Auto populate field with value same as one in a previous existing field

Hi,
Suppose I have only two fields in an acrobat form, one is name A and aonther is B. I want A and B has the same value.
If I input a date value into field A like November 20, 2010, is that possible the field B can be auto filled with the same value as that in the A field?
How about other type of data such as number?
What should I write in validation or calculation area in the field properties of B?
Thanks and looking forward to getting help from the PDF expert.

Auto populate text fields with a trigger such as entering text into input fields in ADF

Hello all,
I am not able to auto populate text fields with a trigger such as entering text into input fields in ADF.
I tried AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(val); in the back end using setter method of input text field.
its not working ..
is there any way to achieve it

Hi,
Always mention your JDev version.
The valueChangeListener would fire only when you set the autoSubmit property of the field to true. Can you elaborate your requirement? What do you mean by related data? Are you performing some sort of search?
If you want to get the value you entered on the field, just set autoSubmit to true and get the new value from the valueChangeListener. If your requirement is something like as and when you type, do something, you need to check out this approach :https://blogs.oracle.com/groundside/entry/auto_reduce_search_sample

Can you auto populate IPTC core values?

Hi
Every time i want to populate the iptc core values in bridge i have to do them manually. Quite a few are always the same, ie, email, creator etc. I usually cut and paste from another image which is time consuming
Can i somehow auto populate some fields with the same text everytime?
thanks

If you select multiple files at once you can add metadata to them in one go by filling just the wanted metadata in the wanted fields and after apply all selected files are saved with the filled metadata.
But you can also create a metadata template (metadata panel top right tiny menu icon, create metadata template) and fill in all usual data like name, address, copyright info etc.
Either select the files you want to change and from same menu choose append metadata (you can create several templates and choose from them using this menu) or use Photodownloader and select the copyright template to be written to the files upon import.
Many ways to use this powerful function in Bridge

How can I have two fields with the same name if it makes sense?

Hello, folks :)
I have a pretty hard time figuring out how I can have two text fields with the same binding name.
The whole problem is that when I need two fields with the same binding name they are still differnent coz they have the same name but differnt indices.
I should make a form filled at runtime by merging a pdf form file and an fdf file data file. And I have no choice to do it differently. And my form file needs some data like customerName, companyName twice in one form. But there's only one possible buinding name indexed zero.
How can I create a field with absolutely the same name or is it just impossible due to possible name conflicts? And is there a workaround to this problem? I just need one piece of data repeated in different places.
Thanks for your replies :)
P.S. if u think that the problem is not clear enough let me know. I'll supply you with more details. But the general process can not be changed.
One pdf should be mergred with an fdf with as the result of their merge a new filled and flattened form. I have no control over fdfs their are generated by Oracle and I can not fill the form using XML files coz this process should be integrated in a working application.

I just thought about a really ugly workaround with a server-side script adding values to fdf files but it's a bit of work and tests and personally i think it's a bad idea :-(

A function instead of UNBOUNDED PRECEDING (like "Last field with value=0")

Hello,
I have a table with many rows. The attributes of the table are code, month and value.
For each code there are 12 months and 12 values.
No I want to add the gaps between the months...
Is it possible to count the following gaps between the different rows...?
For example:
Original table1:_
code, month, value
1,1,20
1,2,0
1,3,30
1,4,0
1,5,40
1,6,0
1,7,0
1,8,20
1,9,0
1,10,10
1,11,0
1,12,0
5,1,0
5,2,20
5,3,10
description:*
january value = 20
february value = 0 (=>count this gap => new value 1 )
march value = 30
april value = 0 (=>count this gap => new value 1 )
may value = 40
june value = 0
july value = 0 (=>count this two following gaps => new value 2 )
agust value = 20
september value = 0 (=>count this gap => new value 1 )
october value = 10
november value = 0
december value = 0 (=>count this two following gaps => new value 2 )
New target table:_
code, month, value
1,1,20
1,2,*1*
1,3,30
1,4,*1*
1,5,40
1,6,0

1,9,*1*
1,10,10
1,11,0
1,12,*2*
5,1,*1*
5,2,20
5,3,10
I tried this code:
select code, month
sum(value) over (
order by month
rows between unbounded preceding and current row
*) as final_value*
from table1 order by month;
This adds all following fields cumulative from beginning to current_row. But I need this adding only for the following gaps... then start with countin by 0.
I need only the following like in the example on top. Maybe is there an other function like decode to count only the following gaps...!?
A function instead of unbounded preceding....like "*Last field with value=0*" or something... ?
Best regards,
Tim

Please use meaningfull subject titles

Hi Ripel,
When you are assinging a file if it has field names in first row then select "Field names at Start of file", if not names then uncheck the box at "File Structure".
If fields are using, then check the tabulator in file and Uncheck the "Field order matches Source structure Definition."

Hiding Fields with the same name

I have multiple fields across a form with the same name
TxtName#1
TxtName#2
TxtName#3..... TxtName#24
They are all share the same name because they should all have the same data.
I want to be able to hide some of these fields, based on the number entered in another field TxtQty.
for example if TxtQty=2 then
TxtName#3-TxtName#24 will be hidden and only TxtName#1 and TxtName#2 will be visible.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks!

