Underlining just the fillable text

[Former Community Member]

I made a form where my boxes are underlined. While filling out the form, some boxes show the underline while filling, others don't. But my main problem is, I want all the fields to have an line visible when printing; that way, if the end-user chooses just to print it and handfill it out, the lines will be there. I don't want lines under the captions. Using the Underline in the font area is not what I'm looking for. Actually, maybe a script to fill the bottom border of the fillable part??

Any ideas??

hmm...the biggest problem is that you just want lines under the captions.



you could have a subform which overlies the textfields which just contains lines under the boxes.



then for this subform, on preprint you could have

this.presence = "visible"



and for postprint you could have this.presence = "hidden"



Alternatively if you only want lines under the fields that are empty, you could set the preprint method for every textfield to



if (this.rawValue == null)

(this.rawValue = ............................)



and the postprint method back to



if(this.rawValue == .......................)

{ this.rawValue = null}
