Tables and Drop Down Lists

This is my first time using LiveCycle Designer (8.2)
I've tackled quite a few things thanks to the information I've found in these forums, but I have reached my complexity limit.
I am trying to create a survey form that follows a process map with sub-process maps.
Just to provide an idea of magnitude, one process map has eleven sub-process maps.
I created a dynamic table with the ability to add and delete rows on a flowed page.
The first row first column contains a drop down list.
For each selection in the drop down list, the form requires eight inputs.
Currently, I just copied the dynamic table for each subprocess.
Each sub process map will have a running calculated total based on two inputs and a cost based on input.
The overall process map will have the same.
The entire section should seperatly show a sum total.
I don't really know what would be best, but was thinking something along these lines:
based on the selection in the drop-down-list, if someone selects one of the sub-process maps
the row changes to allow the drop-down-list to be the one associated with that subprocess and
the two running totals show up and remain at the bottom of the table.
Only problem, is I have no idea how to do this.
I have tried making the tables invisible, but they still show the input areas of the input boxes.
Anyone feel like helping me figure this out?
Also, isn't there a way I can populate a drop down list using EXCEL?  I don't want to manually input thousands of process titles.
Oh, I don't have any XML capabilities, I am not connected to a server or any database, and everything runs at the client.

Thanks for the input, I will watch the video.
I was suprised that no one offered up any suggestions.
I changed the design of the form.  I didn't want to, but I was able to get the product out on time.
Just out of curiousity,
Can I have a dynamic drop down list (A = {a1, a2, a3, a4}) that populates another drop down list (B = {b1, b2, b3, b4, b5} ) in table (Tb1) with one of the choices in the second drop down list (B = {b5}) is a dynamic choice that makes multiple expanding tables (Tc2, Te4, Tf5 out of a total of seven tables) appear each with their own (unique) drop down list?
Or,
Would it be easier to have the first choice (i'm probably using this word incorrectly) "index" the options for the other drop down lists, etc....

  • Font in Menu Bar and Drop Down list way too small

    I just tried PSE 10 and was very surprised to see that Adobe did not address the problem with the font size being way too small in the menu bar and drop down list.  I cannot possibly read the font - so the program is basically unusable.  I am using a new 17inch laptop.  Is it possible that after all the complaints Adobe didn't fix this problem in PSE 10?  Are they even working on it?  I love the program but unfortunately I am going to have to switch to something else because there is no way I can read the font and thus cannot use the program at all.  Very, very disappointing.  Hopefully they are working on a fix???

    Photoshop CS5 Essential has preferences that offer users the opportunity to adjust menu bar background color as well as font size.  For example,
    "UI Font Size
    If you find that Photoshop's interface text is a little too small for comfort, you can increase its size by changing the UI Font Size option to either Medium or Large. And no, this option isn't just for old folks with poor eye sight. Working on a very high resolution monitor can make Photoshop's interface text appear very small. Personally, I like to set my font size to Large which I find helps to avoid eye strain. You'll need to close and then re-open Photoshop for the change to take effect:
    Change the font size to increase some of the text in Photoshop's interface.

    Tried to check whether these values are coming from ABAP side by using

    Below is the code i am using:

    When i run with normal url, the drop down are coming in bigger font size and bold. But when i run through Javafx, the drop down list items are coming as small size and normal font. I can provide the screen shots but not sure how to paste the images here or attachments. Let me know if any more information is required.

    POPULATE_LIST works with both, record groups created at runtime AND at design time.
    Try the below code on SCOTT schema with a list item and a button trigger:

  • Firefox tab to fields and drop down lists with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)

    Has any one else noticed some problems after upgrading to OS X 10.5? It seems I can't tab to every field, such as the "Keep me signed in for today" checkbox on ebay's login page. I used to tab to it before upgrading. I'm also tabbing past some drop down lists where you select the state where you live in sign up pages. And before you suggest it, I have already turned on "All Controls" in System Preferences->Keyboard & Mouse. I don't think that affects Firefox anyway since it is a system controls option and doesn't affect the actions in a browser window.
    Also, some drop down lists no longer drop down. I can focus on the list and even change the value using the up and down arrows, but the full list is no longer displayed. Again, this changed with the upgrade to Leopard.
    If any one has experienced these specific issues or something similar please share your thoughts and solutions.