The easiest way is to rename TxtName #1 and #2 to "TxtName2", and use the following custom Validate script for each:
// Copy this field's value to the TxtName fields
getField("TxtName").value = event.value;
You can then hide all of the TxtName fields with:
getField("TxtName").display = display.hidden;

Custom fields with the same name in Project Online

Today I discovered something interesting when creating custom fields in Project Online.
I usually create a certain set of custom fields that are useful to have on both the project and the task level. An example of these is Reportable, which I use to determine which tasks to roll up into reports and also which projects overall to report on.
So I created a project level custom field called Reportable. No problem.
I then created a custom field on the task level called Reportable. And the computer said no!
I then learned that although you could do this in Project Server 2013, you can't in Project Online. You can't have duplicate custom field names, even if they are of different types.
This has led me to use a naming standard, such as Reportable Task and Reportable Project. But I really don't like that as codes are for computers, not us humans. So I hope this changes in the future, but for now you just need to think about how you approach
the fields.
Good luck!

Hi Ryan,
I would follow Ben on this..
Just made a test on a Project 2013 instance on-premise and I cannot create a task ECF and a project ECF with the same name. The same test on a Online instance returns the same result: the ECF names must be unique whatever the entity is.
Waiting for Ben's confirmation.
Hope this helps,

Iphoto shows two photo libraries with the same name, one in small letters the other in all capital letters. they both open the same library and the only one in my computer. How do delete the capital letrs one as the one in the pictures folder is in

In my iPhoto application when I select switch libraries It shows 2 libraries with the same name, but one has the name is in Capital letters.
They both open the same library which is in the Pictures folder. This is the only library I can see and the name is not in capital letters?
How do I get rid of the one in capital letters

What is your iPhoto version?
when I select switch libraries It shows 2 libraries with the same name, but one has the name is in Capital letters.
In the Library Chooser Panel look for the pathes to the two duplicate libraries. You will see the location of the libraries in the path bar at the bottom of the window when you select one of the libraries. Does it show both libraries in the same folder?

How can i achieve this?
Thanks,

looks like you might be looking for a custom sequence manager.
you might want to consider using a trigger to do this.
unfortunately if you use just one trigger you will probably get a mutating exception.
so you may need to do a multiple trigger approach
make a place to hold the rows you want to look at
i called mine tad_mgr
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE TAD_MGR IS
* This package spec holds the row ids of the tad table to be used in the 3 trigger approach
type ridArray is table of tab.ID%type index by binary_integer;
newRows ridArray;
empty ridArray;
END;
/your 1st trigger clears out any left over rows you have.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TAB_1ST
    before INSERT of ID ON TAB
declare
* This is the 1st trigger in 3 trigger approach to manage seq cds on the tad table
begin
                TAD_MGR.newRows := TAD_MGR.empty;
end;
/your second triggers puts your new or updated row into the container
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TAB_2ND
BEFORE INSERT
OF ID ON TAB REFERENCING NEW AS NEW OLD AS OLD
FOR EACH ROW
declare
This is the 2nd trigger in 3 trigger approach to manage seq cds on the tad table
begin
             TAD_MGR.newRows( TAD_MGR.newRows.count+1 ) := :new.id;
end;
/finally your last trigger does the updates.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TAB_3RD
AFTER INSERT OF ID ON TAB
declare
This is the 3RD trigger in 3 trigger approach to manage seq cds on the tad table
aSEQ tab.seq%type;
aId   tab.id%type;
begin
for i in 1 ..TAD_mgr.newRows.count loop
    select ID, SEQ into aId, aSeq from tab where id = taD_mgr.newRows(i);
    for c in (select id, seq FROM tab where seq >= aSeq and id != aid ) loop
        update tab
        set seq = c.seq + 1
        where id = c.id;
    end loop;
end loop;
           taD_mgr.newRows := taD_mgr.empty;
   end;
/I just did this for the insert just as an example but you can change the triggers to insert or update and change the logic accordingly

Table with a dropdown field with values.....

Friends, I opened this new thread with my good explanation whatim looking for . sorry for this.
I have a table:
                    col1            col2               col3
row1              r1c1           r1c2               r1c3
row2              r2c1           r2c2               r2c3
row3              r3c1           r3c2               r3c3.
I need col2 to be dropdown. Here when doinit default data is being passed to this table. Now when the WDA loads, i want col2 to be dropdown, but with only one value. whatever i have in backend.Here intially i want to disable col2. User should not hcange it.
But when i hit ADDNEWROW button, it shoudl create row4, with some (i m writing a query to fetch col2 values) values in the dropdown. User should be able to select any value here.
The r1c2 and r2c2, r3c2, should not change on ADDNEWROW. they should remain the same.
Hope this time i explained you correctly, and im expecting ur replies friends...
Kindly respondg back to me. thanks to all in advance,
Niraja

Hi Niraja,
Please refer the code below for filling drop down in table.... this is hard coding i.e. i m filling value directly with out using database table .now wht u have to do is that you have to create an internal table with two column one key and one value. select data from database into internal table. thn just replace hard coding with the value and key column of internal table
Please note SAP doesnt recommend usage of select query in WD abap. use any FM instead.
DATA LR_NODE_INFO TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
data ls_value type wdy_key_value.
data lt_value_set type wdy_key_value_table.

ls_value-value = 'APPLE'.
append ls_value to lt_value_set.
ls_value-key = 'b'.

append ls_value to lt_value_set.
ls_value-key = 'c'.
ls_value-value = 'GRAPES'.

lr_node_info = lr_node_info->get_child_node( 'CN_UITABLE' ).
lr_node_info->set_attribute_value_set( name = 'CA_COLUMN2' value_set = lt_value_set ).
As suggested by Stefan you can make the read only field by using enable property.
