Delete an alphabet in a text field

I have a text field "house". I need to create a button to delete one of the alphabets in this text, for example e of "house".
Your help to create an action script on the button, please.

The following will do what you want:
btn.onRelease=function(){
my_txt.text = my_txt.text.slice(0, my_txt.text.length-1);
You should look thru the String class to see the variety of methods available to you for manipulating text.

Hidden/Visible text fields in saved PDF

I got some very helpful advice yesterday about deleting content from hidden boxes (text fields). I have another related problem that somebody might have an answer for. I have text fields that are hidden or visible depending on selections made in drop-down lists. This is working fine but I've noticed something strange. When a user completes the form, saves it, closes it, and re-opens it--all of the text boxes are visible. Has anyone run across this? If so--is there some script I can add to fix this?
//Clear out the StaticLocation DropDown list
StaticLocation.rawValue = "";
StaticLocation.clearItems();
switch (this.rawValue)
     case "Top Center ":
          StaticLocation.addItem("Lower Right");
          StaticLocation.addItem("None");
          break;
     case "Lower Right":
          StaticLocation.addItem("Top Center ");

You are not saving the state of the form. You can do this programmatically but there is a facility in Designer that will do it for you. If you open the Form Properties under the File menu then click the Defaults tab, you will see a section called Scripting. In that section make sure that the "Preserve Scripting changes to for when saved" radio button is set to Automatically.

Print just what is typed in the text field without printing the text fields

Hello,
I'm trying to print a form after I filled in the text fields, but would like it to print just what I typed in the field, not the text field and the color in the text field. I use CS3.
Any help would be appreciated!

Hello Teddy and wellcome to the group!
If you want to change fonts or other things then you might need to use the PrePrint method. What I normally do is select PrePrint from the "Show" section in the Script Editor (If you do not have it go to the toolbar at the top, Windows, and select Script Editor). After you select PrePrint you can now either type the name of the subform and field you want to change (or you can put your cursor in the Scripting Dialog box, hold CTRL and then select the field with your mouse) and then type in the JS to change the font. it is something like TextField1.fillcolor = "255, 255, 255"; (that changes the background fill to white). You can also replace fillcolor with font or border to change the color of the font or the border. I put a link to an Adobe website that goes over JS color changes below. You just need to add a PrePrint method for each field that you wish to remove the necessary highlighting on. Then once the user either hits a Print button that you have on the form or uses CTRL+P to print the form it will remove any highlighting.
Now On the Text Field not printing itself that I am not sure what you are asking for. Are you asking for the caption not to print or for there not to be a box around the data that is entered? If you do not want to have a box surround the text field that is in the Object section of the field (see image below). You just need to select None if you just want the text. If you want to change that with JS I put another link below that has the code to change the border color to white and the user cannot see it. If you do not want the caption to print the only method is to delete the caption from the text field and replace it with static text that can be hidden, but I am assuming that is not what you are talking about (correct me if I am wrong though).

ICal deletes dates typed in the Notes field... help!

I have the new Lion iCal and I want to type dates into the Notes field and type in the Dates of the event so that I can see the specific dates quickly... iCal auto creates the event for the duration of the dates, but deletes the numbers I've typed. Help.
It seems that there would be a way to remove this preference.
I travel a lot and sync via the iCloud with my phone and really need the ability to glance at an event and know the duration of day's I'll be in a city/town.
I used to be able to type these and have them remain.
Now the system is "overly helpful" by creating an event for the duration I type in, but it removes the dates I type in the field and won't let me retype them in...
Any suggestions?
Is there a preference/view that I can switch off???
All help greatly appreciated.

Text Field Alphabet Soup crashes Safari 3.0.4 - How to fix?

Like many others, I have installed the 10.4.11 bundle update and am having problems with Safari. My problems occur when I try to type anything into a text field. If I type something that starts with the same characters I have used before, the field fills in automatically and backspacing makes a mess of it. If I use the spacebar, the page scrolls down. If I backspace, the text I type sometimes appears in reverse order. Other garbling of typed text occurs that I cannot fully describe, but in all cases Safari grinds to a halt. I have reinstalled Safari with Pacifist. I have scoured my hard drive for Input Managers and found none. I have deleted Cookies.plist. None of these fixes has worked for me. Anybody have ideas for a fix? Here is a recent crash report:

Text fields cannot be deleted in field group in Query

Hi Experts,
I created an additional table ZTEST for node A in InfoSet and chose some fields which have text fields into Field Group for display.
Then in SQ01, those selected fields appeared in my Query field selection. Of course I can tick it to display or not tick it.
But when I don't need those fields, I go to SQ02 to delete addional table ZTEST in extras in InfoSet and generate it. I go to SQ01 to check whether those fields disappear or not. However, some of them are still there. e.g.
Checkbox: Text: ZTEST-TA_TYPE
Checkbox: Text: ZTEST-TA_STATUS
Since there is no such a table in Infoset, I have no other clue to delete remaining text fields. Do you have idea?
Regards,
Ying

Hello Ying,
After you made your change to the infoset, you need to completely exit out of SQ01 before running query again. Call SQ01 like it is the first time you are calling it for a logon.
Kind Regards,
Rae Ellen Woytowiez

Additional text field in Infoset deleted but not reflected in field selection in Query

Hi,
I have deleted an additional text field in infoset. It was used in one query.
Even in the query it is deleted, but when in field selection screen i am not able to delete.
If i try to execute the query, I get dump (syntax error) saying in field type(additional field) doesnot exist.
Can anyone pleassseee help me in this.