    I am also having the drop down problem on my macbook, it's getting really annoying. On top of that, twice today (i just got the macbook three days ago) my keyboard will just stop working- i cannot type in firefox nor in finder or word.

  • Dynamic table with drop down lists

    I have a Dynamic table with a header row, Section and footer row.
    Section has the following cells(columns): Cell1 (drop down with locations), button (to remove row), CCode (Color Code RAL), CName (color name).
    I'm starting with 1 row.
    now what I want to do is, when they select in CCode e.g. RAL 1003 (rawValue "1") then in CName the name "signal yellow" (rawValue "1") should appear.
    I'm using javascript
    My first problem is how do I know which value is chosen, because this isn't working:
    if  (this.rawValue == 1)
    xfa.host.messageBox('Today')
    and second how do I set the value in CName
    because this only sets it in the first CName cell:
    xfa.form.DataSheet.TechnicalInformation.Markings.THatchPatterns.Section.CName.rawValue = '1';
    Please help me, I'm totally lost

    solved the problem, instead on change event put script on exit event.
    and the following line does the trick:
    xfa.resolveNode("THatchPatterns.Section[" + this.parent.index + "]").CCode.rawValue = this.rawValue

  • Why did my right click and drop down lists suddenly stopped working in firefox? How do get it fixed?

    I have the latest firefox there is and one day when i opened it, the right click button stopped working. Then even the drop down litsts stopped working. For example if i click on the firefox icon in the top left corner, nothing happens. I have tried to reinstall firefox. No help. I don't know what to do. So if don't get rid of the problem I guess I'll just have to swich to another broswer, because this is a really really anoying bug...

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • How to allow, user to enter the free text in smart forms and Drop Down list

    Hi Experts,
    How to provide the user to enter text in smart forms? ie Once the smartform generated, there the user allowed to enter text.
    And also is there any option to provide Dropdown list  in smart forms.
    Possible give with example with clear idea.
    Its very urgent!!!!
    Thanks in Advance!!!

    Hi!
    No, there's no way to it, because Smartform is just like a piece of paper, it can't handle any objects, after it is ready.
    It can be printed out/archived/sent on email as an attachment and that's all. It cannot be modified after it is completed.

  • Columns in af:table rendering multiple times when filtering drop-down list

    Technology: JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4 SU5, ADF Faces/BC
    Page design:
    Master-detail jspx.
    Each section is an af:table.
    Drop-down lists created using instructions from http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/tips/muench/screencasts/editabletabledropdown/dropdownlistineditabletable.html?_template=/ocom/technology/content/print
    Requirement:
    Data in a drop-down list on a child record needs to be filtered based on data from one or more columns in the currently selected row of the parent record.
    Issue:
    Drop-down lists have been successfully filtered using a couple of different methods, however, any time the data from the parent record is used to filter the data the columns in the child af:table begin to render multiple times. Navigating through the parent rows may cause the child records to have the correct number of columns displayed or multiple copies of the columns displayed.
    Removing any reference to the parent view object and hard-coding values instead causes this behavior to disappear.
    Each of the following methods has been tried. Each filters drop-down list data correctly and each causes apparently random extra column renders.
    1.     Cascading lists as per: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/tips/mills/cascading_lists.html
    2.     Drop-down list based on view object that takes parameters.
    3.     Set where clause for drop down list in a method on the app module.
    4.     Set where clause for drop-down list in a new selection listener method for the af:table.
    Question:
    Is there a solution available that will filter the drop-down lists correctly and prevent the extra columns from being rendered?
    Thank you for any help that you can provide,
    Joanne

  • Creating a formula using a alphabetic drop down list?

    I am creating a work sheet using formulas and drop down list. I have one drop down list that has a list of name and the second list is a list of letter that correspond to those names. (ex: column "J" on line "4 - 29" there is the letter
    "A-Z" and then continues , in column "K" line "4" starts the list of names. In Cell B4 is the drop down list of names in column "K" to choose from, I would like the letter that corresponds to that name automatically
    be put into cell A4, how do I create the formula in cell A4?

    Hi Tina,
    According to your description, please following these steps:
    With your sample as shown in the following figure, select range “J4:K29”, and click
    FORMULAS-Defined Names-Create from Selection, and check
    Right column.
    Then, use the enter formula in A4 “=INDIRECT(B4)”.

