3 state checkbox: check OR cross OR off

Is it possible to add a script to the click event to set the check style? I would like an On value (1) to show a check, an Off value (0) to show a cross and a Neutral value (2) to set the checkbox to blank. When I'm in the code window (language set to formcalc) and I type the field name and hit the . key I don't see anything that looks like it would be the check style to set. In another post I found the following:
style.ch    checkmark
style.cr    cross
style.di    diamond
style.ci    circle
style.st    star
style.sq    square
but I don't see how I'm supposed to set the value

Hi,
It is possible, but involves a bit of script. Here is an example: https://acrobat.com/#d=4gSLmyfhH6ejuEXweY9bKA
I don't think you will be able to achieve all that you want, as the default behaviour is that if the checkbox is off there is no mark in the box. I don't think you can influence/change that behaviour.
You could change the specified values to mimic off/neutral.
Hope that helps,

Tri - State Checkbox in pdf form

Hi all,
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard to create forms. I want to include a tri state checkbox (Checked / Un-Unchecked / Crossed) in my form. There is an option to add checkboxes but they are only bi state ( Checked & Un Checked). Do you have any idea how to solve this?
Best Regards,
Sameer

I don't think it can be done, but why not ask in the Acrobat forum. This is the Reader forum. Acrobat users are more likely to come up with a method that might work than Reader users that do not use Acrobat.

Tri - State Checkbox in a pdf form

It doesn't meet your 'design spec' Sameer, but I think many of us would just include two (Y,N) or three (Y,N,N/a) checkboxes against each question and assign them all the same name (eg 'Q1'), but ticks to the Y and N/a, and a cross to the 'N', and different export values so that only one of them can be checked.
I usually include the boxes in the original file and add a slightly bigger 'no border' checkbox in Acrobat, as I think they look better if the 'tick' is bigger than the box rather than just filling it (much like it would if done in pen and ink), but that's just a personal preference.

Insert statement in when-checkbox-checked trigger doesn't work

in a when-checkbox-checked trigger, I wrote the follwing code :
IF :sunday = 'Y' THEN
msg_alert('Y','I',false);
pkg_var.v_day_count := pkg_var.v_day_count + 1;
msg_alert('1','I',false);
:schtm_skmk.day_id := '1';
msg_alert('2 ',I',false);
INSERT INTO schtm
(ROUTE_ID, DAY_ID, FLIGHT_ID)
VALUES
(:schmf.ROUTE_ID, :schtm_skmk.day_id, 1);
COMMIT;
msg_alert('end insert schtm','I',false);
END IF;
if the checkbox is checked, I assigned value '1' to day_id. Then, I want to insert a row into table SCHTM. But, the insert statement fail. The msg_alert '2' pop up. The msg_alert 'end insert schtm' does not pop up, meaning the insert statement fail. It also fail after I replace the insert statement with the exact value of the item. But if I execute this statement in SQL plus, it insert a row into the database.
What is strange here is it did work before, I successfully insert 2 rows into database. But when I test it again just a while later, it never work anymore.
Please help.
Thanks,

It seems that you have missed ELSE. By the way there is only one INSERT ...

Checkboxes checked and pagination

Hi,
I have a paginated datagrid done with a report , displaying on each page :
- a checkbox in the header to select all
- on checkbox on each row
My problem is just that i would like to keep (in session) the checked rows (for each page) : then navigating from next to previous i could retrieve what i've checked before (the same as GMail)
My primary idea idea was to use an application item on server side, but i should intercept next previous actions behind the navigation control links to be able to save the checked rows for each page.
I should be able to rerender (with Javascript) the checked row on each page.
Any idea?

OK, the code above could be ameneded to:
// Initialize count
var sum = 0;
// If a check box is not Off, count it
for (var i = 1; i < 16; i += 1) {
sum += getField("checkbox" + i).value !== "Off" ? 1 : 0;
if (sum > 5) {
// clear fields here
for (var i = 1; i < 16; i += 1) {
getField("checkbox" + i).value = "Off";
app.alert("Your message goes here.");
} else {
TestLetter1();
> The change of background color does not occur as the function TestLetter1() is not called yet, I think.
It would be possible. If you set the background colors with the first press of the button and the user goes back and checks more check boxes, the background colors would not be properly set if the button were pressed again.

Why doesn't the checkbox check?

I have a JTable that has a column of (Boolean.class). So it displays a checkbox.
The public boolean isCellEditable( int row, int column ) returns true.
The public final Class getColumnClass( int column ) returns Boolean.class
There is no default renderer overiding it. ( i.e. I never set setDefaultRenderer() )
So, I don't know why it won't set the checkbox to 'checked' state when I click on it.

This shows the checkboxes are always false, so I guess I'll have to overwrite the default setValueAt() method...
public void setAllSelected( boolean flag )
    int rowSize = getRowCount();
    System.out.println( "RowSize: "+rowSize+", boolean: "+flag );
    for( int row = 0; row < rowSize; row++ )
      setValueAt( new Boolean( flag ), row, XML_Table.CHECK_COL );
      fireTableDataChanged();
      Boolean b = (Boolean)getValueAt(row, XML_Table.CHECK_COL);
      System.out.println( "Is Checkbox checked: "+b.booleanValue() );
}

When the update statement will check the constraint violation ?

