I've done an extensive amount of Flex development in the past and have
done a lot of Flex Workspace customization even going as far as adding
entirely new sections or removing existing sections. However, I'd like
to customize the HTML Workspace by adding a new section. I've found a
good amount of documentation on how to "customize" the HTML Workspace by
editinng the CSS or updating JSON files to change/add/remove labels, etc
but I have found nothing on how to do any real customizations such as
a...
It looks like the Fragment doesn't like that there isn't a root node
available in its schema. When I just opened the Fragment in Designer, it
complained there's no root node. The problem is, I don't think I can
have a root node such as an element as it won't let me reference
elements from the parent schema - only simple and complex types.
So I have the data being captured now appropriately with one of the
fragment's schemas being imported into the parent schema but when I go
to update the formData asset in Workbench by editing the variable and
clicking "Import Asset", it won't let me save the variable telling me
that the XML schema is invalid. Here's the schema:
Note that the schemaLocation
value has been replaced with #XFAXSDReference" when I actually have it
in the schema as the correct path to the schema (and it wo...
AllI have a use case where there needs to be a parent form that will
contain a number of children sections. Now I know I could just have one
giant schema and have all of these child sections as subforms, etc.
However, I'm trying to make use of fragments as they seem like they
might be a decent fit here. However, I keep running into snags. Here are
the issues I'm seeing:1) When I submit the form in Workspace, none of
the data entered into either fragment is captured in the XML2) When I
attempt to...
As a follow-up on this conversation, I don't know of a way to see if a
particular field passed a validation pattern after running
execValidate(). As a best practice, I would highly recommend regular
expressions for validations. I don't personally find the validation
patterns built into the fields to be terribly useful considering how
much more power you have at your disposal with Javascript. One of the
first things I do for every client I'm at when developing a form is
build out (or copy from a ...
AllI am unable to resize the Workbench process canvas either
horizontally or vertically. I'm using Workbench ES4. Has anyone
encountered this and, if so, how did you resolve it? I'm thinking it may
be a Flash Player issue. If I figure it out, I'll update this
thread.Thanks
I see a few quick fixes available that might have something to do with
my issue but I've had zero luck in finding where to actually download
these fixes. Where does one go to actually download them?EDIT: So I had
to find, in a one-off, old blog post, that the only way to get quick
fixes for licensed Adobe software is to call in to customer support so
they can give you a specific "quick fix installer". First of all, why
wouldn't these quick fixes be publicly available right on the site.

Unfortunately I can't provide an LCA because it's a proprietary HR
system in use here. I know the fix to my issue was to remove the
circular dependencies but I have bothered to dive any further than that
to see exactly what the issue was. I can provide, however, that we are
using an LCES2.5 turnkey installtion with JBoss and MySql on a 32bit JVM
(this particular issue was in our dev environment that runs on 32 bit).
One thing to consider is that while our dev environment is using a 32bit
JVM and...
Just wanted to follow up on the solution to my issue.It appears the
issue centers around circular far dependencies. In general, it seems
LiveCycle chokes when two applications each reference one another. Note
that I'm not talkinng about true circular referencing here wherein one
process within application A references a process in application B while
that same process refers back to the original process in application A.
In fact, although I haven't tested recently, I believe LiveCycle may

Thanks for the response. I took a look through the guidelines and it
doesn't appear to address anything of interest with respect to my
problem.As to dependencies, yes, there are 6 total applications and
there are far dependencies between many of them. The application in
question does have a far dependency with one other application that
holds a number of utility orchestrations leveraged in many places.
AllI'm simply attempting to create a new version for an application in
LiveCycle ES 2.5. I'm right-clicking on the application and saying
New==>Application Version. I ensure the version is set to 1.1 (I'm
upgrading from 1.0) and then I click "Finish". After about 10 seconds, a
dialog pops up that simply says "Internal Error" and the verison is not
created. The log reads the following:2013-04-19 14:55:32,692 ERROR

I checked out that utility and, unfortunately, it's generating a bunch
of Java errors after configuring it to be used. Further, I'm not sure
it's the direction I need to head. I'm trying to do what I feel is
something very simple in that I want to take an LCA from one environment
and import that LCA in another environment. Then I simply want to deploy
the applications so they can be used. That is where it's failing and the
error it's telling me is that [Some process name].process is not defined

AllI'm having a fairly serious issue here trying to take an LCA from one
environment and get it in another environment. Both the source and
destination environments are LCES 2.5 (LCES 2 with SP2). I have roughly
6 applications and there are some far dependencies (one application
referencing an asset of another application) therein. I've taken an LCA
of all these applicaitons from the source environment and the LCA
imports just fine in the destination environment but I am unable to
deploy any of ...
The XML is actually coming from a Query Multiple Rows as XML service
call within an orchestration and therefore takes the following
form: Some Value A
Some Value B Some
Value C Some Value D
I played around with a bit and didn't see a good
way to address it. I've since just written up some Javascript to parse
it and stuff the table but if you find a good way to bind it up straight
in, perhaps by loading the XML into the data DOM, let me know!Thanks!
HelloI have a use case I'm working on wherein I do the following:- Wire
up a WSDL within my PDF- Bind the response (which is some XML) to a
hidden text field- Throw a button on the PDF that, when clicked, invokes
that web service operation- Take the XML response and display it in a
table within the PDF - Create a TaskManager endpoint so the user can
access the form through WorkspaceThe user would then go into the form
via Workspace and would invoke the web service which returns a bunch of
data a...
My intent for this post is twofold:1) Call out a couple issues I've run
into with the use of custom events in the hopes that it spares someone
else a mind-numbing experience of debugging.2) Solicit some feedback
from Adobe and/or any other very knowledgeable individualsFirst, allow
me state that I'm using LiveCycle ES2.5 on a turnkey JBoss installation
backed by MySql.Now on to the issues. They are as follows:1) Deployment
of an application that makes use of start points that listen for custom

