Text fields to expand to accommodate the text

Hello

I would like to create text fields in form that are small at first, but grow to accommodate more text.  I know I can create a text field and I text resize when it is running out of room, but this is not what my client wants.  Also, the shape and the text can flow back on new pages?

Thank you very much

Pat

This is not possible with PDF forms created in Acrobat, that in those created using LiveCycle Designer.

  • Why extend a timed loop always expands diagram in the same direction?

    I just noticed a behavior of wiring diagram in LabVIEW 9 I love not really for.  I have several parallel call loops on my diagram and want to do a little to add code in their breast.  When I drag one of the other side to expand it, my whole wiring diagram expands to accommodate the drag.  However, when I am developing one of the others in the newly created space, she AGAIN extend my digraph together in the same direction.  Why do what there already is plenty of space to expand to created by the first operation "click and drag".  This problem can be avoided?  If so, how?

    Ah, the forum of OR is a source of deep wisdom and knowledge

    Please read this thread for a solution.

    BTW. you don't need programming/reset this option each time if you want to only timed loops to have this disabled. You can set this option by the structure after a fall by using the context menu.

  • Year (only) extracted from field Date and display in the text field

    I need extract the year from a field of date entered by the user and display the year in a text field. Can someone help me with the correct script to do this?

    Hello

    It is quite easy to achieve with FormCalc.

    In you the output of the date fields event add the following code:

    textField1 = Num2Date( Date2Num($.formattedValue, "MM/DD/YYYY"), "YYYY")
    

    Note: This example assumes that your date field formats the date with "MM/DD/YYYY". You may need to change the schema to make it work for your purpose.

  • Copy the text in the field to other areas in the same PDF format?

    Is it possible to give the user an option to copy the text entered in certain areas to other areas in the same PDF? I want to do it is because I have the user fill in several fields of address (address, city, State, zip) and I have another section to ask a physical address (address, city, State, zip). I would like to users the ability to click on a button (?) to automically fill in the fields of physical address if the address is the same.

    Thank you

    Derek

    Here's a line of code that copies the text from the text field to the other. You can use it in the mouse event to the top of a button and add as many lines as required:

    // Copy value of one field to another
    getField("text2").value = getField("text1").valueAsString;
    

    Replace "text2" and "text1" with real field names that you use.

  • Field question (long) list of the industry and the text

    two questions

    List of industry
    1. I want to create a list of choices cascading by industry (secondary sector) list, but the list of industry isn't in the cascading drop-down list. Is this a limitation of the current list of industry? If it can be done, how?

    Text (Long)
    1. the long text field is displayed as the same size as the text field short. Is there a way to set the display to a bigger size? For example Can I updated the display height 4 to display this field as 4 times the normal size?
    2. at the bottom of the layout, 3 step wizard (Field Layout), there is a section called 'Long text fields. Is it possible to add additional fields to this section? Is it possible to have more of the memo and another field (for example, a larger text field) per page?

    There are some out of the box reports and dashboards that use a list of choice in the industry. If you plan to use a custom instead drop-down list, and this field is going to be the key, I recommend that it is a field lookup indexed.

  • What are the security settings to lock a form with fields to fill and still allow someone drive to fill in the fields as as to save the form and print it?

    What are the security settings to lock a form with fields to fill and still allow someone drive to fill in the fields as as to save the form and print it?

    You want to allow someone to open your document and fill in the form (the fields that you have created), but not change or edit the form, right? Here is the answer - assuming you use Acrobat Pro and someone will open the PDF with the Acrobat Reader 9 minimum and more:

    Tools > Protection > encrypt< encrypt="" with="">

    Select YES to change security.

    Opens in a new window:

    Do not select NOT open the Document (or will require a password to open the document.)

    SELECT: Permissions (check the box next to ' Restrict editing and printing of the document. ")

    Change the following 2 settings in the drop-down list box:

    Printing allowed: select high resolution

    Changes allowed: select commenting on, fill in the fields on the form and signature of signature fields
    Selected leave: "enable access text for playback devices to screen for people with visual impairments.

    Change password Permissions (insert a password)

    Leave all the other settings alone in 'Options '.

    OK - OK

    Again enter the Permissions password (the one you entered above)

    OK - OK

    Save the PDF file to apply security [notice that (SECURED0 will appear after the title of the document]

  • How to check the existence of field in a chain at the level of the header?

    Hello


    I have a bunch of fields on my_form, just for example here in this announcement I'm on U.S. State names, say for example.

