How do I make a radio button control change automatically with time?

Hello everybody
I have a radio button selection with 4 options (Line A, B, C, D) which controls a number of valves depending on which line is sampled. Right now I have to do this selection manually but the proccess requires that each line is sampled for 15 seconds.
Is there a way to do this automatically, meaning when I press a button (e.x. START) radio selection goes to Line A, after 15 seconds to line B, after 15 seconds to Line C, after 15 seconds to line B, after 15 seconds to Line D, and then from the beginnining to line A, B, etc..., until I press the stop button.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks for your time

Hi evdo,
'tst' is right. The "Radio Buttons" control from the "Boolean" palette
is basically an Enum. You can add or remove elements as you want and
only one element can be TRUE at any time (just as the Enum only can
have one selected item at any time). Just copy and paste the radio
buttons within the frame to add more choices/elements.
I created a small example that takes tst's example a little further. I
implemented the four choices and added an Event Structure for better
timing. Give it a try and let me know what you think, thanks.
Have fun!

How do I make a Radio Button Widget Report to an LMS?

Alright....still trying to solve my basic problem.....
I can put in a radio button widget which looks great, but radio buttons do not report info to LMS. THen I can use Ravvi's code style to set a variable based on which radio button was clicked and then take a specific action depending on the value. The action I want is to send info to LMS. How can I do this?

I may have, but I have run across many Survey forms that do exactly that.
Some also have checkboxes as well and they are used for Check all that apply.
For all I know they may be using JavaScript code for the buttons to react the way the do.
I don't know if any of you are old enough to remember the old two button light switches. push one in and the others pop out. Push the other in and the first pops out. That's the button action I see on many survey forms.
I am not saying it correct. But if its not correct, how does one change their mind if the clicked the wrong choice?

How do I make each Radio button appear in the tab order?

When users tab through the form, the tab only highlights the first radio button of a group before moving to the next field or group of fields.
Example: the user is asked for the following information: LastName, Gender (M/F radio buttons), and BirthDate.
When tabbing through the form, users are taken from from the LastName field to the Male radio button, to the Birthdate Field. Never does the tab allow them to select Female unless they click it with the mouse.
It seems like this should be a simple fix, but I can't find it anywhere!
Thanks for your help.

That's the way they work. Think of a radio button group as a dropdown or list box. When any of these types of fields receives the focus, you can use the arrow keys to move through the options and the tab key moves to the next field.
If you set up the group using check boxes instead, giving each in the group the same name but different export value, they will behave as you want. A group of checkboxes will behave a bit different than a group of radio buttons, but it's close.

How do I make a radio button choice on a form stand out more?

I have created a form with lots of square radio buttons. I would like the user's choices stand out more on the form. Right now all I get is a small square black dot in the middle of a white square. Is there a way to fill the whole square in, or better yet, have a check mark (like in a checked box) instead of the small square black dot? I am using Acrobat X Pro.

You can change the size of the box to get a larger button, and of course
you change the style of the check-mark by editing Properties - Options -
Button Style.

How do i make a submit button work on mobile with my PDF

I do not want to use the Adobe Forms Central. I have a client that wants a PDF on their mobile site to be readable and editable on an iPad. The submit button does not work. Is there a work around or another means to make this work. I realize the PDF form can be emailed via the iPad, but not all the people or "customers" know the email address to send to, so how can i make this work. Any suggestions or anyone else encounter this issue? I do not want to have to ask my client to ask his customers to go purchase software, when they should be able to just download adobe reader to fill out the form and send it like we can do on a regular desktop.

I created the PDF and at the end placed the submit button with the following actions (screenshots included):
Setting for the Submit form:
Submit button at the bottom of the last page of the application:
Maybe I have it all set up incorrectly, but from all that I have read it works fine on the desktop, but when the iPad is used, the submit button becomes inactive. I thought there could be some work around to make it work other than the "actions" or javascript, but I have also seen other forms that have javascript work on the iPad, so it has me totally confused.
Thank you.

How can I make the standby button also change ringer profile?

I do not use a holster but would like the standby mode (pressing mute) to use the holster profile settings. Or if this is not possible is there any way to make it automatically change ringer profiles when placed in standby? I would like to change to vibrate when in standby mode as the phone will be in my pocket.

Standby option is capable of doing so. That wish can be materialized only if you use holster.

