Tab order problem

Hello

Can someone help me in tab order number, please

Form designed in the following way.

Header and fooetr are designed in the master page and the section of the body is designed on Page (ex: Page1).

The Taborder would be header, body and footer. But first its goes to the article header after this part of the footer and last section of body.

Any ideas would be great.

Thank you

Jay

Hi Jay,.

The tab order is specified by an element of course when you look at the Source XML of the form, there is one in the field/subform pointing to the next in the sequence of tabs.  I find sometimes I get things so mucked up I could better be directed and removing all the and start again.  Without of course, the order of default tab to the next field, which is usually what I want anyway.  It is a macro that will do just that.

function dbg(msg) {
    designer.println(msg.replace(/[\n]/gm, "\r\n") + "\r\n");
}

function contextString(node) {
    var context = node.somExpression;
    context = context.replace(/xfa\[0\]\.template\[0\]\./, '');
    context = context.replace(/\[0\]/g, '');
    return context;
}

function processTemplate(element) {
    var count = 0;

    var elementNodes = element.nodes;
    for (var i = 0; i < elementNodes.length; i++) {
        var childElement = elementNodes.item(i);
        sClassName = childElement.className;

        //dbg("element " + childElement.name + " " + childElement.className + " isContainer=" + childElement.isContainer);
        if (childElement.className === "traversal") {
            childElement.parent.nodes.remove(childElement);
            count++;
        }
        else {
            if (childElement.isContainer ||
       childElement.className === "calculate" ||
       childElement.className === "validate" ||
       childElement.className === "breakAfter" ||
       childElement.className === "breakBefore" ||
       childElement.className === "event" ||
       childElement.className === "proto" ||
       childElement.className === "script" ||
       childElement.className === "traversal" ||
       childElement.className === "traverse" &&
       childElement.className !== "variables") {
                count += processTemplate(childElement);
            }
        }
    }
    return count;
}

try {
    var nStart = (new Date()).getTime();
    var count = processTemplate(xfa.template);
    var nEnd = (new Date()).getTime();
    dbg("Removed " + count.toString() + " traversal elements");
    dbg("elapsed: " + (nEnd - nStart).toString() + " m/s");
}
catch (e) {
    dbg(e.message + "\nat:" + e.line + "\nsource:" + e.source.split("\n")[e.line - 1]);
}

  • Unable to set the tab order for a typedef

  • Why is-tab order incorrect in the browser but OK in Acrobat and Adobe Reader?

    I created a form to fill out and set the tab order to online.  It works correctly in Acrobat and Adobe Reader, but when I download on my site, all browsers use a different tab order.  I set the language than English.  Sort of behavior RTL in the browser, it is also somewhat randomly.  I have created several forms in the past and never had this happen before.  This form was started as a Word document that I used the import form creator.  Any ideas on how to force it to use the correct tab order?  Thank you.

    Many browsers (almost all) use their own internal PDF plugin by default. These plugins are known to have many bugs, and it's probably just another. Report the problem to the manufacturers of this plugin.

  • Tab order changes when the file is downloaded from the internet

    I have a couple of files created in InDesign CS6, saved in PDF format, modification of LiveCycle ES2 to allow a user to complete the forms. On my desk, the tab order works as I dictated, during the validation of the online form, the changes in the order tab.

    Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Yes. The Acrobat plugin is no longer compatible with Chrome, then when you open the file it using its internal PDF plugin, which is known to be below normal.

    This could explain the problem that you see. You must report it to the developers of Chrome.

  • New rows in the table jumped in the tab order. LiveCycle ss4

    Hello

    I built a form with a few tables (all in subforms flowed) each of which has an action to add a new instance of the row if the last cell is not empty. I have done this before in other forms and had no problem, but for some reason any in this shape when I have the tab of the cell and it adds a new line, he puts the cursor in the field after the table, the new line to jump. My tab order is set to auto, so I don't know why there is not tab in the new line.

    I found some discussions about what is happening in 8 Designer, but they were resolved by using subforms flowed and assuring that the subform global went (check!) or automatic tab order (check!).

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Personally I don't really like the way he behaves, but if that's what you really want. You can use the following code for the output of the last field of the line event...

    TextField3::exit - (JavaScript, client)

    If (this.parent.index == _Row1.count - 1 & this.rawValue == null) {}

    _Row1.removeInstance (this.parent.index);

    } ElseIf (this.parent.parent.resolveNode ("Row1 [" + (_Row1.count - 1) + "" "]". "+ this.name") .rawValue!) = null) {}

    _Row1.addInstance (1);

    }

    Otherwise, if you do not, I suggest you have a subform/cell within the table with one (+ /-) button to add / remove lines

    It's easier to use

    cmdDel::click - (JavaScript, client)

    If (_Row1.count > Row1.occur.min) {}

    _Row1.removeInstance (this.parent.index);

    }

    cmdAdd::click - (JavaScript, client)

    _Row1.addInstance (1);

  • Why are my missing buttons on the tab order list?