  • Trying to get Pivot table drop down list to affect bar chart below it

    Hi,
    In BI Answers I have a pivot table and a bar chart below it. At run time, I can choose a value from the
    drop down list for the pivot table, but the bar chart below it doesn't react to the new value chosen
    from the pivot table.
    Does anyone know a way to get the bar chart to receive new values, permeating down from a table view
    pivot table above it on the same report (apart from using prompted filters for the whole report).
    Many thanks,
    Jake

    you may want to try this...
    in you bar chart criteria, set prompted filters of all the dimension fields u want from the pivot table.
    in the pivot table, set action links on these dimension columns and loop it back to the current dashboard page.
    now, when u click on a value on the pivot table, the dim values of this will be passed as a parameter to the the bar chart filter set and your bar chart will change accordingly...

    Hi
    What part is your biggest problem?? I am not experienced in getting data out of a database, but the way to get a variable amount of data to show in a drop down menu, i have just messed around with for some time and heres how i solved it... In my app, what i needed was, a initial empty drop down list, and then using input from a text-field, users could add elements to a Vector that was passed to a JComboBox. Heres how.
    package jcombobox;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import java.util.Vector;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class Main extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
        private Vector<SomeClass> list = new Vector<SomeClass>();
        private JComboBox dropDownList = new JComboBox(list);
        private JButton addButton = new JButton("add");
        private JButton remove = new JButton("remove");
        private JTextField input = new JTextField(10);
        private JPanel buttons = new JPanel();
        public Main() {
            addButton.addActionListener(this);
            remove.addActionListener(this);
            input.addActionListener(this);
            buttons.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
            buttons.add(addButton);
            buttons.add(remove);
            add(dropDownList, "North");
            add(input, "Center");
            add(buttons, "South");
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
            if (e.getSource() == addButton) {
                list.addElement(new SomeClass(input.getText()));
                input.setText("");
            } else if (e.getSource() == remove) {
                int selected = dropDownList.getSelectedIndex();
                dropDownList.removeItemAt(selected);
        public void init(String[] args) {
            setSize(400,300);
            getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
            getContentPane().add(new Main());
    }And that "SomeClass" is show here
    package jcombobox;
    public class SomeClass {
        private String text;
        public SomeClass(String input) {
            text = input;
        public String toString() {
            return text;
    }One of the things i struggled a lot with was to get the dropdown menu to show some usefull result. If the list just contains class references it will show the memory code that points to that class. Thats where the toString cones in handy. But it took me some time to figure that one out, a laugh here is welcome as it should have been obvious :-)
    When the app is as simple as this one, using a <String> vector would have been easier, but this is just to demonstrate how to place classes in a vector and get some usefull info out of it, hope this answered some of your question :-)
    The layout might have been easier to write, than using the toppanel created by the JApplet and then the two additional JPanels, but it was just a small app brewed together in 15 minutes. Please comments on my faults, so that i can learn of it.
    If you need any of the code specified more, please let me know. Ill be glad to,

  • How to show "ALL" Values by default in Page Drop-Down Lists in Pivot Tables

    Hi Everyone,
    Iam stuck with 1 problem please can any 1 help me if u know the solution.
    Here is my problem:
    How to show "ALL" Values by default in Page Drop-Down Lists in Oracle BI Pivot Tables?
    For example, if you place Region in the pages area, a Region drop-down list allows the user to select a particular region, and see the data for only that region, rather than seeing all the Regions,But by default its not showing "ALL" option in the drop down list ,rather than doing that its showing result for only 1 region by default.
    And an other problem with this pages area is, if we palce the multiple attributes in the Pages area in the pivot table, the (Fields)result is showing in vertically, the attributes 1 by 1(Every attribute in a new line) ,rather than showing like that, is there any way to show the results in horizantally?(We want to have it as a seperate drop drown list for every field horizantally not as a concatenated list).

    Thanks Nikhil. But I am fetching the values from the LOVCache.java.
    I am using <af:selectManyChoice>. Is there any way I can use LOVCache.java value for selecting default values instead of hard coding?
    I mean to say can I write
    unselectedLabel="#{LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList.anyValue}"
    where LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList is used to populate the drop down box.