    I have 3 domains, their names are as below

    1) NY,

    2) CA,

    (3) TX

    I placed a hidden his name, a text field is FGL (I mean, the gray field list), uses this GFL for my purpose of programming

    Since the back-end (in our case, its an ERP - SAP) am filling/filling this field GFL, say for example... its data looks like, CA TX (I mean, am concatenating the names of State with a separation of a space)

    (FYI... I already have some piece of JS in my_form INITIALIZATION and for certain other purposes docReady event)

    Now my requirement is as below,

     

    (1) LOOP all objects domain (here they are like state names) of my_form, then check if their name (NY) existing data of GFL... If exisitng (in our case, its not existing) pls shaded with readOnly... If not existing

    (in our case, its not existing) pass the coloring and readOnly, go to the next loop / iteration / state / field

    Actually, I can achieve my requirement by putting the JS in initialization event each object field as mmee below, (but I have about 200 fields in my_form, that's why I want to put all the field objects of my_form in one piece of code at the level of the header in a generic way in loop),

    var myStateName = / NY /;

    var returnValue = GFL.search (myStateName);

    If (returnValue! = - 1) {;} / / This state/field/object is found in the list of fields of gray, so dimmed with readOnly

    this.ui.oneOfChild.border.fill.color.value = "192,192,192."

    This.Access = "readOnly";


    };

    For certain other requirements, one of the experts provided below JS in these forums, as below

    function findNodes (vNode) {}

    If (vNode.className = 'field') {}

    If (vNode.isPropertySpecified ("name") = true) {}

    If (.search(/_U$/g) vNode.getAttribute ('name')! ==-1) {}

    / / Script to run, when a match is found

    ...

    }

    }

    }

    for (var i = 0; i < vNode.nodes.length; i += 1) {}

    findNodes (vNode.nodes.item (i));

    }

    }

    findNodes (xfa.form);

    In fact, I tried to change the JS above according to my needs, but its does not work, please provide me with the correct JS according to my requirement.

    Thank you

    Try this:

    function findNodes (vNode) {}

    If (vNode.className = 'field') {}

    If (vNode.isPropertySpecified ("name") = true) {}

    var myStateName = new RegExp (vNode.name);

    var returnValue = GFL.search (myStateName);

    If (returnValue! =-1) {}

    this.ui.oneOfChild.border.fill.color.value = "192,192,192";

    This.Access = "ReadOnly";

    }

    else {}

    this.ui.oneOfChild.border.fill.color.value="255,255,255";//whatever color is free access

    This.Access = "Open";

    }

    }

    }

    for (var a = 0;<>

    findNodes (vNode.nodes.item (a));

    }

    }

  • Fields from painting hidden on the screen

    Hello

    I have a screen that adds custom himself fields. Custom fields contain information downloaded before the loading screen and an image that is downloaded from a PHP script, when the field is painted. Currently, what happens is that when you scroll down, and a new field is revealed, it runs the paint method, which downloads the image and stores it in memory.

    What I want to do, is have a default image for all objects, and have two sons: one that downloads photos while the user is using this screen, and another thread that redraws the fields if their images were downloaded. This is the code that sets up the screen:

    public void CreateIncidentList(ResponseGroup rg) {   for (int i = 0; i < rg.getIncidentsUBound(); i++) {        IncidentListItem ili;     try {         ili = new IncidentListItem(rg.getIncident(i));            add(ili);         //ili.invalidateLaneBitmap(); //XXX: Do we need to do this to force it to paint blank lanes the first time?         } catch (Exception e) {            continue;        }        if (i < (rg.getIncidentsUBound() - 1)){            add(new SeparatorField());            }    }
    
      threadLaneBitmapDownloader = new Thread(LaneDownloader);  threadLaneBitmapRepainter = new Thread(LaneRepainter);    threadLaneBitmapDownloader.start();   threadLaneBitmapRepainter.start();    try {     threadLaneBitmapDownloader.join();    } catch (InterruptedException e) {        e.printStackTrace();  } try {     threadLaneBitmapRepainter.join(); } catch (InterruptedException e) {        e.printStackTrace();  }}
    

    Here is the Downloader executable:

    private Runnable LaneDownloader = new Runnable(){
    
    public void run() {
        //Manager m = me.getMainManager();
        int numIncidentListItems = getFieldCount();
        IncidentListItem ili;
        Incident i;
    
        for(int x = 0; x < numIncidentListItems; x++){
            try{
                ili = (IncidentListItem) getField(x);
                i = ili.getIncident();
                for(int counter = 0; counter < i.getUBoundLocalIncidentInformation(); counter++){
                    if(i.getLocalIncidentInformation(counter).getLaneBitmap() == LocalIncidentInformation.blankLane){
                        i.getLocalIncidentInformation(counter).downloadLaneBitmap();
                    }
                }
            } catch (ClassCastException e){
                continue;
            }
        }
    }
    
    };
    

    This is the executable Repainter:

    private Runnable LaneRepainter = new Runnable(){
    
       public void run() {       while(threadLaneBitmapDownloader.isAlive()){          Manager m = me.getMainManager(); //Don't know if this is correct!         int numIncidentListItems = getFieldCount();           IncidentListItem ili;         Incident i;
    
              for(int x = 0; x < numIncidentListItems; x++){             try{                  ili = (IncidentListItem) getField(x);                 i = ili.getIncident();                    if(ili.getPaintedLaneBitmap() == LocalIncidentInformation.blankLane){                     final IncidentListItem mIli = ili;                        UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeAndWait(new Runnable(){                                public void run () {                                  mIli.invalidateLaneBitmap();                                  mIli.setPaintedLaneBitmap(mIli.getIncident().getLocalIncidentInformation(0).getLaneBitmap());                             }                         });                   }                 try {                    Thread.sleep(100);                 }                 catch (InterruptedException ioe) {                        System.out.println(ioe.getMessage());                 }
    
                   } catch (ClassCastException e){                   continue;             }         }     } }
    
    };
    

    What I want to accomplish is to allow the user to scroll the fields while the images are uploaded and refreshing while scrolling. IncidentListItems are wrappers for field for objects of Incident which is where the image is stored. There is also a field called paintedLaneBitmap, which is supposed to store the picture that was painted when the IncidentListObject is created. This should normally be the image of blankLane. The idea is so that only one thread download background images and another thread checks to see if laneBitmap of the object of the IncidentListItem Incident is different from being painted and repainted the field.

