Saved text fields and check-boxes empty when 3D window activates

I've created Text Fields and Check-boxes in a pdf template, using LiveCycle Designer.

I create the 3D work in Reviewer, and use the pdf template during Export to 3D pdf.

Using 'Extend Features in Adobe Reader' the user can fill in the text fields, and click the check-boxes then save them with the pdf  - just using Reader.

So far this is great!

The problem comes when the pdf is opened again and the 3D window (A3DR_3DFrame) activated.

All the completed fields empty!

This is not great at all!

I've did some tests and found that the filelds only clear if I include the Configs selection list box with the special name 'A3DR_Configs' in the template pdf. (A3DR_Configs lists the Configs stored in the 3D Reviewer file and the user can select the config from that list).


This is unfortunate, as the A3DR_Configs window is useful since it indicates to the user which 3D config is currently being viewed (ie the name of the current config stays highlighted).


Is this a bug that can be fixed or is there a workaround?

thanks,

Ian
