Specify the colors in the drop down lists

A customer asked that their drop-down menu options are color coded - is it possible? For example, they have a drop down with 3 choices (completed, in progress, not started). They want to assign a color to each option (IE Complete - green, in progress - yellow, not started - red), so that when the form is filled - a glance on the form provides a quick reference about the State of all their projects.  Is this possible? Thank you...

Here is a script that you can use in the validation script customized for the drop down menus. It assumes there is that the three items you mentioned and the background color value red, yellow or green, that will be easier to notice than the color of the font.

// Custom Validate script for dropdown

// Determine the background color
var f_color = color.red;
if (event.value === "In Progress") f_color = color.yellow;
if (event.value === "Complete") f_color = color.green;

// Set this field's background color
event.target.fillColor = f_color;

  • Value selected in the drop-down list, the value border and subform border color

    OK, I'm busy to create a form that has a field drop-down list. There are five values inside the drop-down list. I have also four subforms which contain tables and fields for each option in the drop-down list except the first. Now, I want to put the border and the color of the border of the subform if you have selected the correct value.

    As part of the output, I created the code as follows:

    If (this.rawValue == '5') {}

    this.resolveNode("TextfieldName").presence = "visible"; This affects a visible text... works like a charm

    Optie1.UI.oneOfChild.border.color.value = "255,153,0"; After an example I found Niall

    Optie1.UI.oneOfChild.border.color.thickness = "0,0200" in

    }

    I've changed this in Optie1, is the name of the subform. Somehow it is not applied in the subform. I know I'm wrong, but can't find what I want on the forums. Someone at - it an idea on that?

    Well, managed to resolve myself to play around with the code.

    It should be:

    Optie1.border.edge.color.value and Optie1.border.edge.thickness.

  • The drop-down list changes color with background option selected

    Hello!

    I m stuck with this drop-down menu that I need to have a red background, if the TBD option is active (which is the default) and have no backgrond if no other option is selected.

    drop01.png

    drop02.png

    drop03.png

    The red background is a red rectangle that is visible or hidden, I have all code in the event of modification of the drop-down list:

    if (this.rawValue == "TBD"){
    RectangleRed2.presence = "visible";
}else{
    RectangleRed2.presence = "hidden";
}

    But the thing is that the event checks the value when is changed, so if I'm in the value of TBD and I selected point 1, the recntagle is still visible, because at the moment, I have chosen point 1 value was to be determined, so does not in the way I need to.

    Anys ideas?

    Thank you!

    You must use

    if (xfa.event.newText == "TBD"){
...

    Then it works fine.

    "xfa.event.newText" evaluates to dropdown in the runtime.

    Hope it is useful,

  • XLATLONGNAME from the drop-down list should be a default value in the edit box

    Hello


    I have two fields in a grid, one named "TEST_Type" and one is named 'TEST_Name' edit box
    Use cases, TEST_Name by default will be TEST_Type in Drop Down.

    "TEST_Type" is the translation of edition Table and 'TEST_Name' will contain XLATLONGNAME.

    I do drag XLATLONGNAME of PSXLATITEM table in my grid and make related field and "TEST_Type" a related control field.

    Show LongName according to the value "TEST_Type.

    If the field 'TEST_Name' RowInit, I wrote

    If GetRow(). IsNew and
    No (MYRecord.TEST_NAME. Value) then
    MYRecord.TEST_NAME. Value = GetRow(). GetRecord (Record.PSXLATITEM). GetField (Field.XLATLONGNAME). Value;
    End - If;


    It gives an error

    "Class line method GetRecord account PSXLATITEM is not valid. (2 268)

    MYRecord.TEST_NAME. RowInit

    The recording has been used as a parameter of the specified method. It is not valid for the current object. »

    What is the problem?

    Is there a better solution for this use case?


    Thanks in advance

    I think you mix a few think upwards.

    The drop is on a class with the values of translate. So, when you set the property to the field from the drop-down list page to view the longxlatitem, you are finished.

    If you want to copy the xlatlongvalue for some reason any other areas, use instead the domain object properties.

    & dropdownlownlist = getrecord([YOUR_RECORD]).getfield ([YOUR_FIELD]);
    VALUE = & dropdownlownlist. LongTranslateValue;

  • Subforms making visible depending on what is selected in the drop-down list

    Good day to all;

    Looks like I'm '0' batting today. For some reason I'm not able to get a number of things working today... Maybe I should just write off that day as a loss... ; >)

    Another way; I'm trying, unsuccessfully, to get forms to become visible depending on what is selected from a drop-down list. I tried to use "switch" (see below), but I end up getting the famous error "syntax".

    I also tried an 'if' statement (see below), but that doesn't seem to work either.

    What I would like to ask you is when a user selects 1 of 2 choices 1 2 forms sub becomes visible.

    So, if the user has selected in the drop-down list of the bad and they choose now to select the right pair, I want the form incorrect sub to again become invisible.

    I'd appreciate any help

    switch (this.rawValue)

    {

    case "2" :

    staffing_inter. Presence = 'visible'

    on the other

    staffing_inter. Presence = 'hidden';

    breaking ;

    }

    IF statement

    if (this.rawValue = 2)

    {

    staffing_inter. Presence = 'visible'

    }

    else {

    staffing_inter. Presence = 'hidden';

    }

    Number of things...

    What statements do not use "else". You must specify each value. But you can nest another code in a statement that.

    Using a drop down you need to get the new value when the selection is made.

