How to get prefilled drop down list in Adobe form from WebDynpro context

Hi All,
We all know that we can have dropdown list in webdynpro which can be automatically populated by the context node collection.
How can we have the same functionality in Adobe form drop down list. I tried to bind the node attribute to drop down list in Adobe form but it shows me only first element. I am not able to see all the elements in the dropdown but if I am doing same thing for WebDynpro DropDown list I can see the complete List.
Anybody with Solution?

Can't find "Libraries" under Windows drop down menu in Adobe Illustrator CC on Mac?

I was searching forums to solve my issue (as stated in the subject) but could not figure out why I am unable to see "libraries" on my freshly updated Illustrator CC w/ Creative Cloud. I am attempting to use an image captured in Adobe Shape but am unable to because the windows drop-down menu does not show libraries.
I was wondering if anyone was ever able to help someone solve there issues with this? Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi simonkirk2012,
You need to install Illustrator CC2014 which is version 18. You can log off from creative cloud Desktop app and login back and check do you have any option to install AI CC2014. Also please check your operating system meets the requirements for CC2014 version.

How do you Make an Interactive Drop Down Menu in Adobe Acrobat Pro That Uses Hyperlinks?

Hi first off let me point out and apologise in advance for my ignorance and possibly my misuse of the correct terms, I'm new to this.
Anyway here goes, my best attempt to try and explain myself. Using Adobe Acrobat Pro I am trying to create a drop down menu that lists a set of documents. Once you click an item in the drop down menu it then opens up the corresponding document. So far example the Menu reads "Documents" and below it there is three options "Dogs" "Cats" "Hotdogs" when you click on "Hotdogs" you open up the document for hotdogs etc.
I have actually done it once before using Javascript and a combo box and I think basically you buried the links to documents in a series of bookmarks, the Javascript code then was basically a shortcut to activate those bookmarks.
So in short, could someone please tell me the code I would need to make this happen? I have looked extensively for the right forum post to see if my question has already been covered but I couldn't find anything and I possibly could have been using the wrong search terms.
Please ask me to clarify anything to help you understand what it is I'm asking.
Thank you in advance for all your help.
Elliot.

Hey I think I found a solution to my own problem I made an "OK Button" right click>properties>actions>select action>run a javascript>add - and executed this code:
function searchBookmarks(bkm, nLevel, bkmName)
if ( bkm.name == bkmName ) return bkm;
if (bkm.children != null) {
for (var i = 0; i < bkm.children.length; i++)
var bkMark = searchBookmarks(
bkm.children[i], nLevel + 1, bkmName);
if ( bkMark != null ) break;
return bkMark;
return null;
function bookmarksAsPopUp(bookmarks)
   if(bookmarks && bookmarks.children)
     for(var i=0;i<bookmarks.children.length;i++)
bookmarkName = bookmarks.children[i].name.replace(/\s{2,}/g,' ');
while (bookmarkName.indexOf(String.fromCharCode(11)) > 0)
bookmarkName = bookmarkName.substring(0,bookmarkName.indexOf(String.fromCharCode(11))) +" "+ bookmarkName.substring(bookmarkName.indexOf(String.fromCharCode(11))+1)
popUp = popUp+"{cName: '"+bookmarkName+"', cReturn: '"+bookmarkName+"'" ;
if(bookmarks.children[i].children)
          popUp = popUp + ", oSubMenu: [";
   bookmarksAsPopUp(bookmarks.children[i]);
   popUp = popUp + "]";
popUp = popUp+"}";
if (i != bookmarks.children.length-1)
popUp = popUp+", "
   return popUp;
var popUp = "";
bookmarksAsPopUp(this.bookmarkRoot);
var cChoice = eval("app.popUpMenuEx(" + popUp + ")" ) ;
bkm = searchBookmarks(this.bookmarkRoot, 0, cChoice );
if ( bkm != null ) bkm.execute();
Then you can just add your own bookmarks and they populate the pop-up menu automatically (including the hierarchy sub menu structure, you nest bookmarks within a main book mark.) which is a more efficient way than the one I used before.
I take no credit for this by the way my source is here PDF Bookmarks as a PopUp Menu | The Practical:PDF Blog
I hope this helps anybody looking to do the same.

