The cursor position is centered vertically in the multiline text box

When I insert a text field, resize the height so that it can accommodate several lines of text and select "Allow multiple lines", the cursor is always left-aligned, centered vertically in the text box when opened in Acrobat.

Is there a way to force the cursor to appear in the upper left corner, enter text to display from the top of the text, rather than in the middle box?

Hello

You can set the alignment of the text (vertical and horizontal) in the font/palette tab.

If you do not see in your workspace, you can select it from the Windows menu in designer LC or SHIFT + F5.

Good luck

Niall

PS note that you can change the appearance of the legend and the value of the object, together or separately. This applies to the style of the police as well as paragraph settings.

  • Can someone help me with the properties of the multiline text field?

    Adobe is not my first or second language. I have been responsible for making a form to fill out and were able to understand a little after reading the Adobe Acrobat Bible, most, however, I just can't understand this little thing that's driving me crazy! I created a large default text field (so the person filling out the form to the management a little) this field is also defined as a multiline and also make field scroll long text. The problem is that the default text is highlighted not crept to crush then tab through the various areas of creation. He puts just the cursor at the end of the text by default so using back or manually select and delete text. I looked at how to set up the rest of the fields and the only thing different, I selected the multiline text box in the Properties menu. I need to be multiline text. If this is not the case, only the first words of the default paragraph I entered couple is visible. Any suggestions or ideas would be a step ahead of where I am now. Thanks in advance.

    Yesterday, we discussed a similar situation and the solution should work for you too: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/756410?tstart=0

    What you do is create a Format script that displays the text that you want, when the field is empty, but this text is not the value of the field. The modified script below prevents printing explanatory text if the field is empty.

  • Get the last value of a multiline text box

    Hello

    I have a form of acro with a TextBox multiline, a few radio buttons and text fields.

    When the user clicks on the radio button, the value of the multiline text box is displayed in another text box.

    This is the script for the option:


    The target field
    var t = this.getField ("programme of Action");

    Field value

    var g = this.getField("Agenda_Item").value;

    t.Valeur += g + "\n";

    What the script does, is show ALL values of the multiline "to the point" text box in the other text field 'Programme of Action '.

    I need the script to extract the last line or entry of the multi-line text box and put this value in the other field of text.  There could be any number of lines from one line to two, three, four lines etc.

    Can any advise please how the script can be modified to get the value of the last row in the multi-line text box?

    Any help will be most appreciated.

    You can split the string that is returned to carriage returns:

    var a = getField ("the order of the day Item").valueAsString.split(/\r/ ");

    You must then move backward from the end of the table until you meet an element of array not empty and use it.

    for (var i =. Length - 1; i >-1; i--) {}

    If (a [i]) break;

    }

    If (typeof a [i] = 'undefined') [i] = "";

    t.Valeur += [i] + "\r";

  • y at - it a keyboard shortcut for go to the first text box on a page when the focus is on the address bar?

    I can use Alt + D to reach the address bar to enter a URL, but is there a way I can then go to the default text box, to enter data, once the search engine page was opened, using a shortcut key? I have the commands in the shortcut keys page doesn't recognize as not being what I want.

    Not as far as I know. Sites may assign a keyboard shortcut to a text field if they like, known as an AccessKey, but he is not necessarily going to be any consistency, and the site you may not be using one.

    It is possible, there could be an add-on or userscript to help with this. Or otherwise, someone might be able to write one for a particular site.

  • Open dialog box reorganizes the files that appear in the file text box

    I asked about this problem for a while - it still exists under Windows 7 Microsoft apparent feels that it is the correct behavior. In an application using a dialog open, where multiple files can be selected by clicking on them, while the CTRL key is held down, the resulting list of file names appears in the file text box. However, the first clicked file name remains last in the list while others remain in the proper order. Why is this? (An example of application is Windows Media Player, where you do a right click, then click on file and then open. The open dialog box appears and allows the selection of multiple files). When this "feature" has been more boring, it's when I try to create a CD or DVD and I want to control the order of the files.

