Change a drop down list from read only/invisable on a radiobutton value

Hi All i am new to all this and need a few pointers?
I have a form which was made using Livecycle Designer 8.
On this form are a set of radio buttons (yes/no/NA).
Is there a way to change the state of a drop down list from read only or invisible and display a message after 'no' has been selected on a set of radio buttons?
Thanks in advance.

No being in a table shoudl not affect it.....but you will more than likely have to include the path to the object. Without seeing your form it is impossible to tell you what it should be. You can place your cursor in the script editor where you want the reference to the DDList. Then hold down the Ctrl key and move your mouse to point to the field you want to reference. When the cursor hits the canvas it will change to a V. When you get to the field you want click the mouse button and the expression that you need will be placed in the script editor. This is path relative to where the context in which the script will be run. Now you can simply add the "." and whatever method/property that you want to reference.
Hope that helps
Paul

Hello,
I am trying to use the data drop-down list from the custom library. I enter the name of my data connection and the other 2 variables in quotes when they are initialized, just like the example says to, but it still doesn't work. Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks,

I am having trouble (sleepless nights) with populating a drop-down list from an Access Database. The result is: I only get the first record from the data connection. So the connection works but I cannot go through the other records. Maybe there is an other way to do this.
I am trying to selectively fill a form with data from an MS-access database.
I hope someone can help me.

If you email the access DB and the form to [email protected], I will try to take a look at it for you.

How to change the drop down list "Category" in the Risk page (PWA 2013)

Hello,
How to change the drop down list "Category" in the Risk page of a Project Site. I need to change the list of elements.
Thanks

Hi Robert,
You actually cannot edit the current template.
The process is as follow:
create a brand new project site from the existing template,
edit the site configuration (list, column, webparts, image, logo, theme...),
save it as a template,
associate it to an EPT.
See reference below:

Populate drop-down list from multiple text fields.

Just to begin, I am brand new to this application and brand new to coding in general. Anyways, this is what I am trying to accomplish. I need to populate a drop-down list from multiple text fields. I am able to populate one item using this in the calculate event:
TextField1.rawValue
After I type text in TextField1 and hit enter, it displays the text in the drop-down list. I need to do this but with more than just one text field to populate more options for the drop-down list. I will also need to do something similar with populating a drop-down list from selections made in multiple other drop-down lists.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Thank you for your suggestion Geo Kaiser. With that, I was able to populate my drop-down lists, but now when I select an option from the drop-down list, the selection dissapears. The selection will appear briefly in the box but then dissapears although my drop-down list options remain there. Here is the code I am using for my text field to drop-down list:
DropDownList1.clearItems()
DropDownList1.addItem(TextField1)
DropDownList1.addItem(TextField2)
And here is my code for my drop-down list to populate another drop-down list:
DropDownList3.clearItems()
DropDownList3.addItem(DropDownList1)
DropDownList3.additem(DropDownList2)
Thanks again for your help. By the way, I am using Adobe Designer 7.0.

Related Issue column in tracking list gets changed into drop down list in Infopath

Hi All,
i have created Tracking list in sharepoint 2010. which has column[Related issue - lookup for field in list[title] by default.
this field will have a multiple selection check box,2 buttons [Add and remove] and text box[which show the items selected in check box].
my issue is ,when i try to modify my list in Infopath. this column[Related issue] gets changed into drop down list item.Is is possible to get the same [old format] back. if so pls guide me..
I faced the same in Radio button,but i restored it by changing it into option button in Infopath
V Jean

Hi ,
The
multiple-selection list box control should be by design in InfoPath form, which is corresponding to the SharePoint "Related Issues" field, in my opinion, it cannot be converted to [old format] in InfoPath form, you may need to use SharePoint Designer 2010
to customize your Issue Tracking list NewForm.aspx/EditForm.aspx per the way in the following article, then "Related Issues" field will still be the old format,

How do I populate a drop-down list from a schema variable

I'm a novice programmer and new to the LiveCycle environment. I need help to populate a drop-down list in LiveCycle from a hard coded variable within my form's schema. I have a list of 28 names (the number of names and actual names change annually). That list is used over 30 times within a form for different selections. Since the list rarely changes, I would prefer to hard code it and make changes to the schema when they occur.
If I can't find a solution, I will be updating over 30 separate drop-down list objects each time there is a change to the list.
Thanks in advance for any help
Chris

Can you post your schema to [email protected] and I will have a look. You will also need to indicate which node in the schema is supposed to populate the dropdown.