Hi,
If you are using WD Java following are steps of filling values in DD Box:

IWDAttributeInfo countryinfo =
wdContext.nodeEmployee().getNodeInfo().getAttribute("CountryNew");
ISimpleTypeModifiable Country = countryinfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
IModifiableSimpleValueSet countryValueSet =
Country.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();

Populate Drop down values to Adobe forms

Hello,
I am in the process of developing the HCM forms for PCR's. This is using old technology. How can I pass values to the Adobe forms based on certain condition selected in previous screen. For eg. Based on Position selected, I should have a certain value in Drop down pre-selected on the next screen and when the user does a drop down a list of the values should be listed. Where should do the coding for the subsequent drop down values?
Appropriate points rewarded.
Prasad

Here a change in the question below. Based on Position selected, I should have a certain value in Drop down pre-selected on the next screen from table IT1008
and when job is selected drop down from table T500P should be listed. Does this need to be handled in badi or in the Adove form scripting?
Thanks
Prasad

Dynamic drop down list in Adobe forms

I have created a drop down list using enumerated drop down list from webdynpro native tab and binded in the object palette by giving $record.sap-vhlist.DESCR\.DATA\.FIELD.item[]* in the list items dynamically.DESCR is the field in the internal table into which i fetched data from the database table .I have written this code in a BADI.I dont know whether my form's display type is activex or native? I am not getting any values in the drop down list.can anybody please tell me what might be missing and how should i know whether my form is ActiveX or Native?
My form is called from portal so i have used BADI to connect portal to form

Hi sarang,
I have done a dynamic drop down list in which DESCR field comes from database table and pops into the drop down dynamically. I was working for a PCR scenario so the adobe form was called from portal.I will tell u all the required steps.It might work for u as it is working for me:
1.In the form:
I used two elements from library first is a "ENUMERATED DROP DOWN LIST NO SELECT" from web-dynpro native tab and second is "ISR_TEXT DISPLAY INVISIBLE ON EDIT MODE" from ISR controls tab.Place them one on other inthe form.
For drop down list the setting are:
     In object, field tab click on list items there in ITEMS put :$record.sap-vhlist.DESCR\.DATA\.FIELD.item[*].in ITEMS TEXT write text in ITEMS KEY write key.
     In binding,in default binding put $record.DESCR.DATA[*].FIELD.
For text element the settings are:
     In binding,default binding put Normal.
     when we select ISR_TEXT DISPLAY INVISIBLE ON EDIT MODE it automatically comes with calculated read only int he value tab.so open script editor and place the below code:
$record.DESCR.DATA.FIELD (in calculate).
2.Now the code in BADI is as follows:
In BADI we have to write the code for drop down list in the METHOD "SCENARIO_SET_ADDITIONAL_VALUES"
As i didnt change the standard BADI i added an enhancement spot in which i wrote a function module which fills ADDITIONAL_DATA. and the below code fills the ADDITIONAL_DATA .
DATA: t_t572b TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t572b WITH HEADER LINE,
        t_t554t TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t554t WITH HEADER LINE.
SELECT * FROM t572b INTO TABLE t_t572b WHERE sprsl EQ 'E'.
CLEAR ls_additional_data-fieldindex.
LOOP AT t_t572b.
    ADD 1 TO ls_additional_data-fieldindex.
    ls_additional_data-fieldname ='DESCR_KEY'.
    ls_additional_data-fieldvalue = t_t572b-descd.
    APPEND ls_additional_data TO additional_data.
    ls_additional_data-fieldname ='DESCR_LABEL'.
    ls_additional_data-fieldvalue = t_t572b-descr.
    APPEND ls_additional_data TO additional_data.
    CLEAR t_t572b.
ENDLOOP.
For DESCR field the we have to declare DESCR_KEY and DESCR_LABEL in the place holders for key values and palce holders for default values in characteristics tab(where all the fields for the form are defined) of ur respective scenario.(where ur pcr scenario is defined)
Hope ur problem got resolved.
Please let me know if any doubts.
If ur form is not called from portal and u want a dynamic drop down list the difference is put a data drop down list and in object, field tab click on list items there in ITEMS select the field into which u populated the data from the database table (this code shud be written in code Initialization in the respective interface) and in ITEMS TEXT put $ in ITEMS KEY put $.and in binding as we normally do bind it to the respective field in which the data is populated from database table.
It should work.

