Oh... OH. All this time I was trying to get the script-defined
variables! I had no idea we were talking about pulling rawValues. I do
that all the time and it should have been obvious.On the one hand, this
does fly in the face of the original reason I was doing all of this in
the first place. That original intention was to create a set of formulae
based on variables instead of pulling the long codes of rawValues,
hopefully making it easier to follow for whoever comes after me in three
or four ye...
Apologies, but I remain confused. While I can make a hidden text field
easily enough and create variables within it, the primary problem
remains: I don't know how to pull the variable values from that hidden
text field (or a script object if I were to use that option) for
use/changing in other fields. I had hoped it would be as simple as using
"==" and "=" comparisons, but clearly that is not the case, and my help
files only refer to variables in terms of script objects (and then
without telling...
Hey, Magus, thanks for the help. After reading up on the topic of Get
Set functions and Script Objects and doing some experimentation, I'm
afraid I'm still no closer to a solution. This is almost certainly
because I don't understand get how to call upon and change the object
value using a get/set function.I suppose I don't have to use variables
to do the intended work, but I would like to learn them anyway to expand
upon my LiveCycle knowledge. Is there somewhere I can go to get an
in-detail exa...
I'm working on a form that creates a wide range of conditional
statements that build from one another over time. To do this, I made a
single large table with a range of user-filled options. For the problem
cell, I've got a set of if-else statements with five potential outcomes,
which are themselves dependent upon another variable from a prior cell.
The conditional is as follows:var
StW2;if(GeneralTable.Row1.CollarType.rawValue == "Option 1" && Ero == 1
&& RDB46BPF.rawValue >= 96.75 && RDB46BPF.r...
Curious, I was sure I needed those brackets after "else". And I forgot
entirely about the difference between == and =. That's what I get for
not working with LC/Java for months.That works, thanks!
I use LiveCycle off-and-on to make forms and I've seen this issue
before. I'm not sure if it's something LC is supposed to do or if I've
been doing something wrong all along and didn't know it. The code below
is currently applied to the change event of a drop-down box. The idea is
simply to have another field change rawValues whenever an option in the
drop-down is selected. This works fine upon opening the form.The problem
is that the other field seems to lock up after the form filler has made
t...
Ah, I see what you mean. Alas, the issue was me not wanting the white
background.I decided to try deleting the code entirely. It worked like a charm.
Which is strange, 'cause I could have sworn I tried that yesterday. At
any rate, the problem is now solved. I think I'll be taking your Notepad
recommendation for any future projects of this variety though. Thanks
for the assist!
I have been tasked with taking an existing LiveCycle-built PDF and
applying a Russian translation to it. This largely involves
copying-pasting the Russian text given to me in relevant places. For one
label, the original text fits on a single line. With the Russian
translation however, it has to be made into two. Normally this would be
no big deal, just expand the height of the label so that the text will
have two lines available. Bear in mind that these labels are colored a
light grey to differe...
I'm willing to share some images with the information redacted. In case
more is needed, is there a particular file sharing site you'd
recommend?Below are the two fields I'm working on. I've successfully
managed to get the buttons to add or delete rows as the user requires in
order to expand the form. This was done using .addInstance(1) and
.removeInstance(this.parent.index).The problem comes when I reach a page
break. If the user applies just enough rows of the Field Failure
Description, the Fie...
I'm creating a dynamic form that involves a lot of inputs from the end
user which is going to include both images and text. I can make the
fields expand and add/delete fields, and the assorted rows move to new
pages as I need. The problem comes when an input field is forced to the
next page before its respective caption row.A single caption row in this
case includes a text field and two buttons (for adding and deleting
input rows). I know the text field can be set to stay with the button
that co...
