Auto fit-width of form on open

I have created a fillable form that has an orientation of landscape.  When we open it in Internet Explorer, it fits the entire form in the browser instead of doing a "fit width".  This causes my users to have to fit it to the width in IE manually.  Some of my users have a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 and some have a screen resolution of 800 x 600.  I would like to force a "fit width" when anyone opens the form in IE.  How can I force that?  If this requires programming code I will need specifics.  Thanks!

Hi,
No; I would not recommend inserting script directly into the XML Source tab. You rarely have to go in here.
If you go to the Design view and select on of the objects in your form (TextField, numericField, etc). Then check that your Script Editor is open, it should be visible at the top of the window, just below the menu and toolbars. It may only be one line high, if that is the case then drag the bottom bar to make it bigger.
If you cannot see the Script Editor, then you can open in from the Window menu or select Control+Shift+F5.
When you select an object, you can go to the Script Editor and select from the dropdown which event you want to script for. In this case we are looking for the Initialize event. The script is Javascript so you need to check that in the language dropdown. Also unless you are using a server solution, your scripts will run at Client.
You can put in the script into the Script Editor.
Hope that helps,
Niall

  • Auto fit columns in excel using open xml

    I have generate excel using open xml and it contain auto fit property for columns. my problem is that the excel is opening very well in kingsoft spreadsheets

    Hi Raj12345,
    >> I have generate excel using open xml and it contain auto fit property for columns. my problem is that the excel is opening very well in kingsoft spreadsheets and other tools, but not opening in microsoft excel 2013 and older version
    I assume you was using OpenXML SDK and I'm afraid we are not able to find the root cause according to your description, would you mind sharing us some code sample to reproduce this issue.
    >> Is there any solution for auto fit columns in excel using open xml and should open in Microsoft excel  all version
    As far as I know, there is no auto fit property for columns in excel with openxml. I am afraid that you need to calculate the column width depending on the cell contents, and then set the column width. The link below shows more details:

  • How do I make Finder columns auto-fit width of filenames?

    This is a tiny irritant, as such things go, but maybe one with an easy fix, if I only knew it. I normally use the Finder window in column view. Longer filenames are truncated by dots in the middle. In order to see the entire filenames, I have to go to the bottom of each column and use my mouse pointer to drag the column wider.
    Is there not a way to set the columns to either "fit widest entry" or fit some wider size that I preset for them?

    Option dragging the resize widget || will resize all columns, wide or narrow, all the same and seems to stick.
    Otherwise:
    Double clicking on the resize widget || will temporarily expand that column to show all.
    Option double click will temporarily resize all columns to the largest width needed..
    Have fun.

  • Is there a way to convert bookmarks from opening as Fit Width size to Fit Page without doing each one individually?

    I have a document that has a number of bookmarks already in it.  I cannot figure out how to change their behavior when clicking on them unless I change each one one at a time.  There are 822 pages and at least that many bookmarks.  Any way to tell Acrobat to make them all open in a fit page view instead of the Fit Width they are in now?  Save me a ton of time.  Thanks for any help.  Using Acrobat Pro XI on a Mac...standalone application...not in the cloud.

    Hi William,
    You can go to View> Zoom> Fit Width and the setting will be applied to the complete pdf.

  • How to auto fit column width?

    Hi experts,
      When I design a input schedule, I find a problem, some columns can auto fit column width when I input numerics, some columns can not! how can I fix my input schedule and let all column can auto fit column width?
    best regard

    Evans,
          If you are using standard template and which is not working for 2 data ranges.
          I think you can customize using VBA Macros. It is possible using Macros. I'm not sure is it BUG from SAP.
         Try to put VBA code in AFTER_REFRESH i guess.
          You can VBA Macro code mention below.
          for Column D: Columns("D:D").EntireColumn.AutoFit
          For all Columns: Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit
          For Only Data Ranges: Determine columns from data range using VBA code and use VBA code given for Column .
    Thanks,

  • Auto-Create a form number when form is opened.

