PageSpan Issue in HTML5 Forms

[pranaym48551345]

Hi All, I am working on a HTML5 form which has 2 subforms. I am trying to use the code to get the total number of pages  each specific subforms, but i am unable to get the number. However the same code is working fine for PDF form but not working for HTML5 form. 

Can someone Please assist on the below issue as i have tried everything but none of the scripts seems to be working.

Code:

xfa.layout.pageSpan(form.subform1); - I am using the below code on the ready:Layout event to get the total number of pages for subform1 in HTMl5 form.

form.Masters.M1.#area[0].PageCount::ready:layout - (JavaScript, both)
this.rawValue = xfa.layout.pageSpan(form.subform1);

Thanks

@pranaym48551345 PDF has pages while HTML form is a single container with a scroll. So this will not work and is working as designed.

Hey Mayank,

Just wanted to understand if this is a product related issue or a form related issue and also is there is any alternate or any possible solution, because the same script is working in AEM 6.3.

Thanks

This seems to be one of the corner cases wherein the Designer script is not working on HTML5 form while it works fine with a PDF form.

I understand that you can't use pagecount function for known reasons so feel free to report this issue via a support ticket for further investigation by the product team.

Seems to be a product-related issue but we can check further once we get the artifacts from the support ticket.

@pranaym48551345 if it's working on 6.3, then log a product bug to support team and they will check and confirm