    How can I accomplish this?

    Thank you very much in advance.

    Sorry I did not yet look your code because I would actually do what you want a different way.

    Here's a quick suggestion.

    Have a Thread dealing with your downloads.  He works outside a queue, you add the pictures you want to download in the queue.

    The queue is just a vector of objects.  Each object contains enough information for the Downloader to get and keep the useful image somewhere.  There also a "passable".  The executable is responsible for the update of the screen.

    If your thin wire of downloading an image, it's simply an invokeLater on the floor, which then becomes responsible for the update of the screen.

    So there is no vote, no loop, you use notify/waiting on the download Thread so it uses all resources except if we work to make it.

    There are many many variations on this theme, but I hope it's enough to make you rethink how you treatment works, that he will do what you want more efficiently.

  • calculation fields do not work on the web

    I created a pdf to a word doc form.  I tested it and all fields of computing work very well, but then I'm going to post on our Web site and all calculation fields do not work.  The formatting in the field appears as well, which means that when I created the form to fill out that I made the fields of theses to represent a monetary unit (e.g. $5.00) and when I post on the web it appears simply as a number (5) and nothing in this column adds up.

    Any suggestions?

    No, you can't get them to work on any browser. Chrome has the most support for PDF and JavaScript forms, but it is not as comprehensive as Acrobat/Reader. Consider educate users to directly open the form in Adobe Reader.

  • Get the field to remain Virgin until the user enters the value in the previous field used in the calculation

    I work on a PDF form and am stuck on one of my calculations. There are two fields 'desired Start Date", which is a date entered by the user. The "desired end" date is one year from date entered by the user. I figured out - however, before the user enters a date, I want this field remains empty. Currently, it fills with 01/00/000. How can I get this field to calculate not unless a date is entered by the user? So far, I tried this but can not get the blank to stay:

    If the field 'Desired Start Date' is empty, leave 'to' field blank

    var myStartDate = new Date (this.getField("Desired_Effective_Date").value);

    If (((myStartDate == 0) & & (getField("myStartDate").valueAsString = "")) {event.value = "";})

    If the field "Desired Start Date" is an effective date, use the date to calculate one year after the date of entry.

    }

    else {this.getField("to").value = util.printd ("mm/dd/yyyy", new Date (myStartDate.getFullYear () + 1, myStartDate.getMonth (), myStartDate.getDate ()))}

    Try the following than the calculation script custom field "to".

    Get the value of the date field beginning

    var sStartDate = getField("Desired_Effective_Date").valueAsString;

    If the start date field is not empty...

    If {(sStartDate)

    Converts a date in a date object string

    Kai = util.scand ("mm/dd/yyyy", sStartDate);

    Add a year

    oDate.setFullYear (oDate.getFullYear () + 1);

    Set this field to the calculated date value

    Event.Value = util.printd ("mm/dd/yyyy", anyway);

    } else {}

    This field blank because the input field is empty

    Event.Value = "";

    }

    You may need to change the date format "mm/dd/yyyy", I used to match the formats of date fields.

    Developed using some of the Javascript predefined functions that we offer, it's just JavaScript and jQuery.

    But here is an example.

    (Use Internet Explorer F12 developer tools to find the IDS of the fields to work with.)

    $(document).ready(function() { 
    
        if (UI_Ext_isSpecInEditMode && UI_Ext_HasWorkflowBehavior('1005'))
        {
           //normally, we can use jquery to retrieve elements ($('#ifOfInput).val()), but it seems to fail when the id and the name attributes are the same. so we just use javascript document.getElementById instead.
           var reasonForChange = document.getElementById('ctl01$SpecSummaryctl1$ctlCollapsibleContentContainer$ctl00$txtChangeReason')
    
           if (reasonForChange != null) { 
    
                if (reasonForChange.value == null || reasonForChange.value.length == 0) {
                     UI_Ext_MarkFieldAsRequired('ctl01_SpecSummaryctl1_ctlCollapsibleContentContainer_ctl00_lblSpecSummaryReasonforChange');
                     alert('Reason For Change is required');
                }
           }
        }
    }); 
    

    However, not the user registration or workflow specification. If you were to do this, you must remove record them and workflow buttons and links, and this probably isn't the best practice. On the contrary, you would write validation server that would give you this error message if they try to save/workflow. (So most customers do not use Extensions of the user interface for this type of validation).

    Kind regards
