Doubts with subforms hide/show

Former Community Member
hi,



i want to make a pdf that could have the need to hide/show some subforms and/or pages



i was able to make this work with some subforms.



How can i do in order to force the pdf to remerge itself ?



for example, i have the following :



page 1:

subform1

subform2

subform3

page 2:

subform4

subform5

subform6

page 3:

subform7

subform8

subform9



is it possible to hide subform 3, and make subform4 take his place ?? (pull all the subforms up)



i wanted to avoid the blank spaces left by the invisible subform.



thanks

Just make sure the main subform on page 1 is set to flow and that all of the subforms are contained within that subform then when you hide a particular subform all the others will flow next to each other. So if subform3 is hidden then subform4 etc. will move up under subform2. That is the easiest way to accomplish this that I know of.

Yes, ofcourse you need to hide the first subform. I tried it and it's working fine..

if(this.rawValue == 1) (in click event of radio button)

{

this.parent.subform1.presence = "visible";

this.parent.subform2.presence = "hidden";

}

else

{

this.parent.subform1.presence = "hidden";

this.parent.subform2.presence = "visible";

}
