With all our company forms, we use a Drop Down Box for all our deparmental names. We have just gone through a restructure and have renamed majority of our departments. Just wondering, if I was to create this drop down box as a Fragment, am I able to change the size of the box according to each particular form?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Nope .....when the df is generated the reference to the fragment is resolved, so if you save the form out of designer as a PDF then the fragment is read at that time any subsequent changes will not be seen. If you create the PDF in real time (when the user asks for it) then you are always grabing the latest fragment and hence getting the latest updates. This is done by saving the form in its native format (XDP) and rendering it through LiveCycle Form server product when the user asks for it.
Make sense?

The size of the dropdown will be dictated by what you set in the fragment. You will not e able to change it from the main form (unless you embed the fragment into the host form).

That is what I thought. If I were to embed the fragment it wouldn't be updated if I were to edited the fragment would it?

Not really but that is OK. I hope that I won't need to use Fragments. If I do I will come back to you later.
