  • Changing the background of a text field in adobe interactive forms

    Hello All,
    Is there any way to change the background colour of text field in interactive form dynamically.??
    Thanks,

    Naresh,
    Change the language to JavaScipt in Script Editor of LiveCycle Designer and use the following code to highlight the area of TextField where R,G,B means that you have to give the RGB values of the color you want.
    <YourTextFieldName>.border.edge.color.value = "R,G,B";
    For eg:- If you have a textfield with name TextField1 then this will highlight the TextField1 area in red color.
    if ((TextField1.rawValue==null) || (TextField1.rawValue==""))
      TextField1.border.edge.color.value = "255,0,0";
    You can use this on exit event of Textfield1 or at the submit button where you check the form data.

  • Change the background of a text field when a checkbox is checked?

    Hi,
    I'm new to Adobe JS, having done some browser scripting previously.
    I'm making a form in which I would like to change the background of a text field to bright yellow (RGB code 220,220,0) when a corresponding checkbox is checked?
    I have a checkbox named chkCD56, with an option value set to 1.
    I have a text field named CD56 with a transparent background.
    Can someone help me with the JS code?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    To make your number filed in Red :
    Right click on the field and go in format field click on Font tab and go in Color formula editor and give the following formula :
    If Sum(fieldValue} < 0 Then CrRed else CrNoColor
    Now go in Style formula editor and give the following :
    if sum() < 0 then Critalic
    This will make your field red and italic when it is less than 0
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    you can try to put the code similar to the one below in table iterator.

    In get method of your description column split the text into lines using <br> tag.

  • Changing font/-size of a text field on master-pages not possible? (field prop)

    Hi,
    I would like to change the font and font-size of a textfield on a master page.
    I wonder if I do anything wrong, because the font-options (size, font etc.) are simple greyed out / not avaliable, when I click on my text field.
    It seems, there is any way to customize the font-properties of a textfield (only) on master-page.
    Well I guess it would work with java script in init-event ...  but really, why the hell it should not be possible simply to use the properties/text properties?!
    Please correct me if I am wrong. Do I do anything wrong or is it really not possible to customize font of a text field on master pages?

    Hi,
    I was just about to post, that I figured it out.
    Actually, I use Livecycle Designer in SAP (transaction SFP). There seems to be a bug (one of hundrets by the way).
    If I click on a field, that does not have text-property e.g. subform, text-option menu greys out.
    Afterwards it stay this way until I click/doubleclick into a simple text (not text field). From that moment on, text/font-option menu is available again, until I click on something without text. => So pay attention and click wisely
    coming soon: "SAP meets Livecycle Designer - a (Bug)Lovestory", hardcover 124 Pages. ; )
    by the way: SAP does not sopport interactive forms higher than Reader 8.1. Its statement "8.1 is fine enough for everything you need in a SAP/Adobe Interactive Form". So beware of using XFA higher than in 8.1. sad, but true ...

  • ComboBox Problem to change the size of selected text in JTextPane.

    hi 2 all!
    I have a problem in combo box actions, when i change the item in the combo its set is not set at that time but that action is performed when next action is taken, i have used combobox.setAction(new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction(" click", 12);) command to set the size of the selected text
    Plz suggest the solution also if possible,plz provide some code for this
    Action action1 = new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction(
                                                 "double click", 12);
                                       Action action2 = new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction(
                                                 "double click", 14);
                                       Action action3 = new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction(
                                                 "double click", 18);
    s2 = (String) cb7.getSelectedItem();
                                       if (s2.equals("Small")) {
                                            cb7.setAction(action1);
                                            e1.setSource(cb7);
                                                      } else
                                       if (s2.equals("Medium")) {
                                            cb7.setAction(action2);
                                            e1.setSource(cb7);
                                                                          } else if (s2.equals("Large")) {
                                            cb7.setAction(action3);
                                            // e1.setSource(cb7);
    when i chooze any combobox item then according to that item i set the Action on ComboBox but that action is not working properly on the selected text in the JTextPane..means selected text in JText Pane is not changes its Size according to the comboBox selected ITEM.
    PLZ plzzzzzzzzzz help me:((.i will be thankfull to u.
    thanx in advance..

    this code is not working properly according to the action i set on comboBox.Thats correct, the setAction() method is used to invoke an existing Action on the combo box, not create a new Action.
    What you need to do is have a single action that uses the information from the item that was selected to build a dynamic Action to change the font. Something like:
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
         JComboBox comboBox = (JComboBox)e.getSource();
         int fontSize = Integer.parseInt( comboBox.getSelectedItem().toString() );
         Action fontAction = new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction("size", fontSize);
         fontAction.actionPerformed(null);
    }

  • How can I change the content of a text field in a PDF form with a defined variable?

    Hello all!
    First time poster, and getting pretty frustrated with trying to figure out this one issue. Here is the scenario: I am using Acrobat 10 Pro to design what is essentially a giant order form. I designed the document in InDesign, defined the various buttons and whatnot and then exported it to Acrobat to continue building the form.
    I have a Radio Button group called "conference_opportunities" which contains different options at different price points, so they are all named the same, but have different values (so that they belong to the same group and only one can be selected at a time).
    What I have done is created a "MouseDown" event on the radio button that sets a variable called "ConferenceOpportunity" which is equal to the title of the option they are picking. I then want to take that variable and display it in a text box called "Conference_Option". I am using a variable because the values of my radio buttons are all the actual prices of the option they are picking, so I can't define the value as the title of the option.
    So its an array of radio buttons, and at the bottom of the page there is the Option They Selected, the quantity (which can change) and the value (in dollars)
    I also then want to display this variable at the end of the document as a sort of summary of everything they chose to purchase as well but I imagine its the same code.
    I am not an expert Javascript person at all, so any code snippets would help greatly. I have looked over the Adobe Document on the SDK and API and have not been able to find a solution. I have also turned to the almighty google and still no luck.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks Everyone

    All you now have to do is use that variable to the value property of your text field... So add this at the end of your code:
    this.getField("Conference_Option").value = ConferenceOpportunity;
    Also, I would use MouseUp, not MouseDown.

