Button Shape in forms

Hi,
I need to change the shape of button from rectangular to a 'C' groove/style in the edges/ends in forms 9i (similar to apps). Please let me know what property needs to be set.
Thanks

Hello,
This technique is used in the "Rollover Button" sample dialog in the Forms 10gr2 demos that you can download from OTN.
The tips is to set the Button's Implementation Class to oracle.forms.demos.enhancedItems.RolloverButton, then use the rounds brackets in the button label to enforce the round corner button - see the Rollover Button demo

ComboBox that has a Button shape !!!

HI, In the SAP Business One System forms for example in "Sales Quotation" form we can see (in the Right-Bottom corner) a <u>SAPbouiCOM.ComboBox</u> "CopyTo" that <u>has a SAPbouiCOM.Button shape</u> so can anyone tell me how to create such a ComboBox using the UI-API .
Thanks

Hi Roupen,
That copyFrom Button is not a List Button. When we click the CopyTo Button combobox will be dropped. This is not special one. In Background its normal Button and ComboBox. When you click the Button, that ComboBox is dropped by the programming.
Hope its helpfull for you.

Button shape property.

hai guys
I am using 10g forms. The normal button shape is look like rectangle shape. I want to change it as onside rounded(ie. like apps) shape.
If any one know that please reply.
thanks

You need to use a PJC for that. There's one available in the Forms 10g Demo, you can use that one, and it's relatively easy o configure.

Number of rows created are equivalent to number of times button is clicked.
Also in some cases i have to preload the rows with the existing data.

Button Text on Form not Displaying

The following was posted by PGMR1998 at 09:58am on Feb 22, 2008 (Pacific) but got no response:
I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 8, and I have added a button to reset the form fields. The button has some text on top, but the text on the button does not display until I click down on the button in the preview pane. How can I make the button text visible always? Thanks in advance for your support..
I'm having the same problem with the submit button on a form in Acrobat 9 Pro Extended. No matter what I do, the button text does not display. Any ideas?

What font are you using? What is the font color set to? What font size? Can you post a sample somewhere?
You specify the label text for a button using the Options tab of the Button Properties dialog. Describe each of the settings on this page. In particular, you can have a different label for the Up, Down, and Rollover states.

How do I create a submit button for my form? I would like it to send the completed PDF to an email address

Hi everyone,
I recently upgraded to Adobe XI and I can't find a "submit by email" button for my form. I created a button and tried to set up some actions but, I can only get the button to direct the user to a URL. How do I make it send the completed PDF to our designated company email address? I'm not too familiar with JAVASCRIPTS so I haven't tried that plus I heard it may not work with users with adobe reader.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for the input. I think you might have a different version of LiveCycle than the copy I have since it looks a little different. However, I found the answer in Adobe help. I had to type "mailto:" before the email address to indicate it's an email and not a URL. See below.
To collect form data as attachments to email, type mailto: followed by the email address. For example, mailto:[email protected]

Oracle Apps Sys Admin -- Disabling a button on a form

Hi Guys,
I want to disable a button on a form in oracle applications. Normally, i disable a button by goin to that MENU, SUBMENU(if there are any) and take the button's sub-function and add it in FUNCTION and MENU Exclusions in the reponsibility define form.
But in some forms in Oracle Inventory, i have a NEW button and am not able to find a sub-function for that. NEW and OPEN , two buttons are there . How can i disable or make that button vanish from that form. I know that it can be done thru CUSTOM.pll but without custom.pll , is there a way using this sub-functions or watever.
help appreciated.
Thanks

Yes I know about form personalization, however I still couldn't hide 2 buttons. Open vision database, under purchasing superuser > requisition summary, if you click the Find button it will open Requisition Header Summary window. In that window there are New and Open button. Now, I couldn't hide those 2 buttons cause I couldn't found the name in Item. What's the name of those 2 buttons? Thanks.

Trying to makea report run when clicking a button on a form

I am trying to run a report by clicking a button on a form (Forms 9i)
I have modified the registry settings for FORMS90_PATH and REPORTS_PATH to include my development directory, and now at last the report is generating. However the command to display the form in a window is not doing anything at all - no error even. Can someone please help, the trigger code for my button is displayed below:
DECLARE
     rep_result VARCHAR2(30);
BEGIN
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY('INVENTORY_REPORT', REPORT_FILENAME, :GLOBAL.project_path || 'Inventory.rdf');
     SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY('INVENTORY_REPORT', REPORT_DESNAME, :GLOBAL.project_path || 'Inventory.htm');
     rep_result := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT('INVENTORY_REPORT');
     --MESSAGE('Rep result: ' || rep_result);
     WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('file:///' || :GLOBAL.project_path || 'Inventory.htm', '_blank');
     --WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('file:///C:\Temp\Dev\Inventory.htm', '_blank');
END;
thx
adam

Hi,
may be this could be helpful for you:
You have to include the following code to execute a report:
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status Varchar2(20);
BEGIN
repid := find_report_object(report_name);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,BATCH);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'pdf');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,report_server_name);
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED') LOOP
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
END LOOP;
if rep_status = 'FINISHED' then
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=repserver90','_blank');
else
error report not exists
end if;
END;
Also you have to create the report server with the command:
"rwserver - install service_name autostart=yes
report server name must be the same that appears in the code above
You must add the report to run in the REPORT object type in your .fmb and put there with the same name
The report server to install ought to be the one and only in you network to avoid mistakes...