    Hello,
    I was wondering if I can auto-create a number to populate in sequence every time I open the form?  For example, Microsoft Word, Excel auto populates the date when the form is open.  I'd like the same functionality when creating a form to auto-populate a number counter each time the form is opened.
    Any ideas?

    That depends on how the PDF is being created and served to users.
    If you are simply putting an interactive PDF form on a file share or a web site, you could attach script to a form event to generate a unique id but it will not be a sequential number. To create a sequentially unique id you will have to call a server process which maintains the sequential number through a call to a persistent store (a database, XML file, flat file, etcetera).
    If you are generating the PDF form using LiveCycle (server solution), the server process used for generating the form could call a process as described above.

  • Need solution for auto-fit problems

    I've got a form with 7 text boxes that I'm looking to get copy to auto-fit properly. I'd also like to flow the content without having to start from scratch with a new form.
    Here are my problems:
    - "Expand to fit" is grayed out for both the height and width on every text box.
    - "Allow page breaks within content" and "Keep with next" are also grayed out on every text box.
    - I also have "make fixed-size text object auto-fit while editing" checked to perform in my options and it's not doing that at all.
    HELP!!!! Thanks.
    Gabriel Daigle

    Tried this.  Didn't work.  All those items mentioned previously, as well as anything having to do with subforms, are grayed out. Even tried a new document with flowable layout, added text boxes, and everything is still grayed out.  Any other solutions out there?

  • REQ: Add 'Fit-width' or 'Fit-visible' view mode, in which the zoom level is automatically set based on the width of the _current_ page.

    Currently, the default zoom level when viewing a page of a PDF file is automatically calculated based on the width of the "widest" page of the document. This means that, if the document contains one page that is wider than the others or is in landscape orientation, then the default zoom, when viewing all the other narrower pages, is set in a way so that the page does not use the full width of the screen. This results in very poor experience, because the zoom level and the visible area of the page have to be constantly adjusted for each page. The latest update (at the time of writing) has added some extra view modes, but not the much needed 'Fit width' or 'Fit visible'.
    Personally, I can find no reason valid enough to justify the lack of such a view mode. Automatically setting the zoom level based on the width of the current page so as to take advantage of the full width of the screen should be a must have feature for mobile devices, if not the default behavior. The current default behavior regarding the zoom level is pretty much useless, even on 8"/10" screens. There should be a view mode in which the full width of the screen is always used to display the document.
    Examples of documents for which the Adobe Reader for Android provides a poor reading experience are:
    documents which contain some of their pages in landscape orientation.
    publications which, apart from the main content, also contain the full front and back cover in a single page (usually first page which is much wider than the content pages) or any other extra pages like cards or application forms (that are meant to be printed) which usually use an A4/Letter page size etc.
    documents which have been cropped by external utilities or scripts so as to eliminate unneeded white margins (in some cases not all pages have the same width).
    Please consider fixing the default behavior in future releases of the Reader for Android or add a 'Fit width' or 'Fit visible' view mode.
    Thank you in advance.

    Improved descriptions of example documents.

    To add to this, if you prefer you can separate your JavaScript from your JSF pages.
    Add a folder (I named mine 'js') to your application's ViewController project's public_html folder.
    Via JDeveloper, create a new JavaScript file inside your newly created folder and place your JavaScript functions inside it.
    You can then 'load' the .js file using the method Shantala described, with the addition of an added 'source' property to the af:reference tag.
    (This can also be a URI reference to a JavaScript file hosted on a web server)
    <f:facet name="metaContainer">
      <af:resource source="/js/myJsFile.js" type="javascript"/>
    </f:facet>The benefits of this 'split' are cleaner JSF page source and also code-highlighting and formatting within the .js file making finding and fixing bugs in your JavaScript much easier.
    It appears however, that when using <af:resource> to load scripts, once the page has been submitted even once, the JavaScript is no longer available to the page. Which isn't very useful.
    A solution is to use <trh:script>.
    Add xmlns:trh="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/html" to your <jsp:root> tag and install the library.
    then in place of the above code use:
    <f:facet name="metaContainer">
      <trh:script id="script1" source="/js/myJsFile.js"/>
    </f:facet>Now after a page submit the JavaScript still functions.

