Displaying text on a form

Hello,
I'm running into an issue where an incorrect text ID is displayed on our billing form. On our form we are displaying text ID ZCLN and we want to use ID 0002. How can we configure which texts display on a form?
edit: more specifically, we're trying to figure out how the text is read from the sales order to the billing form. The text isn't copied from the sales order to the billing document directly, but we display the text on the form. When we create the billing document we are getting an entry in table STXH, but it is for ZCLN text ID and we want to use 0002.
Thanks in advance,
Johnny

Hi,
Please note that you should use a function module instead of fetching texts from table.
For this:
Goto SE37 & enter "READ_TEXT" & execute
enter the details as under:
CLIENT xxx
ID 0002
LANGUAGE E
NAME document number with padded zero
OBJECT object in which ur texts goes (eg VBBP etc)
& execute, you will see your text.
Now ask your ABAPer to include this call function code in your print program logic, thats it.
Hope this helps you.

Display Hint Text in Oracle Forms 6i at Text Item

Dear all seniors
I want to show Hint text at Text Item in Oracle Forms 6i.
when my cursor Focus goes at that item. I mean when I go with Tab key or Enter button then it show display text.
even though my mouse is not on that item.
please how it would be possible
thanks.
G.Y

Please create a display_item(for eg. Disp_Mess) just below the text field (For eg:-MyField) where you want to show hint. And then assighn Hint text to "DISP_MESS" in NEW-FORM-INSTANCE or at Initial value. Then create a PRE-TEXT-ITEM and POST-TEXT-ITEM trigger for MyField.
-- PRE-TEXT-ITEM trigger write following code.
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('DISP_MESS',VISIBLE,PROPERTY_TRUE);
--POST-TEXT-ITEM write following code.
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('DISP_MESS',VISIBLE,PROPERTY_FALSE);
It will work for you.

The memo field in forms won't display text?

I am using Firefox 33.1.1 on a WindowsXP Pro system and have been using FireFox for quite some time . . .
Recently, I must have done something, I just don't know, but I can't seem to remedy the problem.
I create and use a lot of forms. Standard <form></form> HTML forms.
Whenever I pull up a form, I can no longer see any text as I type into the MEMO field. I also don't see any contents of the MEMO field when I recall a record fromn the database within the form.
This is happening ONLY with the MEMO field.
This very message I had to type in notepad and copy and paste it into this bug report form.( OMG - when I pasted this text into this form, I can see the text!! But still not in other forms)
YET, the text is indeed in the form. This text will display when recalling a record to the webpage and displaying the memo field contents on the page.(Not in form)
I have done all I can according to FireFox problem resolution suggestions including uninstalling and reinstalling a fresh pristeen copy of Firefox to a diff location on HD.
I do NOT have this problem when I go into Windows IE. I know there is no problem with the form itself or database contents. This happens on ANY memo field at ANY website, not just mine.
I cannot say if this began after an FF update or not. I feel it may be a simple fix. I may have hit a key or combination of keys that changed a setting causing this, but I dont know where.
Any clues would be helpful.
thanks
jim

Try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.
*about:config page: layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled = false
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
This can be a problem with the font that is used to display the text.
You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
*http://browserspy.dk/fonts-flash.php?detail=1
You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.

IOS pdf viewer cannot display text that was entered in acrobat forms???

hi.
i have a blank PDF form. i enter text into this form on my mac, i use the latest adobe acrobat or adobe reader to do this. i email this filled out form to a person. the person uses an iphone or ipad to view his mail. he is a novice user, no extra apps installed. the user opens the attached pdf (default ios pdf reader) and the form is displayed.
but – not a single word i entered into the form is displayed.
it seems that forms that are filled out with acrobat/reader can't be correctly displayed on an iphone/ipad? They show up blank!
I tested this with a few documents, same result.
any help?
Cheers!

The basic readers might not process field forms, just the basic context of the PDF.
It is best to add an app that can process Acrobat PDF forms, not just read them. I would look at PDF Expert since it appears to be the most compatible and runs custom JavaScripts in forms. Another option would be the Adobe Mobile PDF Reader.
Did you create the PDF form?
PDF forms can be created by Acrobat, AcroForms, or using LiveCycle, XML forms. The majority of iOS or android mobile devices cannot process XML forms.
Trying to read PDFs on mobile devices requires testing of the PDF to fix display issues and if you are using forms the JavaScript within forms needs to be tested for compatibility with various app readers to see if the form fields and code even work.