BUG: Sorting drop-down lists from the field tab when using "specify item values"

Hi all,
I've finished creating my form now, but I came across this whilst writing up my documentation for maintenance tasks.
This occurs when adding new values to a drop-down list that has the "Specify item values" checkbox in the binding tab checked.
When I then try to sort my list using the built in sort buttons, it will sort the items, but the list of specified values in the binding tab does not sort reorder to stay with the original items in the list. This is hapenning when I sort from the Object > Field tab. If I sort in the Object > Binding tab then the sort will include the specified values.
For example:
A    5
C    2
D    9
Add a new value to get:
A    5
C    2
D    9
B    10
Sort the list using the button:
A    5
B    2
C    9
D    10
But it should be:
A     5
B     10
C     2
D     9

I was able to duplicate this problem and it looks like a possible bug. I've submitted it to support.

Is that what you're looking for?

New installed printer not listed in drop down list of Reader 11

Hi, I have recently changed my printer, first uninstalling the old one, restarting the laptop and installing the new one. On trying to print an email PDF attachment, Reader 11 starts up but my new printer is not listed. The old one still is, even though it has been uninstalled (via Control Panel / programs). I have downloded a workaround but would prefer to continue using reader. I am using Windows 7. Other file types print with no problem. Any ideas please?

Please do not post the same question multiple times!

Get/Set values from a drop down list

I am trying to modify the http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/web/web-jpa-part2.html so that instead of entering the data from a text field (in update & add) the values come from a drop down list from a table. I have drop down lists that are populated bothe from the DB and hard coding. When I run, I am able to see the options on the DDs. But none of the CRUD work. I think this is because my set and get for the drop down is wrong. Then again, I also have a few text fields from the original example which also don't seem to work. Here is a piece of my addButton():
        RowKey[] selectedRowKeys = getTableRowGroup1().getSelectedRowKeys();
        PaymentDetails[] pv = getSessionBean1().getPaymentVoucher();
        int rowId = Integer.parseInt(selectedRowKeys[0].getRowId());
        PaymentDetails upPV = pv[rowId];
        bankCodeDD.getSelected();
        statusDD.getSelected(); // hard coded value
      upPV.setPrepBy((String) prepByField.getText());
      PaymentDetailsController pvController = new PaymentDetailsController();
        pvController.addPaymentDetails(upPV);
        addRequest = false;
        return null;How do I set and get the values from the drop down so than it passed to my bean? When I choose a row to be updated, make changes and click Update, I get this message on my Tomcat:
com.sun.webui.jsf.component.DropDown::The current value of component form1:deptCodeDD does not match any of the selections.
Did you forget to reset the value after changing the options?Can someone please point me to a place which shows how I can add a default value from my DD? I tried to follow http://www.netbeans.org/kb/55/dropdowncomp.html, but unable to complete because I get an error for Options api. The auto-fix imported import org.apache.jasper.Options; But the package given in the tutorial is com.sun.webui.jsf.model.Option. My Java version is 1.6.0_07.
private Options listOptions[];
...//getter setter goes here
listOptions = new Option[noofDBRows + 1];Many Thanks!

I don't guess what I may add.
The contents of the table named lookup appear on the screenshot.
cell A1 contains the string One-Piece, cell B1 contains the 'associated' value 160.
cell A2 contains the string Two-Piece, cell B2 contains the 'associated' value 130.
cell A3 contains the string Three-Quarter, cell B3 contains the 'associated' value 150.
Now table Main
In column B the cells contain a pop_up menu with four items like the ones described by Jerrold.
In column C of the cells contain the formula :
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B,Tableau 2 :: A:B,2,FALSE),"")
I enhanced it since yesterdays because I forgot to treat the case when cell is blank in column B.
I apologize but as I'm using my machine in French, the screenshot display the French formulas.
I repeat that you may find useful infos in the PDFs files which we may download from the menus:
Help > Numbers User Guide
Help > iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide
As you are in Stoke-on-Trent maybe your system is set to use the comma as decimal separator.
If it's that, you must replace the comma by semi-colons in the formulas (you may see them in my screenshot).