How do I disable one item in a radio buttons control at run time

I need to disable one item in a radio buttons control. At design time
this is possible, but how do I do this at run time? Is this possible? I
cannot find a property per item

Use the property "Controls[ ]" - this gives you an array with references of each single button in the radio buttons control. These you can access with property nodes too.
Hope this helps.

How to create a radio button that changes colors

I'm using Acrobat X and ID CS5 on Mac OS X.
A couple of years ago someone on the forums explained to me how to create a button that changes color with each click. You can view a sample PDF at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52882455/colorcycle.pdf. They gave me the document JS and showed me how to set the properties of the button. I've integrated the button into a particular series of PDF forms and it's worked out very well.
Now I would like to do the same thing, but using a circle instead of a square. Can anyone tell me the best way to do this? Can I somehow set a radio button to cycle through colors in the same way? I design my forms initially in ID CS5 and then activate and format the fields in Acrobat X. I've tried using circles instead of squares in my ID document, but when I export to an interactive PDF, they're converted to squares.
Any ideas?

I understand how to make buttons cycle through colors-- the problem I'm having is that I'm trying to figure out how to make a circular button cycle through colors. When I export my ID document to PDF, my round button maintains it's original appearance, but when I click on it to cycle through the colors, it behaves like a square (see new PDF at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52882455/colorcycle2.pdf).
If I use a radio button, I can get it to cycle through colors, but I don't want it to have a black dot in the middle. Is there a way to format the radio button to not show the black dot when clicked?

How do I include the radio-button items on a second column as possible answers to the question?

Using Adobe Acrobat Pro X, we created a fillable PDF from an existing PDF.
One question can be answered by choosing one of four choices (radio buttons). The answers are laid out in a 2-by-2 arrangement.
When Acrobat Pro converted the PDF into fillable format, it thought that the radio-button answers on the second column are not part of the question.
How can I manually override Acrobat and make choices 3 and 4 part of the question.
Please click attached screenshot for better zoom.

How do I give each radio button the same name but unique button values?
I right-clicked the first radio button, chose Properties (Ctrl+I).
I copied the name: "What is your personal net worth in Canadian dollars including spousecommon law partner if applicable".
I clicked Close.
I then went into the Properties dialog window of the third radio button, which is one of the ungrouped choices. I pasted the name [What is your personal net worth in Canadian dollars including spousecommon law partner if applicable]. I then clicked Close.
I get an error message pop up:
A field of a different type already uses this name. Please choose a new name for the field, or change the field type to match the existing field with this name.
What must I do now?
Thanks.

How can I make the playback buttons of YouTube and other plug-ins bigger since they are so tiny?

How can I make the playback buttons of YouTube and other plug-ins bigger since they are so tiny in Firefox? I tried some suggestions that dealt with entering "about:config" in a fresh browser, but to no avail. I also downloaded an add-on called "Theme Font & Size Changer", but that didn't work either. So, I am reaching out here as that was a suggestion that another user here offered.

Ah, yes- that is an ultra high DPI (dots per inch) display. This is a known issue in Flash Player, which Adobe is working on fixing.
In the mean time, you can get some videos to have normal-sized controls by switching Youtube to the HTML5 video player:
In Firefox, go to https://www.youtube.com/html5 and click the "Request the HTML5 player" button.

RADIO BUTTON EXAMPLE.vi ‏14 KB

Thanks for the replies. Sorry if I was not clear. The indicators (big) are only indicative of the function I was looking for. I am having to send a radio button control signal down through a class - actor loop from the UI to the RealTime control on cRIO and back to the UI. The loop and communication I have done but for some reason the radio button has a weird functionality where it only shows one true/false value through the loop and back up to the UI.
meaning -
in the example the radio button has two controls radio 1 and radio 2. when they switch between the two I get the true/false value of only radio 2. so it signals radio 2 is true when radio 2 is on, and radio 2 false when radio 1 is on. As seen with a probe on the array wired into the for loop.
the value does change on NewVal line between radio 1 and 2 but when it is broadcast to the cRIO it shows only the value of radio 2 as being true/false. This is fine for the output channel as they energize correctly. (two different outputs) but It does not allow me to use the broadcast data back to the UI in the same way as if it were two booleans, not one radio button.
so in short I was trying to figure out a way to get the radio button to act llike a radio button on the front panel but act like two booleans on the return trip...
I hope that makes sense. Unfortunately, I can't supply code for the program (proprietary development) hence the example of functionality. (pretend the indicators are on the return loop)