Hello all,
i am working on data masking of production data using oracle Translate function.i have created a function otis_mask using translate function to mask sensitive values .For this i am tesitng on a small table. i have created a table with single primary key column SSN.
sql>desc SSN_MASK
Name Null? Type
SSN NOT NULL NUMBER(10)
1) i have inserted the value 9949577766. if resulted mask value exist in table it should throw the constraint violation error.But it is not throwing any error.rows are properly updating .
Eg:-
Table contains below values.
PA_DATA_SUB @qdsrih30 >select *from SSN_MASK;
SSN
7727399911
9949577766
9989477700
UPDATE SSN_MASK SET SSN=otis_mask(SSN);
if above update statement process 7727399911 first then resulted mask value is 9989477700.This value is already in the table.
if the update statement process 9949577766 first then resulted mask value is 7727399911.This value is already in the table.
in any of the above scenario update statement should have to throw constraint violation error. But its not happening. rows are properly updating . when the update statement checking the constraint violation ? after processing all the rows or processing of each row ?
Please help me in understandding the update statement processing ?
Thanks,
Venkat Vadlamudi.

1)created a function as below.
CREATE OR REPLACE Function otis_mask(incol varchar2) return varchar2 is
random_str varchar2(20);
begin
select (translate(incol,'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890','qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnmQWERTYUIOPASDFGHJKLZXCVBNM0842319576')) INTO random_str FROM DUAL;
return random_str;
end;
2. create a table ssn_mask.
create table ssn_mask(ssn number(10) primary key);
3) inserted 3 rows as below.
insert into ssn_mask values(9949577766);
insert into ssn_mask values(7727399911);
insert into ssn_mask values(9989477700);
4)UPDATE SSN_MASK SET SSN=otis_mask(SSN);
5) Table contains below rows.
Sql >select *from SSN_MASK;
SSN
9949577766
7727399911
9989477700.
6)UPDATE SSN_MASK SET SSN=otis_mask(SSN);
If the above statement process first row 9949577766,then otis_mask function will return 7727399911 and update statement will update the value of 9949577766 to 7727399911 .At this case 7727399911 is already in the table.So update statement should have to throw primary key constraint violation error.
If the above statement process second row 7727399911 first ,then otis_mask function will return 9989477700.and update statement will update the value of 7727399911 to 9989477700.At this case 9989477700 is already in the table.So update statement should have to throw primary key constraint violation error.
But its not throwing any integrity constraint violation error.
i just want to know when update statement will check the constraint ?
is update statement will first process all records and kepp in handy the new values then update the table with new values (or) process the first row and update the new value with old value then process second row and update with new value so on ?
Thanks,
Venkat Vadlamudi.

Dynamic selection of records based on checkbox checked

Hello,
I want to select a list of records from a multirecord block by
using the checkbox checked values as the criterion and use the
records selected in the where clause for querying in another
forms. The data from the multirecord block is from a query
result and hence is dynamic.
I went about doing this:
I created a multirecord block. In the multirecord block, I
created a checkbox which was a non-database item.
In the when_button_pressed trigger I wrote the following code:
declare
     temp varchar2(1000);
     start_rec number;
     stop_rec number;
     item_id item;
     block_id block;
     item_value varchar2(1000);
     pl_id paramlist;
     item_name varchar2(10);
     patient_list varchar2(1000);
begin
go_block('patient_list');
block_id:=find_block('patient_list');
start_rec:=1;
stop_rec:=get_block_property(block_id,query_hits);
for i in start_rec..stop_rec loop
if :selection='Y' then --selection is the checkbox
     if item_value is null then
/*item_value holds the value of the data shown in the forms &
for which the checkbox is checked*/
item_value:=name_in(':patient_list.patient_id');
/*patient_id is the item name as well as field name in the
table*/
     else
item_value:=item_value||','||name_in(':patient_list.patient_id');
     end if;
end if;
end loop;
patient_list:='('||item_value||')';
pl_id:=create_parameter_list('list_of_patients');
add_parameter(pl_id,'querypatients',text_parameter,patient_list);
message(patientlist);
run_product
(forms,'patient_history',synchronous,runtime,filesystem,pl_id,nul
l);
end;
When I run this form, patient_list comes as
(111,111,111,111,111,111,111) where
111 is the value of the patient_id.
The only value that gets into the patient_list is the patient_id
for the last checkbox I have
checked in the forms and the same patient_id appears so many
times.
Can anyone tell me where I am doing the mistake? Why is the same
value appearing so many times and only the last record selected
appears in the patient_list.
Thank you for your suggestions.

