Editable Drop Down box..

Hi,
I need to have a field where I can key in the values at the same time, I can even select the values from the drop down.
e.g. a list of values is shown in the drop down... user can pick it.. or he can key in a new value...
is it possible to design a field like this?

I don't know about such an HTML-Element, but why not combine a standard dropdown with a textfield, that is only displayed if a special value from the dropdown is selected..
- value1
- value2
- other --> if selected, displays the textfield
but maybe there is an ActiveX Component that has the feature you want..

Drop-down box population

I have tried to research this situation through the forums, but all the answers I've found are ... not quite 'it'.
I'm working in a relatively small company, producing forms to automate a good deal of the workflow. ( I used to be a Notes Dev and Admin, back in the day, so I'm very familiar with workflow and automating forms but this company is small enough that a lot of the backend processing is ... missing or in 'long term development'.) I have an expense report type form where I need to be able to have the users select the type of expense from a drop down box to start their line items, and then use the other kinds of fields to fill in the other data. However, the drop-down needs to be at least vaguely dynamic as specific projects/work details come on and get removed. Managing more than a dozen lines by hand is tedious and annoying.
Is there any way to popluate a drop down box's list with a hidden field on the form? It would save me a LOT of trouble if I could enter the data into a multi-line field and have the form auto-populate with that data instead. Barring that, is there a 'fast' way to clear out a list for a drop-down field without using the little minus sign to remove each item individually?
Many, many thanks in advance.

I know this is a over a year old, but I needed to populate a drop down list with over 400 entries, so I downloaded the above form and it would not hold enough entries. So I edited it and made the file 100 inches long and it had more than enough room for my entries I needed. It may well hold almost 1000 entries, I did not check. but here is a link to the longer form for those of you who need to enter many more entries.

Thanks to George Johnson for the wonderful first edition that has work well for many I am sure. This is his form only much longer to allow more entries.

Drop down box

I am using ACrobatX pro. I am a determined novice and any help is appreciated.
Before I added any code I created my PATTERN drop-down box and my ColorSelect drop-down box. For the ColorSelect box, which is the one I want to vary depending on the Pattern selected, I have not entered any items since this is what I want the JavaScript to do after the pattern is selected.
Next I went to TASKS, OTHER TASKS, JAVASCRIPTS, DOCUMENT JAVASCRIPTS
I used the article Programming List and Combo fields in Acrobat and LiveCycle forms - Part 1
Thom Parker – September 18, 2007 which I was referred to by GKaiseril, and added the following code which I modified slightly changing the field names and eliminating the reference to a 2nd field for price.
SetColorEntries()
var oPatternColors = {
Alamos: [
["Champagne"],
["Winter White"]
Alana: [
["Champagne"],
["Winter White"]
Altoona: [
["Barley"],
["Marble"],
["Winter White"]
Ama: [
["Marble"]
Anlu: [
["Champagne"],
["Marble"]
function SetColorEntries() {
if(event.willCommit) {
// Get the new color list from the Pattern List
// Since the selection is being committed,
// event.value contains the pattern name
var lst = oPatternColors[event.value];
// Clear the Colors list if there are no colors for the selected pattern
if( (lst != null) && (lst.length > 0) )
this.getField("ColorSelect").setItems(lst);
else
this.getField("ColorSelect").clearItems();
Then I selected the PATTTERN drop-down box properties, and picked Actions. Under select trigger I thought Mouse exit (kind of like after update) made the most sense. For select action I picked run a Javascript. Then in the pop up window where it says Create and Edit Java Scripts I typed SetColorEntries();
The system accepted my code; however, when I try to run it, nothing happens. Well actually I get the dreaded error beep.
I am hoping someone sees what I am doing wrong, and can offer some help. This order form will be very useful to my company and once I get it, I am hoping to apply to various other order forms I am creating for our customers
Thanks

Use the inspector for the cell you want the "Pop-Up" menu. Select Cell Format "Pop-Up". Then enter the list of items required. You can copy this cell to other cells with the same requirements.