    Hello RickL - CaryNC, welcome.

    This feature is by design. Of course, you can select the files in reverse order. I would really recommend providing feedback about this here:

    Other than that, unless you use an alternative shell, the feature is a design problem. Ryan Thieman

  • Text run horizontally through the two text boxes

    I am trying to run the text between the two areas of text, but in a continuous manner. Essentially, we have disclosed no claimed that crosses a spread. Someone, that is created is no longer here, two text boxes (one on each page) and has managed to take the text where the first line in the first text box has continued in the second text box and then wrapped into the first text box and then continued in the second text box and so on.

    So with the paragraph above text might hit the left text box to "Essentially" and continue to "we" the first line of the text on the right box. Go overboard and then to the second line of the left text box continuing to the second line of the text on the right box. And so on. I can't understand what they have done, but I'm sure it's something simple in InDesign.

    Note: these are areas of unique text, not two columns in a text box.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I see it. The text is flowing the way it does in mine. Who are soft return characters at the end of each line in the first screenshot, and # is a marker of the end of history. The lines were manually arranged and set frame on the left. This means that if you add a few words it will crumble.

  • How could I add together the numerical values in the dynamic text boxes?

    I do an application and I currently have sections such as travel, rent, etc., where you can press one of two buttons to increase or decrease the total number (fresh) for this article. All totals are displayed in the dynamic text boxes - here is an example of the code for a section-

  • Value display trace in the dynamic text box

    Hey just work on an exercise and I can't understand the code to display the value of the trace in a dynamic text box.

    The following code generates exactly where I am at this time.

    Import 12345678910111213import;

    import flash.text.TextField;

    Basic color picker (based pixel)

    var myColourBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData (500 400, false, 0xFFFFFF * Math.random ());

    var myColourBitmapImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap (myColourBitmapData);

    Add to list

    addChild (myColourBitmapImage); Add to the scene

    Get colors

    var pixelValue:uint = myColourBitmapData.getPixel (85,62); color of the pixel at X, Y

    displayed in the output window

    trace (pixelValue.toString (16)); toString (16) converts uint in a number of Hexadecimel format

    Here are a few screens, I want the values of trace output to appear next to the text in the dynamic text box

    Picture 4.png

    Picture 6.png

    I'm not sure of how to call the pixelValue to my text box, any help would be appreciated!

    Before or after the line that begins with «trace...» ' set dynamicTextFieldInstanceName.text = pixelValue.toString (16); Replace dynamicTextFieldInstanceName with the actual name that you gave to the dynamic textfield.

    There is an error in your output window. It seems that you have not integrated a font in the dynamic textField.

  • Illustrator CS5 - removal of the empty text boxes

    I always found it difficult to choose the type that I want when I use the text tool to edit text. I can click directly on the type, but I guess I'm a zillionth of a pixel off because about half of the time, it assumes I want to make a new text box. If my documents are littered with boxes of invisible empty type, which often get grouped with other objects, causing a lot of problems. I would like to know:

    1. how to make it easier to choose the type.

    2. how to remove all the empty text boxes. I remember hearing in an integrated way to do this, which indicates Adobe knows that this is a problem, but rather than the easier type selections, they give us a shortcut to undo the problem they have caused. In any case, I forgot the shortcut.

    Thanks for any help,

    Try it Select > object > Eparses Points control. It should recognize the empty text objects.

  • Cannot change the properties of online text in the scrolling text box

    The problem is when I want to change a single line of text to a "BOLD" or a different color, changing the content of the entire text box. I tried the setting of the different property for the text box itself with no luck.

    Is this possible? I have to use AS3?

    I would really appreciate help!

    Thank you!!!

    Steve

    If you change the html true property - either by using the property inspector or code if you are working with code - then you should be able to have different styles in a text box. This is the property that you tried and it didn't work so I need to learn more about how you try to apply the formatting.

    In cases concerning need it AS3... In general, I would say that if you do not have an overwhelming need to AS2 so you should use AS3. It has nothing to do with the text of no!
