jasotastic -I really appreciate your help on this. It's exactly what I
was looking for...! I was using a different script that worked for the
most part, but it failed to update the Cumulative total whenever the
user changed a payment amount. Your script does update the total, so I'm
a very happy camper.The only thing I wonder is if it's possible to not
show the Total value(s) on subsequent rows if no payment amount has been
entered on active row (null) and/or if the payment field is blank on
tha...
The following is designed as a repeating subform with new row instances
added via an Add button.I need each Cumulative Payment field (on each
row) to auto-calculate based on either:1. the "current" and "all
previous" payment amounts (i.e. cumulative payment 3 ($1,800) = sum of
payments 1, 2, and 3)or2. the previous cumulative payment + current
payment (i.e. cumulative payment 3 ($1,800) = cumulative payment 2
($1,100) + payment 3 ($700)Period Payment Cumulative Payment 1. 500 500
2. 600 1,100 3....
If you want "just" the check box area filed with yellow (vs the entire
object) use the following script on the
prePrint:this.ui.oneOfChild.border.fill.color.value = "255,255,0";On the
postPrint event, use the same script but change the RGB color codes
("#,#,#") to represent grey thus restoring the check box to the original
state.
Unless you're trying to do something special with validations, have you
tried just making textfield1 "User entered - Required" under the
Object>Value menu? Each new instance will make the textfield required.
I also have a project in which the user will complete & sign multiple
"carbon copy- like" versions of the same form. Each "duplicate instance"
of the form will have a digital signature field signed by the same
person (a total of 6 fields)The problem I'm having is each time the form
is digitally signed, the user must perform a SaveAs which quickly
becomes a nuisance. Instead of saving the form with a new name, the user
must overwrite the current file then proceed to sign the next field,
etc.Since...
Have you tried using a regular text field labeled "Signature", making
the field protected, then saving as a Static PDF (provided it doesn't
need to be Dynamic). Then you can use the Pencil tool (under Comments)
to "scribble a signature". You probably know this already, but if the
form will be completed by Reader users, you'll need to make it Reader
Enabled.Also, since the signature will be applied as a "Comment," you
may want to "print to PDF" to flatten the form once the signature is
obtained.N...
I figured it out using a loop statement...Will leave this posted just in
case it helps someone else in the future! var rows =
xfa.resolveNodes("TableA.Row[*].Cell2"); for (var i = 0; i <
rows.length; i++) { var lockField = rows.item(i); lockField.access =
"protected"; }
Lastly, you might already know this, but also make sure you are
referencing the correct paths in your scripts. For example, if your
images are placed in another/separate subform called Photos, then the
above path is incorrect.Instead, it would be something like:if
(this.rawValue == "1"){Photos.Image1.presence
="visible"Photos.Image2.presence = "hidden"Photos.Image3.presence =
"hidden"}if (this.rawValue == "2"){Photos.Image1.presence =
"hidden"Photos.Image2.presence = "visible"Photos.Image3.prese...
Re: the difference between the Image and Image Field objects... The
"Image" object is typically used during design (i.e. the image is added
to the form by the form designer - just like what you are doing by
pre-placing the image son the form ). If you want the image to be
available for future edits (especially when editing on a different
machine) then you'd want to select the "Embed Image Date" option. Doing
this will increase the overall file size, but it help ensure the graphic
will be there i...
If you made sure the export values are set under the Binding tab then it
should work. Are you saving the form as a "Dynamic" PDF vs static? If
not, try saving as a dynamic form.
Just curious... RE: "there appears to be certain situations where you
can't copy and paste pieces from one form to the other..." what
situations are those? Have you also tried grouping items into subforms
or groups, copying, pasting into destination form, then unwrapping the
subform and/or un-grouping the group?
P.S. In the solution above, the images reside in the form - you are
basically controlling the "presence"...either "hidden" or "visible".
This is with the presumption that only one image is visible at a time.
You will have to determine where the images are placed on the form (i.e.
stacked on top of one another, within a subform, etc).
NOTE: Below are two simple options. Assign an exported value to the
selectable items in the drop-down (i.e. 1,2,3). You would do this on the
Binding tab (Specify Item Values)OPTION 1:Use the following script on
the "Exit" event of the drop-downif (this.rawValue == "1"){//a "space"
character to represent a blank option in the drop-downImage1.presence =
"hidden"Image2.presence = "hidden"}if (this.rawValue ==
"2"){Image1.presence = "visible"Image2.presence = "hidden"}if
(this.rawValue == "3"){Image...
I have a single Table ("TableA") with 4 rows - all named "Row".
Thus...Row[0], Row[1], Row[2], and Row[3]. Each row has 3 cells. What
I'm trying to do is lock the 2nd cell ("Cell2") on every row -
essentially locking an entire column.I tried using the following script
on a button, but it doesn't work.TableA.Row[*].Cell2.access =
"protected";Any ideas?Thanks in advance!Tony