Hi San,
I am trying to understand. How could you separately delete an additional text field associated with a main field?

Safari 3.0.4 (523.12) weird text field & delete button behavior

Just installed the software update (10.4.11), and now have a weird problem with Safari 3.0.4 (523.12).
When entering text into a text field _on a web page_ (i.e. NOT the address bar or the built-in Google search field), the screen scrolls when the space bar is pressed (oddly, a space IS entered into the text field).
Also, once a few pages have been visited, hitting the delete key makes the browser act as if the "back" button had been pressed!
What gives?
I tried disabling plug-ins (and restarting Safari) in case one of them was causing a conflict, but it didn't help. I also repaired permissions with Disk Utility. For clarity, I hadn't tried rebooting before launching Safari.
Is it possible to revert back to a previous version?

Hi,
Some other things to try:
- delete the Safari prefs file at /Users/YourUsername/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
- try resetting Safari via the Safari menu
- a test you can do to help narrow down things is to try Safari in another user account. This will help us to know whether your problem is local to your account or system wide.

I am creating a request for proposal form and I need to add a commission structure field. I created a table using the ranking field and now I need to delete the "dots/buttons" and turn them into text fields, is this possible?

It sounds like what you are trying to do is edit the choices in a likert field to something other than the default radio button. This is not something that you can do in Formscentral at this time.

Deleting a Text field...In need of help!

Hi there,
I have a text field that loads HTML inside a movie clip, and
I CAN remove all text with the following code, but not the
textfield itself. No clickable buttons will work in that space
after the text field has once been loaded there. Even when I
manually remove the movie clip from the screen itself. Any
suggestions?
This is the code I'm using:
homeButton.onRelease = function() {
tArticle.removeTextField();
gotoAndPlay(3);
};

Hi, thanks for your reply, but I'm not sure I'm following
you. Are you saying that the text is not being removed? Because I
don't see it on the screen anymore.
And I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "if it's at a
removable depth" how would I know if it is?
Thank you.

Check for text in a text field and make checkbox mandatory

I have a text field where if the user has entered a value, then the checkbox that follows must be mandatory. I have this script that works (sort of), but I'm not sure which event to use to get the results I want. I want the message and the checkbox to be mandatory only if something is typed in the field.
Here's the script:
if ((this.rawValue != "null") || (this.rawValue != ""))
     CheckBox3.mandatory = "error";
     app.alert("Please indicate that you have reviewed the similar profile and approve it");
else if ((this.rawValue == "null") || (this.rawValue == ""))
     CheckBox3.mandatory = "disabled";
Thanks,
MDawn

That worked. Thank you. I have another problem now. If the user deletes the information typed in the text field, the message box still displays and the checkbox is still outlined in red indicating it's required and it shouldn't be.
Thanks,
MDawn

Permanently save line spacing in a multi-line text field

Me: Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, Windows Vista
(I think the people who will be using the form have Reader 7 on Windows)
I work in a doctors' clinic, and we use phone message sheets to document conversations between the patients/us/nurses/doctors, and I scanned the form and made it into a fillable PDF for our secretaries to fill out more quickly. The "message" area has pre-printed lines on it, and the multi-line text field I placed there needs to match up to the lines. I used the Rich Text Formatting options to set it to "Exactly 24 Points," but I can't get it to KEEP the formatting permanently. The only way I could get it to save the formatting in that field was to put a space in it and then save it, and then give that to the 2 phone secretaries. It works perfectly the first time, but instead of just closing/re-opening the file to start a new message, one of the secretaries highlights everything in the "message" field and deletes it... which deletes the line spacing formatting. I've told her
b numerous
times to leave that starting space in the field, but she "forgets" so all of her messages look messed up. So is there a way to force that line spacing
b PERMANENTLY
???? Here's a shrunken screenshot of the field -- I wish I could just erase the lines altogether so the spacing wouldn't matter, but the secretaries type/print the message out, then the nurses/docs write on the page with pen so the lines have to stay. http://img187.imageshack.us/my.php?image=notepreviewph8.jpg
Thanks!

You can set the font size of the text. Then play with the underlines in the original document to match the needs of the font that is used. Print to a new PDF and then use replace pages to put the new page into the form without changing the form fields. I was able to do this with a word processing document by adding underlining in the document with 12 pt and setting the font to 12 pt in the text field. You can play with the font, the border of the field, and the underlining in the original document to get the desired result. Is this optimal, probably not. However it does the job.