    Little weird problem here - I checked my project for the accessibility/508 compliance and noticed that on some of my buttons tab order was somewhat paradoxical. Everything worked and was working properly, but the order was switched off. I open the slide and choose the tab order to reconfigure and found multiple instances of one or more missing buttons in the drop-down list. As I said, given that all the buttons are designed in the same way (text buttons) and they are all available when I test it in the browser, I do not understand how Captivate is not 'see' in the command tab for interactive on the slide sequence - any ideas as to what is happening here?

    Justenuf

    I had to created slides that had buttons incorporated into groups that only appeared when some variables have been triggered or a shared action them changed to 'show' and that caused the "glitch" I saw above.

    So, here's the deal: when you create groups that divide, the buttons, the ordering tool tab in the drop-down slide fails - he can see that the first series of Group of buttons, the rest are not displayed. The only way to the tab order your buttons separated into groups is to do it within the time limit (to the less the more updated version of Cp8). Tab order (at least in the project I'm dealing with right now) is shown from the bottom to the top of the timeline. In the image below, the first button that is activated by tabbing is box 448 group 456, the last is box 446 group 454. (click the box never gets turned on, it is hidden for accessibility purposes) Before someone asks why I use not only intelligent forms for buttons - they aren't tabbable and don't meet my needs.

  • Is there a way to force the tab order to jump a page and then return to this page in a form?

    I have a several page with a required page layout form.  The problem with the current layout of the form, is that I find my users get to '20' page, and it seems like the natural shape... end and stop the seizure of data and submit.  The problem is, there is a field for additional form on the next page that may have need of important information.

    The information contained in this final field is present only in about 10% of the observations, but are crucial to the file, if necessary.  As I said, the page layout is necessary.

    Is it possible to change the tab order from the last form field on the page "19" to the form field on the page "21", and then again the fields in the form on the page "20"?

    It's pretty simple to implement. Until the event OnBlur in the field, you can enter this code:

    this.getField("OtherFieldName").setFocus ();

    Of course, this will cause the other field to be tabulated in even if the user doesn't click tab to leave the field, a few clicks out of it...

  • Change the tab order in a form without change or move the fields here and there

    Hi all

    I did a complex questionnaire and is almost complete. Now the problem is that when I converted this file from Word, many fields have been detected automatically and their tab order / numbering has been enabled by Acrobat itself. The remaining fields in the form (in different places) were created by myself. Now in the tab order, automatically detected fields are priority and areas that I created, are much different from the corresponding fields in the Numbering tab. For your understanding, I am including the screenshot too. Please see the Numbering tab in the image after field # 7, there are field n ° 28, then area # 26 and then field # 29, which is not the way it should be.

    Please indicate any solution (if there is) on your as soon as possible.

    Thanks in anticipation!

    Have you opened the 'Pages' navigation panel and looked at the options on the page?

    There should be a series of options such as 'Row', 'Column' or 'no '. Select the 'line' and see if the shape tablets as you want.

  • TAB order of parent

    Hello

    I tried to change the styles tab of model parent 'two level tab' theme 23 (Crimson). I'm done with the tab order of the parent in the opposite direction.

    See the example: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=61234

    workspace: ASAWS
    Login: dev_user / dev123

    I have a 'PrintParentTabCSS' application process that prints the dominant parent tab CSS styles. If you disable this process, you could see the restored parent TAB order.

    Don't know what I'm doing wrong. I know it's a bit complicated to ask to take a look, but really grateful if someone could give a clue.

    See you soon

    Don't know what I'm doing wrong. I know it's a bit complicated to ask to take a look, but really grateful if someone could give a clue.

    The problem is the application float: right to the li in this rule:

    div.uParentTabs,
    div.uParentTabs ul,
    div.uParentTabs ul li {
      display: block;
      float: right;
    }
    

    Floats are applied in the order of the source. This rule floats the first item in the list to the right, which makes the element on the right, then it floats the second list item to the extent of the law it can go - that is to the left of the first element, and so on.

    How to approach the question is to float the tab container (div/ul) right to position the tabset, and floating tabs (li) left of the container. This positions the tab to the right and causes the tabs view horizontally, but maintains the order of source code.

    In effect the required rules are already in the original theme / CSS, so the solution is to remove the useless that follows:

    div.uParentTabs  {
      margin:  0px 8px;
    }
    div.uParentTabs,
    div.uParentTabs ul,
    div.uParentTabs ul li {
      display: block;
      float: right;
    }
    nav.uPageTabs {
      margin: 0 0 8px 0;
    }
    

    I develop a new theme based on "Thème Crimson 23" and when he's ready is going to be applied for many applications already in place, it's just that I don't want to go and change the order of the parent tabs in all apps.