  • How does one change the "rollover" value in text field of fillable PDF

    I have a fillable PDF, and the values displayed when rolling the pointer over a fillable text field are showing some strange values.  I inherited this form from someone who is no longer with the company.  I need to be able to change the values but can't figure out how.  I'm new to LiveCycle so any help is greatly appreciated.

    I guess you are referring to "Tool Tip" you can update those in "Accessibility" Pallet...in designer you would access this by Shift+F6.

  • How to calculate the size of a Text Field?

    Is there a way to calculate the number of characters allow in a Text Field? If a uer type over this number of characters a popup window will appear telling the user that he/she has too much texts. Of course I could use the Limit Length, but I have to manually put texts into this text field and count them. If the Limit Lenth number is too small, the texts does not fill the whole text field. If the number is too big then the texts does not get printed.

    There would be no easy way to do this. You'd need to do some pretty fancy calculations, it would all depend on the size of the field, what font is used, the font size, whether it's been bolded, underlined, italicized, etc etc.
    What are you trying to accomplish? Make it so that the user can type in the text field until it fills and then have it stop without scroll bars coming up to allow him to keep typing?

    Hi &V_NAME&
    Thanks
    XXXXXXXX
    U need to get the value of

    from the SF.
    If u have the value of the variable in an internal table, then
    LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA.
      V_NAME = WA-NAME.

  • Dynamically changing the size of a JPanel

    Hi All,
    I am loading multiple images in a JPanel. I want the size of the JPanel to increase dynamically as and when the images are loaded. I have also added a JScrollPane and added the JPanel to this JScrollPane.
    However, the images are cut as soon as it crosses 800 pixels (which is the preferred size of the JScrollPane and it starts to give me NullPointerExceptions where I try to access the image height and width. Here is the code that gives me the problem. The files are opened using the filechooser and put into a Vector, which is then retrieved in the paint() method and rendered to the panel.
    CurrentScreenSize is a Dimension that stores the value of the current screent size that the image pane should have.
    imagePane is the JPanel that contains all the images.
    //File | Open action performed
    void jMenuFileOpen_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    //Handle open action.
    if (e.getSource() == jMenuFileOpen) {
    fc = new JFileChooser();
    //Filter out only image files (uses Utils.java and ImageFilter.java)
    fc.addChoosableFileFilter(new ImageFilter());
    fc.setAcceptAllFileFilterUsed(false);
    fc.setMultiSelectionEnabled(true);
    int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog(MainFrame.this);
    if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
    File[] files = fc.getSelectedFiles();
    //This is where a real application would open the file.
    int x=10, y=50;
    for(int i=0;i<files.length;i++)
    try {
    Image tempImage = ImageIO.read(files);
    image.add(tempImage);
    if(tempImage.getHeight(this) > currentScreenSize.getHeight())
    currentScreenSize.setSize(currentScreenSize.getWidth()
    + tempImage.getWidth(this),
    tempImage.getHeight(this));
    else
    currentScreenSize.setSize(currentScreenSize.getWidth()
    + tempImage.getWidth(this),
    currentScreenSize.getHeight());
    if (imagePane.getSize().getWidth() <
    currentScreenSize.getSize().getWidth() ||
    imagePane.getSize().getHeight() <
    currentScreenSize.getSize().getHeight())
    imagePane.setSize(currentScreenSize);
    this.pack();
    //repaint();
    catch (IOException ex) {
    ex.printStackTrace();
    //When all images are loaded then paint it / display it
    repaint();
    public void paint(Graphics g){
    int x=10, y=50;
    super.paint(g);
    g = imagePane.getGraphics();
    for (int j=0; j<image.size() ; j++)
    Image img = (Image)image.elementAt(j);
    int imageWidth = img.getWidth(this);
    int imageHeight = img.getHeight(this);
    g.drawImage(img, x, y, imageWidth, imageHeight, this);
    x = x+imageWidth;

    got the Solution, using validate() method does the work under the hood.

  • Dynamically changing the size of KM document IView.

    Hi All,
    At present the framework page has 3 KM document Iview. All iviews are calling HTML files. Now if the content in HTML file increases, I get an scroll bar for that Iview. Also based on the resolution of the screen I get the scrollbar. e.g I have fixed the height of the iview to say X for a resolution 1024 * 768 where in no scroll bar appears, now if I choose 1280 * 1024 resolution, iview appears with both horizontal and vertical scroll bar.
    I tried to change the height type as automatic and the minimum height in pixels as 0 and maximum as 1000, then the iview it self disappears i.e it is taking the minimum height.
    Now in my scenario based on the requirement the HTML content will change but instead of automatically adjusting display height of the Iview, it is taking hte minimum height mentioned. 
    How can I display the IView without scroll bar appearing if the content of the HTML is changing or the screen resolution is changing.
    Thanks
    Namit

    Hi Namit,
    The KM doc iview is just like a container for storing and The horizantal scroll bar apperas as and when the content gets bigger than the container.
    One option would be to write a small iview with an imbedded iframe pointing to the KM doc, where the width, height comes from profile attributes. This would remove the option of horizontal bar. Coming to height , Set the height type of the iView to Automatic OR if that doesn't work because of domain issues then set it to fixed and in addition set the iview height to the height of the image + 10~20 px more..
    Hope this helps you.
    GoodLuck!
    Regards,
    Shaila