  • Creating a date field that autogenerates when form is opened but the date is fixed upon signing.

    Hi,
    I have been creating a series of PDF forms on Adobe XI Pro that are designed to be filled in using Adobe Reader (hence are saved as Adobe Reader Extended). Once the form is complete there are signature fields that the user digitally signs which then deactivates specific form fields from further editing. Alongside the signature field I have got a date field which, at the moment, is using JavaScript to auto-generate the current date upon opening. However, the issue I am having is that I want this date field to be fixed when the form is signed, rather than updating again when the form is next opened. Is this possible?
    The document JavaScript that I am currently using to generate the date is as follows:
    this.getField("PR_Date1").value = util.printd("dd/mmm/yyyy", new Date());
    But obviously this is independent of the date field.
    I am very new to Adobe in general so I don't have much of an idea about how to go about doing this. Could somebody please help me to do this if it is possible?
    Thank you
    KC

    Hélène-
    Thanks for the detail regarding validation script, but I still am having a problem with it.
    I have tried what you told me (remove reset the value) the popup no longer appears when the form is opened. But the validation does not seen to be working. It is not working either in the validate or exit event. This is what I have now on that text field.
    ----- form1.#subform[0].Y::exit - (JavaScript, client) ---------------------------------------------
    //Verify year is current or year+1
    var today = new Date();
    var year = today.getFullYear();
    if (this.rawValue == year || this.rawValue == year+1)
    app.alert("Year is invalid.\n\nOnly current or next year is valid.");
    ----- form1.#subform[0].Y::validate - (JavaScript, client) -----------------------------------------
    //Final verification
    ScriptObject.ValidateField(event.target, this);
    This final verification script I have taken from the samples on the
    LiveCycle Developer Center (Validating field content in a form hosted in Adobe Acrobat).
    The alert only displays when 2007 or 2008 is entered. I am really confused now. I thought I had a handle on this with your explanation.
    I do not know where to go now. The Object Pallet is setup as:
    Field Tab
    Allow Plain Text Only and Limit Length are checked with a Max Chars: 4. Edit Pattern: 99999
    Value Tab
    Type: User Entered - Required
    Validation Pattern: 9999
    Validation Script Message is checked - in Message box Invalid Year.
    Binding Tab
    Default Binding: Normal
    Data Format: Plain Text
    I am hoping that you can explain what I have wrong.
    Thanks so much,
    Confused Nancy

  • Auto fit weight & auto fit height in Graphics

    Dear gurus,
    Especially in drill downs, in graphics I need to a feature like "auto fit weight & auto fit height". For example column chart weight is 10 cm, height is 6 cm. In drill down if the lines are not too much chart's columns can be too huge; or if the lines are too much chart's columns can be too small. Therefore the system should change weight and height automatically. I haven't seen any dynamic weight and height feature like is in 'format size' (you know well in format size, we can use auto fit weight & auto fit height feature). Anybody knows? Thank you.

    Hi
    Which Charts are you have used?
    if you want to change format size (it means Columnssize in Coumn Chart is varied according to lines,if you have many lines in the column chart it will show too small or if you have less it will show too huge) for that better to use coumn chart,bar chart.
    If you don't want to change format size( means the line width and height is not changed according to labels if you have many or less it will shows fixed size.) for that better to use LineChart.
    i hope it may help you.
    Regards

  • Query form when opening the application (update state)

    How do I set a form to auto query when opening it?
    I read some things about, but did not find a good answer. I made a button which updates selected values in two LOV's. For that button to appear, i need to press the Query button. Else it is not visible.
    Any id how I can get the form to open in a state, that the update button becomes visible?
    THANKS!

    I was able to do this with Javascript. In your first lOV, add the following code in the OnChange event:
    javascript:for (var i=0; i < document.forms[0].elements.length; i++)
    if (document.forms[0].elements.name.substring(document.forms[0].elements[i].name.indexOf('DEFAULT.')+8,document.forms[0].elements[i].name.lastIndexOf('.01')) == "QUERY_TOP")