    Thus (guess what you did 'Specify the item values' liaison for the DDL tab):

    var newValue = this.boundItem(xfa.event.newText);
switch(newValue){
     case "1":
          //code
     break;
     case "2":
          //code
     break;
     //etc.
}

    Or with your statement:

    var newValue = this.boundItem(xfa.event.newText);

if(newValue = 2){
    staffing_inter.presence = "visible"
}
else{
     staffing_inter.presence = "hidden";
}

    HI -.

    I'm a beginner to this bear so please with me.  I know that have been discussed a hundred times but I can't seem to find someone else who is having this specific problem.

    I have v8.2.

    Given that my script was not working, I downloaded the document "Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.0, providing research of the interactive database of forms" to try to see if I can understand what is happening.

    I built exactly as in the document except for the addition of 'clone (1)' as needed based on what I found in other messages on v8.2 and errors before.

    -Specify the name of the table column used for the fill.

    sColDisplayText

    -It is the column of the ListBox display text.

    -Specify the name of the table column used for the fill.

    These variables must be assigned for this script runs correctly.

    var sDataConnectionName = "DataConnection;

    Preview PDF and it connects OK, menu drop down fills properly, but when I click the button, it ALWAYS fills the data from the first record (no matter what is selected in the drop-down list).  It's the same problem I had with my own build.

    Anyone have any ideas of what I have wrong?

    Thank you!

    The other thing, that I just noticed is that I usually clone the entire connection and not each node in the link that you have. Try changing your code for this:

    var nIndex = 0;
    While (xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item (nIndex) .name! = "DataConnection2")

    nIndex = nIndex + 1
    endwhile

    oDB = xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item (nIndex) .racing var (1); pertaining to the specified data connection node
    Configure sql call DB to get the details about MNR

    If (HasValue (SelectID)) then

    oDB.nodes.item (1).query.setAttribute ("text", "commandType");

    sqlString var = Concat ("SELECT * FROM drugs WHERE MRN = '", Ltrim (Rtrim (SelectID.rawValue)), "'")

    oDB.nodes.item (1).query.select.nodes.item (0) .value = sqlString.

    now connect to the DB and get a recording
    oDB.open)
    oDB.close ();

    endif

    Also if you copy and paste code quotes always get screwed up... .you will have to type.

  • Change the image when the drop-down list value form is selected

    I really thought that it would be easier but I can't function.

    I have a consignment of Paypal with a drop-down list. The list to select the color. I want to change an image on the page to display the correct color when the color is selected in the drop-down list. So a black image occurs when black is selected, a red when red - etc...

    I would be very grateful if anyone can share some brief, the browser compatible code. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

    Bill

    You are right that this is not as simple as you might think at first.  You asked for succinct, but there are several steps involved in mode Code (horror!)

    1) first add this script just before the closing tag () on your page head and then insert all your path/imagenames where see you mine.  Notice of the ORDER OF THE IMAGES must match the order of your choice to be called with the list of drop-down selection in your form! :

    2) in second place, in your form, add the below onchange event for thetag.  Note that in this example, the ID on the we will work with the tag is "theImg", change that, as needed.  If youdo not already own one identifying the tag (see further below), just use "theImg".

    So here's a form with a select field.  Use whatever values you need to do this, just add my onchange event as shown:


      <>name = "productColors" id = "productColors" onchange = "diva_imgBySel ('theImg', this.selectedIndex)"> "
       

    3) Finally, you can click on thetag, then click on the Tag/behavior window, click sound + plus sign and select "Preload Images" and adds all imagenames so they will appear more quickly when the selection list is used.

    Hope that all of the senses.

  • I need to rearrange the order of the 'required securities' at the top of the drop-down list bookmark.

    Hi, useful friends Firefox,.

    I need help to reorganize my combo of bookmarks to make things run in the way that I like. I am former fighter user of Firefox (and Mozilla/Composer etc. way back when). I use Firefox 42.0 on openSUSE 13.2. These two are completely up to date. I'm a fan of Firefox, which is the only browser that I use on my laptop.

    My question is about how to prefix some unwanted with "ZZZ -" titles to make sure they appear only at the bottom of the drop-down list of bookmarks, rather than at the top. The problem is that these six tracks only appear on the list box dropdown bookmarks when I press < Alt > + < B >. They do not appear in the window "library / all bookmarks" in a way I can modify them to insert the prefix. The six titles that I want to move to a more appropriate (and less prominent) space in the list are:
    View all bookmarks
    Bookmark this page
    Subscribe to this page
    To bookmark all tabs
    Bookmarks toolbar
    Download bookmark modules

    I won't be taken away entirely optional. That's why I wish they were downstairs. I just want to get them out of sight, since I was a very organized hierarchy within my bookmark system. I always use strikes, never the pointer clicks, allowing access to my favorites. Those with six in my view area when I opened my favorites to get some desired that URL seems unnecessary. By placing a prefix ZZZ - in front of them, they in alphabetical index would be at the bottom of the list, rather than at the top.

    I would like any ideas you have to help me move these six titles.

    Thank you

    Dave

    Those are the elements that appear in the list by default.
    You can try to give them a higher value of - moz-box-ordinal-group to reorder the items and move them down.
    All items have to - moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 by default.
    You can set the number to set a specific order of each of the elements.

    Add code to the file userChrome.css below default @namespace.

    @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu,#bookmarksMenuItemsSeparator {-moz-box-ordinal-group:10}
#bookmarksShowAll, #organizeBookmarksSeparator {-moz-box-ordinal-group:15}

#menu_bookmarkThisPage,
#subscribeToPageMenuitem,
#menu_bookmarkAllTabs {-moz-box-ordinal-group:11}

#menu_unsortedBookmarks {}

    The file userChrome.css (UI) customization and userContent.css (Web sites) are located in the folder of chrome in the Firefox profile folder.
