How do you hide checkboxes in a subform?

[jacksona25]

I'm new at building LiveCycle forms and I'm trying to make the check boxes disapear if they haven't been checked when I answer a follow-up question.  Any help would be great.

You will want to use the presence property on the object. You can make it visible, invisible or hidden. So to hide the object:

Object Name.presence = "invisible"

To show the object then:

Object Name.presence = "visible"

Hi,

It can be done by accessing the .presence property of the checkboxes.

Here is a sample: https://acrobat.com/#d=uDqOzsAn9f2tXFgIUtOIig

Maybe consider the users' experience when the checkboxes disappear - what if they wanted to amended a previous response.

Good luck,

Niall

Paul, here is the form. The "NatureChkSub" is where I'm trying to hide the

check boxes if their not checked by the user. I want the unchecked boxes to

be hidden when I answer the question in the "BodyQuesSub".

There is no form here ...you cannot add attachments to this forum. Niall gave you an example that shows what to do .....I would start with that then ask more questions as needed.
