I am on LiveCycle Designer 8.0 and I have a script where, based on items
chosen in a drop down, my fields change. The script seems to work fine,
but I want a way to set up this form so that when the form is opened by
the user, they only see the initial drop down box, rather than all of
the subforms. Is there any way to do this?
Stephen,Thank you so far for your help. I really do appreciate it.It is
still not working. When I set up the formula in the caluclate field, it
will not calculate my AOI/SqFt. You are right. I cannot place it in the
PolicyNo field or else the field becomes read only and that is a data
entered field. The closest I come to getting anything is getting the
numbers "255,255,0" to print as if LiveCycle think it is text. I am
saving this as a dynamic, Acrobat 8. Would that make a difference? I did
get ...
I think I am still doing something wrong. I entered in the formula, Form
Calc, Calcluation script and changed $ to the names of the Cost field
and the field I want highlighted. I get back the numbers 255,255,0. I
dont see where to attach my sample (wasnt that an option before?) Here
is my script, hiearchy, and a screen
shot:if(Cost<100)thenPolicyNo.fillColor= "255,255,0"
//yellowelsePolicyNo.fillColor= "255,255.255" //whiteendifand my
hiearchy is:Table 1 Header Row Policy AddRow DelRow PolicyNo ...
Hi,I have a dynamic table where end users will add rows as needed and
some of the fields will automatically calculate based on the numbers.
What I need is if one of the calculations is below a stated value, I
need the row highlighted automatically in yellow. In the example below,
say I want the values less than $10.00 highlighted.Example:CostSq
FtCost/per Square501053001030Can anyone help me with this please?
Awesome! That is exactly what I need. The only issue is that, for some
reason, my this.minH= "0.6813in" in the image fields quit working. When
I hit reset, the image field collapses into a line and no data can be
entered.
HI Paul,Yes, most of the form works great, with the exeption of the
image and text field for the system diagram and I would like to thank
you for your patience with me. Here is what is supposed to happen:Our
systems designers will come up with a diagram that shows the flow of the
system in Word or Paint. It is a process diagram and will need to be
input into the form. Each diagarm (some systems will have one diagram,
others will have several) may need the text field to go along with the
diagram ...
I am sorry to be such a pain about this, but either I am not
understanding what I need to do exactly, or this isn't working the way I
need it to. Attached is the full document. As you can see, I need the
system text and system diagram to be grouped together as one item (and
then I have to use the same programming for the exhibits at the end. At
times, the system diagram will be a half page or less, other times, it
will span multiple pages. Also, when management makes changes to the
systems, the ...
Oh. I see that now. I am still having problems making the form work the
way I need it to (maybe it is just impossible). If I take the text field
and make it expandable for multiple lines, and since the text field and
the Image Field are both in a positioned subform, the text field runs
over the Image Field. Can I just insert another subform and make those
two flowed within the form?
HI Paul,Thank you for the input. I need to spend some time trying this
out to see if it will work, but I have one question (please excuse my
naiveity). When I am working with flowed subforms, I have never been
able to position my data where I want without using a table as a
placeholder. I see in your sample, I am able to move the rows around the
subform (next to each other, under each other with a space, etc). How
did you do that?
Hello All!I am having trouble getting my image fields to work the way I
need them to. (Sample is attached). What I need is for the user (who
will be using Reader) to enter in text information, then enter in a
diagram or exhibit, then, if needed add another set of text and exibit.
I will need each row to be independently added and deleted as well
(similar to my text row is already set up). I have tried having a table
set up and repeat the table, but the Image Field will not work properly
and shri...
I have looked on help and throughout the forums, but am still unable to
get this script to work. What I need is if we have Row 1, Row 2, Row 3
and need to go back and insert a row between Rows 2 & 3, we can do this.
The script that I used is off LiveCycle Help, but I have seen the same
script in the forums. I am missing something, but have been unable to
upload an example to show me what I am doing wrong. Please help.
Attached is the row I am working on.
I guess I responded too quickly. Now, the image will show up, the box
will expand, I can reset the form, and it looks good (as I wanted), The
problem is that the next image you try to place in the document, the
image is smaller and the box will no longer expand to fit. Also, I can't
get the same formula to work in another image field. Is there something
else that you did?Form is attached.
I have a dynamic form where the users can import jpg images into the
form. This works just fine, but when they reset the form, the image box
minimizes and the users are unable to re-use the box without exiting the
program and re-entering. Basically, my users are going to create a
flowchart in Paint or Word, save the image as jpg and place it into the
form. They will be using Adobe Reader, so it appears the field needs to
be an image field. Is there any way I can make the field reset to it's
star...
I figured it out! I moved the header information to the master screen
and adjusted the margins on the Top (Form level) of the form to 1 inch.
This solved my issues!!
I knew it was something small. Thank you so much for your help!As for
the third question, the System name, number, and type need to be headers
at the top of every page, no matter if a field flows onto a new page or
a new field begins on the new page. Most of the research I have done,
the techs say to keep it on the main page and use default binding,
global with this section as an overflow leader. Although this works well
if a new field begins on a second page, it doesn't seem to work if a
field ...
I have used these functions in the past (even on this form) without a
problem, but I am running into several problems with this form that I
can't figure out how to overcome:1) Several of the add field and delete
fields do not work, specifically the ones under System Standards and
System Quantification. I am not sure why because I have the one under
Benchmarks working perfectly. Scripts are the same, except for my table
references. LiveCycle is not giving me an error message for this, so I
am at ...
I know I ran across something about this last week but am unable to find
it. I have a multi part form with sub forms. Within these subforms, we
have the option to add and remove lines within the tables, and that is
working fine. What I need now is for the form to allow the users the
option to hide or unhide the entire section, if it is not pertinent. A
portion of the form is attached.
Yipee! I am (we are) SO almost there. The fields expand perfectly, but I
copied your formula and it still won't add. Am I not telling it where to
add the new row? I am so glad I get off work soon, but my deadline is
tomorrow!!
Thanks for the help with the layout. That part is now fixed. I tried to
add a button to copy the line, but I think I still have it wrong.As far
as entering in information in the comments, I can do it when I open it
in PDF, but the PDF preview has not been working for me either. Not sure
what is up with that. When I set up the expand to fit subform, it input
the comments box. Is there a way I can make the column expand to fit
instead of having another object in the table? Sorry, I am not really
e...
I have been looking in past forums and used the help function on Adobe,
but am still missing something. Here are my issues:The information on
the master page is overwritten by the table that I need to expand to fit
for the comments and I can't seem to move the table down below the basic
information.I have gotten the comments to expand to fit, but when they
show up, they are centered, rather than moving the line down. Each new
row needs to be a new item.I still can't get the new row to show up wh...