Using getElementById() to get values from drop down list

Hi, I am using Netbeans to write this program. I have this .java page that gets the url of the HtmlPage from the .properties page. And when this page is opened in the browser, there are drop down lists that have values I want to get from the user when he/she has selected, and save it to a database. I'm actually using mozilla firefox to open this page, and using firebug to inspect the drop down list element.
I know getElementById is a javascript code, however, my friend told me to use it in the .java page. This is how part of my code looks like. What I'm not sure is how to implement getElementById() and where.
HtmlPage pageMain =EBPage;
WebRequest postRequestSettings = new WebRequest(
new URL(getProperties("trustAdmin")), HttpMethod.POST);
*// Set the request parameters*
postRequestSettings.setRequestParameters(new ArrayList());
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("component", "edit"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("formids", "unixTime,instance,time,description,message"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("page", "Status"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("service", "direct"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("session", "T"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("submitmode", "submit"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("submitname", ""));
*// Insert instance of message here*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("instance", instance));
*// Insert content of message here*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("message", message));
*// Insert description of message here*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("description", description));
*// Insert time of message here*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("time", time));
*// Convert time to unix seconds*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("unixTime", String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000)));
HtmlPage newPage1 = pageMain.getWebClient().getPage(postRequestSettings);
WebRequest requestSettings = new WebRequest(
new URL("http://www.google.com"), HttpMethod.GET);
requestSettings.setRequestParameters(new ArrayList());
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("page", "Preview"));
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("service", "page"));
newPage1 = newPage1.getWebClient().getPage(requestSettings);
And I'm told to insert page.getElementById() in the place shown below:
HtmlPage page = null;
page.getElementById()_
*try {*
*// Login proxy*
page = (HtmlPage) jsonBrowser.getPage(getProperties("jsonBrowser"));
String proxyUrl = page.getForms().get(0).getAttribute("action");
System.out.println("Proxy Url" + proxyUrl);
WebRequest requestSettings = new WebRequest(
new URL(proxyUrl), HttpMethod.POST);
requestSettings.setRequestParameters(new ArrayList());
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("PROXY_SG_PASSWORD", password));
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("PROXY_SG_PRIVATE_CHALLENGE_STATE", ""));
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("PROXY_SG_REQUEST_ID", ""));
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("PROXY_SG_USERNAME", userID));
*// Get the page*
page = page.getWebClient().getPage(requestSettings);
Logger.getLogger(postTrustMessage.class.getName()).log(Level.INFO, "===================================Login in Trust");
Logger.getLogger(postTrustMessage.class.getName()).log(Level.INFO, page.getWebResponse().getContentAsString());
*} catch (IOException ex) {*
Logger.getLogger(postTrustMessage.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
*} catch (FailingHttpStatusCodeException ex) {*
Logger.getLogger(postTrustMessage.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
return page;
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

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.

Populate drop-down list in table row or repeating subform

I am currently working on an Adobe Interactive Form integrated with web dynpro ABAP. I would like to create a table or repeating subform with a number of drop-down lists populated from SAP.
I am using the Enumerated Drop-down list from the WebDynproNative menu. In my WDDOINIT method, I am populating the attributes using the set_attribute_value_set method. This is working fine when my dropdown is not in a table or repeating subform. The dropdown is populated and the selected value is returned to SAP when submitting the form. However, when I place the dropdown in a table row or a repeating subform, the dropdown is not populated.
Any ideas or suggestions?

Hi There,
I am facing problem in Dropdown lists in Subforms.
I want the region dropdown list values according to country (only for DE) dropdown list value. Both Dropdown lists are in a Subform.
For that, I have used this in EXIT event of Country Dropdown list:
if (this.rawValue == "DE Deutschland")
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.clearItems();
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Schleswig-Holstein","1");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Hamburg","2");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Niedersachsen","3);
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Bremen","4");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Nordrhein-Westfalen","5");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Hessen","6");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Rheinland-Pfalz","7");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Baden-Württemberg","8");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Bayern","9");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Saarland","10");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Berlin","11");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Brandenburg","12");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Mecklenburg-Vorpomme","13");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Sachsen","14");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Sachsen-Anhalt","15");
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.addItem("Thüringen","16");
else
data.Item.IT_ITEM.DATA.ZZ_REGION.clearItems();
It does only change first region dropdownlist value, not others because both dropdown lists are in a Subform.
Other problem is that it works only when All Country Dropdown lists are "DE". Means, first region dropdown list depends upon not only first country dropdown but also other dropdown.
My requirement is, If first country Dropdown is "DE", only first Region Dropdown list should be fill, not others. And so on.
Please provide solution that How can I change all dropdown lists of a Subform dynamically?
Waiting for reply.
Thank you
Chandler Bing
