Re: How to force ALLCAPS in Date/Time Field - Adobe LiveCycle

This looks like a valid solution for a single field/value, but is there an easier way to force ALL field values on a form to be uppercase? Perhaps at the form or master page level? I'd prefer not to have to add uppercase script to each field on my form, if possible.

Re: Make Invisible Field Required When Visible, Not Required Otherwise - Adobe LiveCycle

Thanks for the response, Bruce. I'm not sure I follow though. I know how to make a field required, but my problem is that the required validation still fires even if the field is invisible/hidden, not just when it is visible. So, my goal is to make the field required when it's visible but not required when it is invisible/hidden.Example: I have a drop down list that is required when visible. However, the drop down field presence is conditional based on action triggers. By default the drop down i...

Re: Format Date Field As: Day Name/Month/Date/Year - Adobe LiveCycle

Awesome guys, thank you so much! I was definitely missing the change in the 'bindings' to be date only. I assumed that there had to be something allowing me to drop the time requirement but was unable to locate it previously. I really appreciate it!PS: Completely off topic, but do either of you know of a way to force the field values to be uppercase?

Re: Format Date Field As: Day Name/Month/Date/Year - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Bruce,i appreciate the response. Perhaps I am missing something, but I don't have a 'date' field option. In my list I only have a 'date/time' field. I assumed there would be one for a date but I haven't found it. I'm using version 9 ES2, maybe my version is too old?

Format Date Field As: Day Name/Month/Date/Year - Adobe LiveCycle

Is there a way to validate a 'date' field so it displays a date as: Tuesday, July 5th 2016 instead of 7/5/2016? Even if the 'day name' is abbreviated (Tue instead of Tuesday) is fine. I can't seem to find out how to format this way. Also, most of the date formats also have a time value associated with them. I don't want/need the time in this field.

Make Invisible Field Required When Visible, Not Required Otherwise - Adobe LiveCycle

I am experimenting with the presence values and how I can better use the hidden and invisible settings. I've managed to make my invisible fields visible when needed, but I cannot determine how to conditionally control when those fields are required.For example, I have a field that is required by default. When that field is invisible it is still required, which is a problem. Ideally I'd like to be able to set the invisible fields as required when they are visible (depending on action triggers whi...

Resolving a Drop-Down List Issue/Bug - Adobe LiveCycle

On my form I have a drop-down select list that has 10 different "list items" (or values) to select from. When an item/value is selected the form then populates dollar amount values into other numeric fields on the form. This process is completed by using the Action Builder to set the value of the numeric field when a specific drop-down list value is "text-selected".Although rare, I have noticed an issue that somehow allows the value of the select-list to be changed without also changing the valu...

Any LiveCycle Experts Available for Hire? - Adobe LiveCycle

Good Afternoon,Our company has a service work order that has been designed in Adobe LiveCycle. We are happy with the design itself but would like to have a LiveCycle expert add some advanced features to the form. Is anyone monitoring these forums interested? I've listed the details below.1) Create a script so that the file name is dynamically created based on values within the form itself. Example: Customer Name_Service Type_Service Date2) Allow the user to show/hide necessary pages as needed. T...

How to insert a page dynamically into a form - Adobe LiveCycle

Good Morning,We've used LiveCycle to create a very intricate work order for our service company. Although most work orders we create don't need additional documents (aside from the form itself), some do. For example, we may want to add a PDF coversheet to work orders for certain commercial accounts that have special billing instructions. At this time we will add pages to an existing work order through the following process:Enter all data into the LiveCycle formPrint the form to PDF and saveUse t...

Re: Can I restrict users from saving over the original file? - Adobe LiveCycle

Thanks for the fast reply. The original file (template, I guess?) is pulled from an encrypted server on our network and is not physically located on any individual computer. That being the case, is there any other options? I don't think I can make it read only from the server...

Can I restrict users from saving over the original file? - Adobe LiveCycle

Good Afternoon,I have LiveCycle and used it to create a service work order for our company. Office staff utilize the original (blank) version of this work order PDF and fill in the required information for each new customer. When done, they are supposed to 'save as' in a folder for that specific customer. Unfortunately, I sometimes find that a staff member will accidentally save over the original file, requiring me to manually clear the form and re-save. Bottom line, I want to find a way to setu...

Re: How can I add a page conditionally? - Adobe LiveCycle

I hate to ask (what I imagine) are stupid questions, but I'm not really sure how to go about entering the script you offered. I was originally thinking that I would find a place to put the script in the object properties (Field, Value or Binding), but I don't see an appropriate place. Is this something I should enter directly as XML? I didn't see any options for how the form handles the change event either.I appreciate your time and response.

How can I add a page conditionally? - Adobe LiveCycle

Good Morning,I am trying to find a way to conditionally add a page to my form. I have attempted to create this as a result of an 'action' but have been unsuccessful in locating the correct action.To summarize, I am trying to add a separate page to my existing form containing instructions when a specific checkbox is selected. The seperate page is text only and does not have any form/field inputs. Is there a relatively simple way to accomplish this task?

Setting up Designer Margins for Printing - Adobe LiveCycle

Good Afternoon,I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I continually find that my form pages are outside of the normal print margins for a standard 8.5in x 11in paper. So far the only solution I have found is to select "Pagearea1" underneath "Master Page" and change the 'Paper Type' to 'Letter'. This seems to set the correct page width/height, but I have a concern about margins, I want to be sure the form always prints correctly regardless of the users printer settings. Is there a way to also set ...