you can create a method to populate the context attribute that you are using to map to your dropdown box.
DATA: node_info TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
DATA: it_table TYPE wdr_context_attr_value_list.
** select your dropdown data into it_table and pass it to your context attribute.
** here, mine is call PROJ_TYPE - the values should appear in your dropdown.
node_info->set_attribute_value_set(
name = 'PROJ_TYPE'
value_set = it_table ).

i dont know where i am making mistake and i observered one behavoir that if i have less options it is working but not with many why like that , please help me in this
Thanks

Seems to me your conditionals should look something like this:
<option value="Division"<cfif getData.council is "Division"> selected="selected"</cfif>>Division</option>
<option value="Facility"<cfif getData.council is "Facility"> selected="selected"</cfif>>Facility</option>
Your condition is the same for every option, and would likely never evaluate to true:
<cfif council IS "#getdata.council#"> selected</cfif>
getData.council will be "Division" or "Facility" or "District D" or ...
... but it would never be "council".

Hi

I use encoding "charset=utf-8", all other forms working fine.
Only Editable drop down show [squares] instead Ä Ö
Ü ...
How i can do that Editable drop down will inserts data in
utf-8 encoding?
(like other forms and fields in my page)
Thanks!

WebDynPro: Drop-Down Box

Hi there,
I'm making a web dyn pro application which has a drop-down box in the initial screen.
I have populated the drop-down box with values and corresponding texts. When I click on the button that allows me to select a line, it shows me the texts but after the selection is made, it shows me the value in the drop-down box instead of the text.
Can anyone help on this issue?
Thanks.

I think you need to put your text in the label right? Good Luck!

Using Mac 0S X Yosemite, in Print Setting when I select layout / arrows select print settings / there is no Basic drop down box to set color management on or off. I'm using Artisan 835 printer.

No - I got the iMac 27 because it was calibrated at the factory(?) and was highly recommended by friends and photographers. No complaints at all, but this printer issue is driving me crazy. I was thinking that if I upgraded to an epson pro printer ICC profile will be on there website. I can't find any for the 835. By the way I didn't calibrate the old dell monitor either and I have had several photos published with no problem at all. Just a note, on epson website there are no printer stating they will run with 10.10 Yosemite. I was looking at the R2000 series. Right now I editing photos that I have to have ready by Jan, maybe by then epson will have something ready.

Drop-Down Boxes showing blank

I'm recording a software demonstration that includes
drop-down boxes, which I've done for years with Captivate, but I'm
encountering a strange issue I've never seen before. When I look at
the slide itself, everything looks fine, but when I preview the
demonstration, the drop down box appears blank (a white box) for a
second before he box appears. There is no background or image
anywhere in the system, that I can see, of the screen with a white
box where the drop-down box should go.
When I go to preview only that slide (F3), the blank drop
down box appears in the last 1/2 second of the slide, yet it is no
where in the library of graphics. What is going on here?
I've been able to "fix" the issue by adding the bitmap of the
background over the top of the last 1/2 second of the slide, but I
really don't want to have to do that for every demonstration I do
in the future that includes a drop-down box. Does anyone know if
there's a recording setting that might be doing this?

Thanks for the advice - I usually try and record more slides
that I need since its easy enough to delete the extras. I've never
encountered this problem before, though. If anything, I'm used to
it recording the white screen that appears in a transition from one
screen to another and I take precautions for that. I've never had a
white box appear prior to a menu opening, though, or had a slide
show "movement" in the background graphic itself. It wouldn't
matter how slow I recorded it - it would still record the last
fraction of a second. It did get the completely rendered image, it
just added a little "interlude" on its own.
I had no idea that captivate recorded layers on the graphics.
When looking at the slide, the white box only appears when I drag
the playhead across the slide, and then only for the last fraction
of the second. Is it possible to edit these in any way? Maybe
"crop" the end of the end that shows the white box?
