Remove Red outline around Drop-Down List [Picture]

Two questions, please see the image below for illustration of these problems

1) How do you remove the red outline around a drop down-list? I assume the red outline is notifying the user its a required field, but I don't see an option to turn this off and it doesnt go away once I select something from the drop down. I would edit it in Acrobat X, but whenever I go to edit the PDF it only lets me edit it in Livecycle

2) Whenever I create a text field I am unable to type anything into the contents of the sunken box.

Hi,

You can add script into the docReady event of the root node (normally "form1") to turn off the highlighting:

app.runtimeHighlight = false;

See an example here: http://assure.ly/jiZ6tn.

At design time you cannot type text directly into the value area of a field. However if you go to the Object > Value palette, you can input a defaul value (which will obviously appear in the value area of the field).

Hope that helps,

Niall