I haven't found an actual "solution" to this issue just yet but I did
find a workaround that at least gets us halfway there. It appears that
PDF conversion of Word documents is now built-in with Word 2010. You can
simply save out any Word document as a PDF and it'll do the conversion
for you. What this does NOT do for us, however, is generate editable
fields on the resulting PDF.I'll keep looking into it.
I have just run into this issue myself. At first I thought it might be
that LiveCycle is not yet fully compatible with Office 2010 but after
doing some googling it seems there are plenty of folks out there
successfully converting Word 2010 documents to PDF.As a temporary
workaround, you could try a copy of an earlier version of Word should
one be available to you.If I'm able to find a solution to the issue,
I'll let you know promptly.Josh

Hmmm that's an interesting dilemma for sure!Here's a workaround you can
try:1) Create a hidden field on your form (i.e. txtField)2) On the Exit
event of each field needing to be validated, set txtField.rawValue to
this.name (this.name will get you the node's name)3) On the Change event
of txtField, have a simple script similar to as
follows:xfa.resolveNode(this.rawValue).execValidate();The above should
force the validate event to fire even when leaving the field without
editing it at all.As an a...
Hey Legallogic!What kind of values will the drop-downs have? As for the
output field, what kind of values would it have? In other words, are you
wanting to add all the values of drop-down lists to the output field as
a comma-separated list (i.e. value1,value2,value3)?
Hey rweastmanir!As a simple workaround, I might recommend having a
hidden field on your form. In the preSubmit event (client side), I would
set this field to some easily testable value like "1" or "DONE". Then,
you could just add a script to the initialize event of the form's root
node that tests the value of that field. If the value is "1" or "DONE"
then set all the fields to "readOnly".Feel free to shoot me an email if
you have any questions!Josh BoyleCardinal Solutions

Hey Legallogic!I'm not 100% certain I understand what you are struggling
with but I'd be happy to help. If you could provide an alternate
explanation of your issue I'll take a look and help you solve it. What I
*think* you're asking about is in reference to the test case of a switch
statement. Typically a switch would be used to test the value of one
particular variable, so:switch (varTest){ case "A": //Do something here
break; case "B": //Do something else here break; default: //Do something

Hey Kyle!The Validate and Calculate events are both responsive events
meaning that they always fire in response to other events. When you exit
a field, the Validate event for that field should fire. My
recommendation would be to leverage the Validate event for your
validation as opposed to the Exit event and to ensure that each Validate
event is set to run client-side (select "client" from the "Run At"
option within the script window.I apologize in advance if you are
already familiar with the Va...
Hello drcaesar-21qe0k!Any form node (Text Field, Drop-down List, etc)
has a method you can invoke called "execValidate". This method invokes
both the pattern and the script validation for the given node - in that
order. If you had a form with a text field entitled txtTest for which
you would like to run the pattern validation on, you would simply
type:txtTest.execValidate();Please let me know if you have any
questions!Josh Boylejboyle@cardinalsolutions.comCardinal Solutions Group
Just thought I would reach out one last time on this topic. To be more
specific, I am looking for a means by which to "turn off" dialogs within
a Designer 8.2 form. I still wish to use Validation patterns and perhaps
Validation scripts but I don't want any dialog boxes to appear should
any pattern or script be violated.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks
in advance!
Hello Amit!It is true that LiveCycle 8.2's JDBC service has on built-in
exception handling. This has been remedied in 9.0 as there are now
several exception types that can be handled.If I understand correctly,
your trouble comes with the lack of transaction management around the
existing JDBC service within LiveCycle. To this I can only recommend
that any SQL statements needing to be run with transaction management be
done so within an executeScript service. I have, on many, many
occasions, util...
Hello rohitacmilan!Just to ensure I'm covering all bases, note that the
existence of ANY empty required field (set as User Entered - Required)
will prevent the form from submitting by default.What I believe you're
getting at though is that you would like to programmatically check all
required fields prior to submission so you can take a custom action. If
this is the case, you will indeed need a script like the one you have
displayed. After reviewing your script I found a few issues that I'll
dis...
AllI am looking into whether or not it is possible to suppress warning
and error dialogs within a form created by LiveCycle Designer 8.2. I am
aware this functionality is easily configurable within ES2 - which is
the driver behind why I would like to get it working in some form within
8.2. Essentially, I would like no dialog boxes to appear unless
explicitly done so via script.Any ideas?
