.length > 1? "fna [0] +". ' ' + fna [1] + ". » : » « ;"

    var stateamt = this.getField(fp_+_"G876_StateAmt").name / / (this is G876. StateAmt in the original formula)

    var = this.getField(fp_+_"gState1").name //(this is gState GST on the original form)

    If (event.changeEx in GST)

    stateamt. Value = gst [event.changeEx]

    If anyone can help me with this, I would be very grateful.

    Thank you

    Lisa

    I fugured it myself. It works:

    Fna var = event.target.name.split(".");

    "var fp = fna.length > 1? fna [0] +". ' ' + fna [1] + ". » : » « ;"

    var stateamt = this.getField (fp + "G876_StateAmt")

    If (event.changeEx to gState)

    stateamt. Value = gState [event.changeEx]

    I didn't totally understand the script and trying to change the wrong part.  It is still using the gState table and I needed to change the text box to get the information in the table.

  • Modification of the properties-type def drop-down list box

    I have a group of 32 cases of a def type. The def type contains several different types of control. What I have to do is to change the properties of the list box for each of the type defs. Normally, I would create an array of references to change the properties for each of the type defs, but when I try this I can not access the properties of string [] for combo box selections. The only way I found to fix it is to create a reference for each individual drop-down list box item. It is labour, since I'll have 32 elements. Is there a way to beeter to do this? The first screenshot shows the issui I'll have, not being able to change the properties of specific elements within each of the def type at runtime through a control [] array. The second screenshot shows the only solution I've found so far, which is not very practical.

    You will need to set up (for a more specific class) control to a type of combo box for the particular control [] index that has the combobox control if you want to access the drop-down list.

    You can also access the combobox in a cluster based directly, rigth click on the control reference and a link to the element cluster directly.

    The last option is to make the strictt of typdef will fill all instances with the channel list [] given that it is a strict property.

    the approach is based on the weather, you plan on changing the list during execution.

  • Reg - key event "F1" in the drop-down list box

    Hello

    Requirement:

    I need that to launch a browser window press the 'F1' key during the video (swf) has the focus. I did and it works very well for me in the web application.

    Problem statement:

    When a film was released and with focus in "Combo" (which has the list of items begins with A letter Z) control then, I pressed the 'F1' key but the browser window has been launched, instead "main action from the drop-down list box event fired and the article begins with the letter 'P' has been selected in the combo box." So now again once I hit 'F1', the browser window launched according to my condition.

    This behavior occurs whenever launched film has the focus in the "combo box"; otherwise, if the focus is on another control as TextInput etc, no problem for me. A more information, if the drop-down list box is not no matter what element does begin with the letter 'P' so no problem for me.

    I tried to understand the behavior of the combo, but again, I have no idea. Please share your knowledge/thoughts.

    Environment:

  • Have the drop-down list boxes become visible depending on the selection in a previous drop-down list box?

    Hi, im doing a form that only shows some options based on the previous selections.

    So far I have buttons which allow a user to select a specific product, and then by using the drop-down combo boxes select some optional features.

    I then have a simple javascript code that bears the name of a product at a price (i.e. the user selects product 'A', the review sections shows priced at $ 99).

    My problem is with additional customization options that depend on previous choices.

    Is it possible to have some drop-down list boxes become visible depending on the selection in a previous drop-down list box? If yes how could I impliment it?

    Currently my best idea is to have a button that could ask the user if he or she had previously chosen a certain selection and then reveal areas of correct drop-down list accordingly.

    Thank you

    Hello

    With a small change I think that the code works as expected. I changed your mainDD.value to event.value, as on the validate event the mainDD.value property cannot be updated as expected.

    script

    this.getField("Dropdown2").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Dropdown3").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Dropdown4").display = display.hidden;

    Switch (event.value)

    {

    case "a":

    this.getField("Dropdown2").display = display.visible;

    break;

    case "b":

    this.getField("Dropdown3").display = display.visible;

    break;

    case 'c ':

    this.getField("Dropdown4").display = display.visible;

    break;

    by default:

    break;

    }

    end of script

    Hope this helps