Dynamically create and remove TEXT items in forms

Hi Guys,
Is there a way to dynamically create and remove TEXT items in form. For example I have the EMP and DEPT table and when
I select the EMP table name from the LOV, rows of the EMP table with column name and data should get displayed on the screen and likewise a similar action for DEPT table and
so on. I have about 90 tables from where data could be required to view and edit. They all have varying number of columns.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks

Greatly appreciate your suggestions and solutions.

Standard text in Smart forms

Hi ,
           Im using the standard text in smart forms, but Im getting the output displayed as hexadecimal numbers. These are the hexa characters stored in the "SO10" transaction for the standard text name.
I try to display a signature stored in standard text.
But when used in SAP scripts I get the content displayed correctly.
Can someone help me to display the content in smart forms as such.
I searched the forum for the solution I got some results for the search but I did not get the solution for it.
Points will be rewarded for helpful answers...
Rgds,
Sarath.

Standard Text IN ADOBE Forms

Hi,
Can you tell me how to use standard text in ADOBE forms,
and how to fetch A Customs Tariff Number or an HTS (Harmonized Tariff System)
from other system.

Hi Oliver,
I believe you standard text is a table type of TDLINES.
On the form you would display it with a table of 1 column 1 row with repeat row ticked.
Have the like below code on the fomr ready event of your table.
for(var i =0; i<this.Row1.nodes.length;i++)
 if(i == 1){
 this.Row1.Cell1.font.fill.color.value = "255,0,0";
 this.Row1.xx.font.fill.color.value = "255,0,0";
Note: in my example I had a table with one row names Row1 and 2 fields cell1 type textbox, & xx as text / label.
If its like you have it in a text box with multiple entries, we need to spli the value such that 1st row is displayed in a text box whose parameters are by defeult set to font red, and rest of them to this text area.
If your procedure is table the code sud work, else let me know how you get data and how do you display it on the screen.
Cheers,
Sai

Standard text in smart form

Hi,
can anyone tell me how to include standard text in smart form
Thanks

Procedure
1. To create a text node, call the context menu for that node in the tree structure that shall
receive the text and choose Create Text.
2. Enter a unique name for the node and a node description (for example, letter).
3. On the General Attributes tab choose Include text as text type.
Since you edit a text element, an included text, or a text module exclusively via the
text node, the system stores only information on the selected type. When you
change the text type, the system therefore asks for your confirmation.
4. In the Text key box, identify the include text.
To identify individual text objects, use the search help in this field.
The search help of the Text name field allows you include the attributes of SAPscript
texts into the search.
7. If required, use the Paragraph formats box to format the include text:
The style assigned to the text node contains a format for the standard paragraph ('*'). If you enter a paragraph format in the Standard paragraph field, this format overwrites the style format for all standard paragraphs in the include text that use this paragraph format.
Use the First paragraph field to set a paragraph format for the first paragraph of the
include text. This format also overwrites the format set in the style. If you set the First
paragraph field but leave the Standard paragraph field empty, the system uses the
format set in the First paragraph field for any standard paragraphs in the include text.
6. In the Text node box choose whether you want the text to start in a new paragraph, in a new
line, or directly at the end of the current paragraph.
7. If desired, choose the Output Options tab to maintain the style or box and shading
of the text.
Result
The system displays the node in the tree structure, including its name and description. The
included text is included only at the moment the form is processed.
Regards

Can I color a line of "standard text" in adobe forms output?

Simple question: Can I color a line of "standard text" in adobe forms output?
My standard text (SO10) has multiple lines.
Can I make one of the lines red?

Static text in Adobe forms

Hello Experts,
I have requirement to create a adobe form which have 90% of static text .I want to know to display those text should i go with standard text(SO10) ot should i directly display it in text-field on the form layout.Or there is any other way to display.
Which is best? Kindly suggest.
Thank you,
Shweta

Hi Shweta,
I started working on adobe in late 2010. I prefer and would personally go for SO10 instead of adding text in text-field. Adding texts under one TextName would give a clear picture for further enhancements instead of adding the texts one by one in text fields.
We do have a Wiki on SCN about adding static texts to adobe forms using SO10. Here it goes:

Go to the screen where the long text is placed, From menu bar go to the header you will get the Object details.
Use FM READ_TEXT by passing those object details you will get the text.
Have a look in this link to use READ_TEXT