Drop down list in ADOBE Forms - WDP for ABAP...urgent

Hi Gurus,
Can you please explain me how to display values in the dropdown list of Adobe interactive form in WDP for ABAP. Also expalin me how to accept them in the program once the user selects the value from the list. The requirement is I have to call the RFC, get the data and display in the dropdown list at the time of initialization.

hi,
to populate the dropdown list you can do it...
1). manually or
2). by code(i work in java... there must be some ABAP equivalent...)
1). <b>manually</b> go to interactive form->edit
     go to Object tab->field tab ->
     you must see something like
     List Items :
     Text     + x
     click on the green + sign...
     it promps you to type. type in the value press enter... and so on...
2) <b>by Code...</b>
    //set up contents of a drop down list dynamically...
    IWDAttributeInfo countryInfo = wdContext.nodeTravelData().getNodeInfo().
            getAttributeInfo().getAttribute("DestinationCountry");
    ISimpleTypeModifiable countryType =
            countryInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
    IModifiableSimpleValueSet countryValueSet =
            countryType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
    countryValueSet.put("1","Germany");
    countryValueSet.put("2","UK");
This will work....

Problem with Enumerated drop-down values in Adobe Forms (WD java)

Hi All,
have a scenario where, I have to fill in a dropdown dynamically when I click a button. I get the values from a function module. I have done this using Isimpletypemodifiablestep. It worked.I have the form too. But when I try to re-implement the same its working only if I give the values during initialisation .
Why is this inconsistent?
Can we modify Simple types only during initialization? I have tried to add the values to the drop-down in controller and map the attribute to view. Even that didn't work.

Hi Arafat,
I have tried that already. It didn't work. As of now, I've copied the form thats working into the new project.
But I didn't find a solution for the problem.

Drop Downs in ISR Adobe forms

Hi,
Pease respond to my qns regarding drop-downs.
1. Is it not possible to provide a blank value in the drop list at index 1.
when i tried to provide in the ADD_values method, due to the standard scripting for drop down, it gets removed. I tried changing the loop index in the standard script for the drop down. but it dumps.
kindly help me on it..
2. Is it posible to have column headers in the drop down.
i divide it into columns by providing space/hyphens in the additional values for the respective field.
3. Can we have some options which will provide search helps that looks anything like the one in R/3. i feel it is highly required when we have to select some values which are depended on a set of values. (so that the user can select the right one judiciously )
Any pointers or alternative suggestions are highly appreciated.
Rgds,
Anto.

Hi Anto,
What release and support pack are you on for your ECC system? This is critical to what you can do. See SAP notes 741821 and 852235 and 952693 for release limitations.
Also please make sure you have the ISR Controls library - see SAP Note 947633 and 741381 - this give you a bunch of custom objects that you can add to your form including drop downs with and without preselected values.
It is possible to build something like a value help by using your own user commands - which you respond to in the QISR1 BADI implementation - and some additional characteristics to hold search criteria. The ISR controls will give you the script for the buttons.
Scenario is something like this:
1. Search criteria fields are initially hidden.
2. Button (custom user command) to "open up search criteria"