Thank You.
I added go_record(start_rec) and next_record and everything
worked fine.
Here I have the working code:
declare
     temp varchar2(1000);
     start_rec number;
     stop_rec number;
     item_id item;
     block_id block;
     item_value varchar2(1000);
     pl_id paramlist;
     item_name varchar2(10);
     patient_list varchar2(1000);
begin
     go_block('patient_list');
     block_id:=find_block('patient_list');
     start_rec:=1;
     stop_rec:=get_block_property(block_id,query_hits);
go_record(start_rec);-- I added it
     for i in start_rec..stop_rec loop
     if :selection='Y' then --selection is the checkbox in
the patient_list block.
     if item_value is null then
-- item_value holds the value of the data shown in the forms and
for which the checkbox is checked
     item_value:=name_in(':patient_list.patient_id');
-- patient_id is the item name as well as field name in the table
     else
     item_value:=item_value||','||name_in
(':patient_list.patient_id');
     end if;
     end if;
next_record;-- I added it
     end loop;
patient_list:='('||item_value||')';
pl_id:=create_parameter_list('list_of_patients');
add_parameter(pl_id,'querypatients',text_parameter,patient_list);
message(patientlist);

Hi All,
My scenorio is,

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry my variable is userAdmin.
I have getUserAdmin() method in the C.java(server side pojo )?
But its return type is String.(return type String because I want to save "Y / N") while saving
public class C{ // server side pojo
private String userAdmin; // corresponding getter & setter
lly, I have getUserAdmin() method in cleint side pojo
public class B{ // client side pojo
private boolean userAdmin; // corresponding getter & setter
but while saving I am doing as,
public class SaveClass
public String saveMethod()
C c = new C();
B bb = new B();
if (bb.getUserAdmin() == Boolean.TRUE)
c.setUserAdmin("Y");
else
c.setUserAdmin("N");
// in client side pojo userAdmin variable's return type is boolean for checking as,
if (bb.getUserAdmin() == Boolean.TRUE)
but on server side its String for saving "Y / N",
if (bb.getUserAdmin() == Boolean.TRUE)
aa.setUserAdmin("Y"); /// to save String here
So if I write in JSP,
<h:selectBooleanCheckbox value="#{BeanName.c.userAdmin}"/>
its giving error as,
javax.servlet.ServletException: Expected submitted value of type Boolean for Component : {Component-Path :.................

3 State CheckBox Tree

I just downloaded the 3 State CheckBox Tree custom control
from the Flex dev exchange a few moments ago. I put the code into a
Flex prject, compiled it and ran it pretty much unchanged. When I
click on any of the tree controls I get the error message:
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must
be a child of the caller.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/getChildIndex()
at mx.managers::SystemManager/getChildIndex()
at mx.managers::SystemManager/::mouseDownHandler()
Anybody else download this tag and have a problem like
this???
Have an Ordinary Day...
KomputerMan ~|:-)

O.K. I pulled the downloaded component inside an existing
application and ran it from there. The problem was that the
downloaded component had a <mx:Application...> tag in it
which gave me two templates with the <mx:Application ...>
tag. Flex didn't like this too much. After I renamed the
<mx:Application...> tag in the downloaded component to
<mx:Canvas...> life was good. One of those duh moments...
DUH!!! :)

To make a checkbox checked by default

I have files that say they are missing or offline. I have checked all my folders off of lightroom and they can not be found. I have used the ? mark settings to find and still not found. I can see the images on lightroom so they have to be in my system some how. How can I retrieve these images? Is there a re boot for lightroom? Need help ASAP!

You have probably moved the files outside of Lightroom. The images you see in LR are previews that were made before you moved the files.
Do a search for the files/folders using your computers operating system. (Explorer/Finder)
Once you have found them, you can point LR to the right location.

Making checkboxes checked only when a certain value is true

I am trying to make a checkbox dynamically check itself. I only want the checkbox to be marked if a value is true. I am using JSP
here is what my code looks like.
<input type="checkbox" name = "Full1" value ="0">
<input type="checkbox" name = "ReadWrite1" value ="1">
<input type="checkbox" name = "Read1" value ="2">
<input type="checkbox" name = "Delete" value ="0">
say that my variable is
var = 0;
I want to to do something like this
if(var=0)
<input type="checkbox" checked name = "Full1" value ="0">
else
<input type="checkbox" name = "Full1" value ="0">

Guys, he said he was using jsp.
So Scooter, assuming that's what you meant (and not client-side javascript), you could achieve this effect with:
<% if (var == 0) { %>
<input type="checkbox" checked name="Full1" value="0">
<% } else { %>
<input type="checkbox" name="Full1" value ="0">
<% } %>

Checkbox check problem

i cant seem to find the setting to change a checkbox check mark to an X instead of a check when selected. also when i change the size of the checkbox to 6pt or so when viewed the check mark inside is not completely displayed. thanks for any help.

Unfortunately you are not able to change this property in Designer either through the XML Source or through scripting. If you try and change it through scripting, you will receive a security exception and your script will fail.
It is interesting in the difference in checkbox appearance between versions of PDF. Never noticed this before.