    If you develop/change the theme completely the recommended approach is to make a copy of the basic theme and modify it directly. Try to apply substitutions of this magnitude is likely to prove too complicated.

  • Complete loss of the tab order in the form

    I got a MS Word document (2003) I have open in my MS Word 2010 and saved as a .pdf document.  Then I open the .pdf file in Acrobat Pro v 9.4.7 and used the forms tools to create a form to fill out.  My order of tab shows exactly as I want it to perform.  I close the form.

    I can open this form on my computer - using the TWO Adobe Acrobat Pro AND Adobe Reader 9 (v 9.4.7 also) and the form performs exactly as I intend to.

    However, when I tested it by work colleagues, the form of tab does not perform as expected.  They use Adobe Acrobat Pro v 8.1.3 and Acrobat Reader v 9.0.0.

    Can someone help me understand why this is happening and how I can fix this problem?  Me and one of our developers have spent hours on this and can even lead to the root of the problem and still less resolve the problem.

    Thank you!

    It's weird. I don't see the same things you do. The tab order works very well for me in Acrobat (9.4), Reader (9.4) and player (10.1.1).

    When I converted it to an XFA form opening in LiveCycle Designer (8.2.1), the tab order is correct. Note that when you do so, it comments on all the JavaScripts and makes other changes and translates a file of nearly 7 times more.

    A test, try to change the tab order of the form v1 'Order of the lines' in Acrobat and save to a new file. Does make a difference? It would also be interesting to see what happens if the user updates to the latest version of the player.

  • Manual tab order does not

    I'm laying a new form in Acrobat Pro 9. (Machine in Windows XP, Acrobat freshly reinstalled and updated). Because I have several groups of similar areas, I use copy and paste, give a unique name to each field (using a system of numbering... field1day, field2day, etc.). I drag / drop to change the tab order. HOWEVER, the tab order is not 'stick '. It will be correct for a minute and then return to a State "from the tab order. Sometimes the field moves in reality in the tab order, listing, sometimes field shows it is in the right place, but the order of "Show tab numbers" is incorrect.

    I was pulling my hair out trying to get this to work. I used the wizard to initially create the fields and do not want to use LiveCycle Designer if possible.

    Can someone PLEASE?

    There are a number of bugs related to the tab order that are to be decided. This all started when they changed the way you set the tab order by dragging the names of fields up and down in the list. The order can be messed up simply by moving a field and change the field properties and probably other things. Adobe has had these problems for some time and have neglected to remedy. With each new update, I submit another bug report, like others, but apparently he setting is not a priority.

    This problem is an important reason to keep a copy of Acrobat 7 autour, which has a much better way to put the tab for fields order. The other day I had to set the tab order of a form that had more than 500 fields on a page (including the three columns of fields with boxes/article 5 for a total of 500 individual boxes). It would have taken me hours of boredom to correct using the current method, but I was able to fix it in 10 minutes with Acrobat 7.

    With the current system, simply ignore the tab order while developing the form and put in place close to the last that do you with the form.

  • Tab order!

    Y at - it a bug in the option tab in LC Designer 8.2 order?  I can't some fields to move upwards or downwards as I need them (no matter what I do).  I'm pulling my hair out!  The old version of Designer has an option where you can click on the fields (while holding down the Ctrl key) in the order you want.  It was working fine.  But 8.2 seems to have serious problems.

    Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get this feature working properly?

    I have 34 fields of the form and (for example), I can't get the signature field on the bottom of the form for the field 34th in the tab order.

    Help!

    Not that I know of... . If you want to send the form and the tab order you want [email protected] I can take a look when I get the chance.

  • How to change the tab order of an array of clusters?

    How to change the tab order of an array of clusters?  I have the cluster arranged into a table in the front panel.   The element of the cluster passes horizontal and array element passes vertically.   When I press the tab key, the cursor will move to the item next to the table instead of the next item in the cluster (down to the place overall).

    so you have an array of clusters or cluster and the separate table?

  • Change the tab order of controls installation changes

    Hello

    When designing my UIR for a new project, I realized that when I use the function "change the controls' to change the attributes of several controls at once, the tab order changes.

    I noticed that, because the constants of the UIR are essential for my application and they are changed automatically in the header file according to the tab order.

    If I change the attributes one by one, then the tab order is preserved.

    Is it really a bug or am I missing a point here?

    (I'm with CVI 8.5.1)

    Thank you for the provision of the UIR and for reporting this bug. Unfortunately, it has been reported too late to get into the next version 9.0, but we will try to fix it in the maintenance release.