How to create a pdf/a-1b with a text field

hello, I'm trying to execute a very simple task: create a pdf/a-1b containig a text field.
using Acrobat XI pro, I created a simple pdf form with 1 form field of type text , then tried to save as pdf/A-1b. The pdf is saved but the form field is removed from resulting pdf.
Here in detail the steps I made:
0) configure adobe pdf printer to save as pdf/A-1b
1) creat a test.txt with notepad
2) print using acrobat pdf printer
3) open the generated pdf with Acrobat XI
4) in 'Standards' panel I see that pdf conform
5) now go to 'Tools\Modules' and 'Modify'
6) add a textbox field
7) exit from 'Modify' mode and save
8) in 'Standards' panel I see that pdf doesn't conform.
9) I opened the preflight tool and see two errors
     a) "XMP property for a page object not predefined and no extension schema present".
     page reports the following Trigger values:
     - Extension schema is present in XMP: is not true
     - Property exists in PDF/A Standard: is not true
     b) Form field does not have an appearance dictionary
     page reports the following Trigger values:
     - Form field has an appearance dictionary: is not true
I'm quite new to Acrobat: simply downloaded the Actobat XI evaluation version, created the file and added the text field. No special settings nor other configurations was applied,
I'm wondering if someone else was able to reproduce this behavior.
thank you for any comment

First, about invalidating the PDF/A. I was told, but never had this confirmed nor tested, that editing a PDF/A will automatically cause the PDF/A status to be deleted from the file. This is because Acrobat does not know about the compatibility of every edit with every current (and future) PDF subset standard, so it is safest just to remove the indicator - if you turn off Adobe's PDF/A view mode which will prevent editing anyway.
Now, you have a problem with the signatures. Possibly a very big one. Your description "2) fill the text field with some annotations and then sign the signature field 3) save the pdf" is a little too separated. At the time a file is signed it is saved, the hash calculated, and written to the file. So signing and saving are just one action. Yet an unsigned digital signature needs, it seems to me, no appearance.
I think the solution is a simple one. Sign it, but not with a signature field. If it is PDF/A when you start it is probably PDF/A when you finish. Signature fields seem a distraction and obstacle to the important thing, signing.

Address Book - Weird text field behaviour

In Address Book when I try to edit any text field weird things happen.
When I start typing all the previous characters are repeated with each keystroke - for example typing "Thomas" would become TThThoThomThomaThomas". Pressing the backspace, delete or the ESC key repeats only the keystrokes made, i.e. "Thomas" would be added to the end of "TThThoThomThomaThomas".
If I click into another field and start typing it still remembers all the previous keystrokes and puts all of them in front of the key I just pressed.
Additionally, nothing can be typed in the notes field.
I've tried deleting:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist
but that doesn't fix it.
Anything in ~/Library/Application Support/Address Book be the problem?
When I log in a a guest user this behaviour is not present.

It's good that you tried this on a different account. That suggests that the problem exists somewhere in your user account directory. I don't think anything in ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ would cause this. Do you have any input managers installed? These might be in ~/Library/Input Managers/ or something like that. I've never installed one myself, so I am not certain where they are. I think if you find one, you can just remove it from that folder by dragging it out, and then restarting Address Book might solve the issue.

How can I validate numeric values in a text field?

Hi
Once more I have a problem.
I have a field in which the user should enter 10 digits in the pattern 999999-9999. The field must only contain numeric data and must be exactly 10 characters. I have a validation script on the print button, that prevent printing if required fields are empty or not properly filled out.
I have tried two ways to work this out, and I'm not satisfied with any of them, as I can still print despite of validation scripts and warning messages.
1.
I set the field to numeric, limited to 11 characters.
Display pattern num{999999-9999}, edit pattern num{999999-9999} and validation pattern num{999999-9999}
Problems using this solution: When I type 11 digits in the field (ex.12345612345) I get a warning message and 12.345.612.
But when I type 9 digts (ex. 123456-123 or 123456123) I get no warning message and 000000-0000 or 012345-6123
If I type alphabetical characters (ex. 123456-abcd) I get no warning message and 000000-0000.
2.
I set the field to text field, limited to 11 characters.
Display pattern text{999999-9999}, edit pattern text{999999-9999} and validation pattern text{999999-9999}
Now when I type 11 digits in the field (ex.12345612345) I get no warning message and 12345612345.
When I type 9 digts (ex. 123456-123) I get no warning message and 123456-123
When I type 9 digts (ex. 123456123) I get a warning message and 123456123
If I type alphabetical characters (ex. 123456-abcd) I get a warning message and 123456-abcd.
It works slightly better as a text field, but I am not satisfied at all.
Has anyone a solution to this?
Additional I would also like the hyphen to emerge automatically when typing.

I just want to summarize my experience.
I found a related discussion here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2513720#2513720.
Putting the pieces together I came up with this solution.
form1.subform.TextField1::exit - (JavaScript, client)
var
myRegex = /\d{6}\-\d{4}/;
var
singleDigits = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]; // array for single digit check
if
(this.rawValue != null || this.rawValue != ''){ // only if the field has a value...
     if (!this.rawValue.match(myRegex)){ // and it doesnt match the pattern (i.e. 2 digits)
     this.rawValue
= ''; // clear the field
     xfa.host.setFocus(
this); // set focus back to the field
     xfa.host.messageBox('Error: Pattern Conflict. Please use the pattern 999999-9999.');
// enter any message you wish here