Making a "Save As" button on a form

I need to make a "Save As" button on a form created in Designer 8.0.
This will go on a form that will be enabled for Reader 8.0, so user can fill in form, save filled form, and submit via e-mail.
I have tried to figure how to add a regular Button, and add a simple menu functionality like "Save As" but cannot.
I need step-by-step instructions for this, please... and I do not know much about scripting at all.
TIA,
Glenn Cauley

Have a look in the Help (index Script Editor => about). This should give you more insight into how the Script Editor is used.
For this example, you'd just need to select your button, make sure the 'click' event is in the 'Show' drop-down, select 'JavaScript' from the 'Language' drop-down and then paste the script into the script editing field.
Thanks,
Mike

Very Urgent! Print Report output to local printer on button click in form

In Sales Order Form there is a print receipt button. In current situation On Clicking the 'Print Receipt Button' it submits a XML Publisher report(PDF output) to the concurrent manager. Currently to print that report i need to go view--> requests--> view output and then print. According to my new Requirement i need to print that report directly to local printer on one simple Print receipt button click in form.
I am trying to call the printers on server using custom.pll. The report is running successfully but it is not printing output to the local printer. I need to print the report to the local printers based on responsibility. Local printers are available on apps server. Can anyone help me on this issue ASAP.
Is it possible to print the document using custom.pll? Is there any other alternative to print the report on simple button click in form.
Environment: Apps 11.5.10.2, Forms 6i
Here is the code that i am using in my custom.pll.
if (v_form_name = 'OEXOETEL' --and v_block_name = 'LINES_SUMMARY'
     and name_in('parameter.ACTIONS') = 'PAYMENT_RECEIPT' )THEN
l_organization_id := Name_In('PARAMETER.OE_ORGANIZATION_ID');
l_order_header_id := Name_In('ORDER.header_id');
select to_number(oe_sys_parameters.value ('SET_OF_BOOKS_ID')) into l_sob_id from dual;
xml_layout := FND_REQUEST.ADD_LAYOUT('XXAFP','XXAFPOEXPMTRCRTF','en','US','PDF');
select a.profile_option_value
into v_printer_name
from fnd_profile_option_values a
, fnd_profile_options b
, fnd_profile_options_tl c
, fnd_user fu
where a.profile_option_id = b.profile_option_id
and c.profile_option_name = b.profile_option_name
and fu.user_id (+) = a.level_value
and c.language = 'US'
and c.user_profile_option_name='Printer'
and a.level_id = 10003 ;
if (FND_SUBMIT.SET_PRINT_OPTIONS(v_printer_name, 'Portrait', 2, TRUE, 'N'))
     then
l_new_request_id := FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST('XXAFP','XXAFPOEXPMTRC',
null,null,FALSE,l_sob_id,l_organization_id,NULL,NULL,l_order_header_id,
chr(0), '', '', '', '', '', '', '', '', '', '',
end if;
fnd_message.set_string('Request Submitted for Custom Payment Receipt. Request ID is '||l_new_request_id);
fnd_message.show;
copy('NULL','parameter.ACTIONS');
IF (l_new_request_id = 0) THEN
FND_MESSAGE.RETRIEVE;
FND_MESSAGE.ERROR;
else
l_commit_result := APP_FORM.QuietCommit;
END IF;
I need to complete this requirement immediately. Can anyone suggest me better ways in doing this.
Thanks,
Srinivas

I solved this problem myself using shell script through custom.pll. I wrote shellscript and called that shellscript through FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST.It printed 2 copies to local printer.

How do i add a submit button to a form

ho do i add a submit button to a form.

Hi;
If you are using the FormsCenral website to create a form it will have a submit button by default for the HTML (web) form and also by default it you are saving as PDF (there is an option to create a PDF without Submit, but by default it does submit to FormsCentral).
If you are using the FormsCentral desktop application that is bundled with Acrobat XI you would have to sign into the service to create forms with Submit buttons. You can also create a form without submit button in FormsCentral Desktop and then edit the form in Acrobat XI adding a submit button using your preferred submit method such as by email.
Let me know if you need more information on either of these, it will be easier to assist knowing more about what you are using.
Thanks,
Josh
PS - if this is a question about adding a submit button in Acrobat not related to FormsCentral your question would be best asked in http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat

Add button to PDF Form to save file to specific location

I have a simple form that is completed daily by various supervisors. I have successfully added a button to the form to email the form which then sends the form to an email group. Now, I'm trying to add a second button to save the form to a network location. I'm looking for this to be a one-click type situation, where the button then saves the form to the specified folder on the network.
Lets call our form "Form.pdf". I'd like the filename to be "Form - date - time.pdf" where date and time are fields on the form that are completed by the user. The location will always remain the same and will be a UNC path ie \\server\share\filename
All users are using Acrobat X standard when completing the forms, will be connected to the network and will have permissions to write to the file share.
This seems like it sohould be easy, but I cant figure out how to do it in Acrobat.
Thanks in advance for any help.

It's only possible if you can install a script on the local machine of each
user. For more info, see this tutorial:
