Field Tree Dialog box - Detached

Here's my problem,  I accidently clicked and dragged the field tree dialog box in the editor and detached it from the main editor dialog box and now it just kind of floats out there.  I work with two monitors and now when I open the editor, I get the editor dialog box on one screen and my field tree dialog box on the other.  I know that I have done this before and never found a solution.  Luckily we had an upgrade to Crystal and the reinstall fixed my problem.  But alas, I have done it again.  Does anyone know if there is anyway besides a reinstall to fix this problem?

Hi -
Thanks for your fast response.  When I right click on the top bar where it says Field Tree I get this menu:  Restore, Move, Minimize, Maximize and Hide.  If I right click on the bottom bar of the Field Tree or in the dialog box, I get the options to Allow Docking, Hide, Find in Formulas.  So I click on u2018Allow Dockingu2019 - nothing happens.  Then I double click on the dialog box and nothing happens either.  I can still move the Field Tree box anywhere, but can't seem to dock it.  It seems like the u2018Allow Dockingu2019 option is for an item in the Field Tree and not really for the box itself. 
Can you tell what I am doing wrong?

  • SQL Expression Fields (Field Explorer dialog box)

    I have Crystal Reports Version XI.  When I open the field explorer I can't see "SQL Expression Fields (Field Explorer dialog box) "
    Please help.

    The following information helps you
    Symptom
    In Crystal Reports 9 and later, the 'SQL Expression Fields' is unavailable in the 'Field Explorer' dialog box. The report is reporting off a stored procedure or command object.
    Why are 'SQL Expression Fields' unavailable in the 'Field Explorer' dialog box?
    Resolution
    'SQL Expression Fields' are unavailable in the 'Field Explorer' dialog box because the report is based on a stored procedure or command object.
    When connecting to a Stored Procedure or using a command object the SQL Statement is predefined and cannot be modified by Crystal Reports therefore the SQL Expression field will not be available when connecting to either of these objects.
    The SQL Expression field works by adding an entry into the SELECT portion of the SQL Statement in a Crystal report. A SQL Expression Field is only available in a report when:
    u2022 The report connects to tables or views.
    u2022 Crystal Reports generates the SQL statement.

  • Sales Area Fields Mandatory Dialog Box not coming up

    Hello Forum,
    We have the Business Partner PCUI Application - CRMM_ACCOUNT, where in, there are mandatory fields made under Tab General Information and Sales Area. We have done the necessary changes in field grp settings and generated the layouts. for relevant field groups.
    When we create New Business Partner, the control is on the 'General Information' TAB. PCUI doesnot allow to save the business partner, unless, mandatory fields are filled out. It gves a Javascript Popup to fill the mandatory fields.
    But the same is not the case with Sales Area Tab, When we select Sales Area (Either by using Template Functionality or Selecting the Sales Area Manually), the fields in this TAB strangely remain in Readable Format only. No Changes are allowed to be incorporated. In this case there is no dialog box prompting for filling the mandatory fields. Also, it allows to save business partner w/o filling the sales area data mandatory fields.
    However, when we save, Change The Tabs (I.e. Goto General Information and come back to Sales Area Data, it sometimes enables the fields for Entry under Sales Area). And then it starts doing the mandatory field check in Sales Area Tab.
    Request, if anybody can provide, clues for this behaviour and resolution.
    Regards

  • Why is the 'Choose icon...' button in the Options tab of the field property dialog box not enabled?

    I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional XI running on Windows 8.
    This “feature” has been bugging me for some time now. I remember it happening when I used Acrobat 9 Professional (Windows XP) and it is still happening in Acrobat XI Professional. I think I figured out a situation when I can reproduce this “feature” conistently and I hope someone fixes this.
    Try the following and see what happens:
    1. Acrobat Professional is not open.
    2. Launch Word and start editing a document (or some other authoring tool that can generete PDF document).
    3. After editing the document, generate a PDF version of the document.
    4. Launch Acrobat Professional and edit the PDF document generated in 3.
    5. Add a button.
    6. View the button's properties.
    7. Change the Fill Color property in the Appearance tab to none.
    8. Change the Layout in the Options tab to Icon only.
    Now here is what bugs be. Shouldn’t the 'Choose Icon ...' button be enabled? It is not enabled after step 8. It is possible that 'Choose Icon ...' button is enabled for some of you. I this case, it would be nice if at least one of you who experience the same bug say so in this thread so that Adobe doesn't think I am sending them on a wild goose chase.
    I can enable it by selecting a different tab and then returning to the Options tab. A similar thing happens when reverting back from 'Icon only' to 'Label only' but I am not sure how to reconstruct a scenario for this one.
    Here is the dialog box for one instance when I noticed the bug.
    Regards,
    John

    You're right, it has been that way for a long time. I've never bothered reporting it as a bug since it's simple enough to deal with, but reporting it would be a reasonable thing to do.

  • Open dialog box....

    Hi Everyone,
    I have designed a form in which user has to input the path where he wants to save his report.
    Like c:\test.PDF
    what i want to do is that when user click a button againts this field a dialog box should appear in which he can select the location, like in Notepad File > Open or File Save.
    and after selecting the path and closing the box the path should be display in the text field which i have provid to my user. Is it possible to attach the default file extension automatically in the text box?
    like if user have written c:\test it should be automatically converted into c:\test.PDF? Any Idea?
    How is this posible in Developer 6i. I will be very thankful if someone can help me solving this problem.
    Regards,

  • How can I add form field value to the file name in save as dialog box

    I do not want the form to be saved automatically, just want the form to auto populate the "file name" only.
    A little background on the forms I want to use:  My company has 70 retail outlets, I'll use one of our pdf forms called an "Incident Report" as an example.  I would like for a store manager to be able to complete the form, then email the form to the main office (I already have javascript to add field values and form name to the email subject line), once the main office receives it, I want for them to be able to file the pdf electronically on our server.  We have mutliple forms that we use so I do not want any of the forms to automatically save anywhere, (at this time anyway) I just want the office personnel to be able to click "save as" (or whatever they will need to click) and the form automatically add certain field values from the pdf they have received, of which will be different each time the form is sent to the office (Date, store #, employee name etc.) in addition to the name of the form in the "File name" of the "Save As" dialog box.  The main office employees will decide into which server file the pdf should be saved.
    I'm using Acrobat 8 professional, the stores and office personnel use Adobe reader.
    One little note:  We currently print and file a lot of paper on a daily bases, as soon as I can get this to work, we are going green.
    Me and a lot of trees in this will really apprecitate any help you can give with this!  :-)

    You might want to take a look at the document "Developing Acrobat Applications Using JavaScript" (js_developer_guide.pdf) which is part of the Adobe Acrobat SDK, which can be downloaded here. Read the "Privileged versus non-privileged context" (p. 45ff.). You will find an example for "Executing privileged methods in a non-privileged context". Should be almost exactly what you are looking for.
    Small Outline: For security reasons ("the user always has to know what's going on") you are not allowed to use the "Doc.saveAs"-method without the user permission (--> in a non-privileged context). In order to reach the goal of a privileged context you can use a trusted function. You do this by creating a JavaScript file (*.js) in either the Application-JavaScript-Folder (default location on Windows systems: "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\Javascripts") or the User-JavaScript-Folder (default location on Windows systems: "%AppData%\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\JavaScripts"). Add the following content to the new file:
    myTrustedBrowseForDoc = app.trustedFunction( function ( oArgs ) {
         app.beginPriv();
              var myTrustedRetn = app.browseForDoc( oArgs );
         app.endPriv();
         return myTrustedRetn;
    myTrustedSaveAs = app.trustedFunction( function ( doc, oArgs ) {
         app.beginPriv();
              var myTrustedRetn = doc.saveAs( oArgs );
         app.endPriv();
         return myTrustedRetn;
    The developer guide actually wants you to add this content to the existing "config.js" file. I recommend creating a new file, since its easier to deploy in a network. Either way, every client/user who needs to be able to save documents this way, needs this JavaScript Code in his Application/User-JavaScript-Folder.
    Within the Acrobat Document, which you want to obtain a certain file name, you can now use the trusted functions "myTrustedBrowseForDoc" and "myTrustedSaveAs" to store the file. To call the trusted functions and deliver the file name you can either you use a form field (button) or you add a new menu item. Add the following JavaScript Action to the button/menu item and change "Roller Coaster" to the name of the field which contains the value which you want to become the new file name:
    var fileName = this.getField("Roller Coaster").valueAsString;
    try {
         var oRetn = myTrustedBrowseForDoc({bSave: true, cFilenameInit: fileName + ".pdf"});
         try {
              myTrustedSaveAs(this, { cPath: oRetn.cPath, cFS:oRetn.cFS });
         catch(e) {
              console.println("Save not allowed, perhaps readonly.");
    catch(e) {
    console.println("User cancelled Save As dialog box");
    Good Luck!

  • Validating Emails fields in my Dialog Box

    Actually this code is  attached to a button action. When my form is opened at first, my fields are populated and all the extra information are send to custom metadata.
    The opearator here, will hit a button  and a big dialog box appear with all the job information. You see actually only the email cluster. The idea is to help the operator to  easily build an email with copy and paste. Sometime the emails fields will be filled automatically and sometime the operator will fill them.
    The reason I go through a dialog box is I don't want the client to see to much information and the email is sent by a another application.
    My first idea was to put a validation script on the "OK" button but it seems not possible to "cancel" this action.

  • Math in 'Crop Pages' dialog box fields & Arrow key shortcuts

    I believe Acrobat is the only Adobe application i've used where you cannot do math in the dialog box fields. For example: In the crop pages dialog box, if the top value is set to '.25in' and I wanted to add '3p6' to that value, I cannot type '.25in + 3p6' like I could in InDesign or Illustrator. Adobe, you spoil us by letting us take advantage of this math feature in InDesign & Illustrator. My calculator has been getting a lot of attention lately.
    Also, what happened to using the arrow keys to increment the values up and down (crop pages dialog)? I used the arrows all the time in acrobat 7. Please bring that back! Prepress departments around the world will thank you.

    Not all of the listed email recipients on my contact form are receiving the inquiries.    Muse allows me to add several email addresses separated by a semi-colon (see below from Corey Wrote) but only one of the three addresses are receiving the contact form inquiries.
    Corey@Adobe wrote:
    Forms
    We've added a new Form widget to the widget library.
    You can easily configure the form to send the form submissions to multiple email addresses, and optionally redirect users to another page after submitting the form.
    You can add and remove fields, and style the form as you would other Adobe Muse elements. You can independently style the various states of the form, and form fields to provide a compelling user experience, with visual cues for error states, empty states, and more.
    Because Form processing requires server-side support, Adobe Muse forms are configured to work when published to Adobe Business Catalyst. If you make changes to your form and publish again, Adobe Muse will make the appropriate changes to your Adobe Business Catalyst forms.
    Adobe Muse will safeguard data when redesigning your Adobe Business Catalyst forms                
    If a field with no data submitted is removed, it will be deleted from the database.
    If a field that has submitted data is removed, it will be preserved in the database, but can be deleted from the Adobe Business Catalyst admin console if desired.         

  • Which shortcut can I use to move the highlight in a dialog box to the first field in the dialog box?

    I am working with FrameMaker 10. There used to be a keyboard shortcut  for moving the highlight to the first field in a dialog box. Without  this command I do not know how to move the highlight to the field I want  to modify. I assume the highlight is on a random field when my script  enters the dialog box.

  • Return results from custom dialog box not visibly updating field value

    I have a form with custom dialog boxes (execDialog) for data entry. The dialog box is being called from the Entry event successfully. I also have it called from the Click event. So, here's what I get:
    1. On entering the field, I get the dialog box pop up, I select a value, it visibly changes the field raw value and leaves focus in the field.
    2. If I exit the field and re-enter, it also works as in point 1 (as expected)
    3. If, while focus is already in the field, I click in the field, I get the dialog box, as expected, but after selecting a value from the dialog, the field raw value DOES NOT VISIBLY change until I exit the field! It's kind of like the click event is working in conjunction with the Exit event. This is totally counter-intuitive for a production form that is being designed for the general populace.
    Anyone had any experience with this?
    Cheers,
    Marty.

    Thom Parker answered this here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2614570#2614570
    Answer copied below:
    "The problem is that when the focus is on the text box
    it's in edit mode. It's only displaying the value interactively entered by
    the user, or as a consequence of the change event.  What you need to do is
    force the focus off of the text box in code.  You can do a little trick
    where you bounce it to a tiny transparent field, which then bounds the focus
    back so it doesn't look like the focus changed."
    What I ended up doing was calling up the dialog box, then using setfocus with no parameters to remove focus from the field, as follows:
    this.rawValue = this.dialogBoxFunction(this.rawValue); // passing current value so dialog box defaults to that value
    xfa.host.setFocus();

  • AJAX Call make SP to show the "Are you sure you want to leave this page" dialog box

    Hi all,
    I have a problem while editing properties of a Page. We have a custom Content Types which includes a field with a custom type (and custom control). The Custom control includes an UpdatePanel. The control is a tree view, so each time we expand a node, there
    is an AJAX call.
    The control is displayed on the page on Edit Mode. When we use the control from Edit Mode, expanding each node result in displaying the dialog box to ask the user if he wants to leave or stay on the page. 
    When using the same control from the "Edit Properties" form, expending the nods works perfectly.
    Also I couldn't reproduce the problem on FireFox, it only happens on IE.
    Using fiddler I could see a difference between the Post requests depending on the above scenarios.
    When using the custom Tree View from the Edit Page mode which result into the error, the POST request does not include the
    x-microsoftajax: Delta=true
    in the request header.
    When using FF or the Tree View from the Edit Properties window, the above header is present and the dialog box is not shown.
    Does anyone have an idea why I'm not having the the correct header with IE when using the control from Edit Mode?
    Cheers,

  • Can't close Sun-specifc settings dialog box

    Dear All,
    I cannot close the sun-specific settings dialog box when I attempt to create my mappings for my CMP entity beans from the Schema. Close button will not function. Also I can still go through to the Create Mappings window but it doesn't allow me to select my schema to generate the mappings. Whether this means it can't find the Schema file? I have checked and this is present in the JAR file and saved.
    I managed to create some mappings earlier today but have not been able to since. I have restarted the container, desktop, removed the EAR and created a new one. Still the window seems to fail every time. The log for the domain doesn't show anythign peculiar either.
    Appreciate any help
    Thanks in advance

    On the left tree view select the EJB bean and then click on the Entity tab. In the Fields To Be Persisted box do you have any fields checked? For each CMP bean at least one field should be checked to be persisted.

  • How to open subscribe dialog box when clicking ics link

    I would like to create a web page containing all our shared calendar links so my users need only to click a link which will open iCal, have the "subscribe" dialog box pop up and have the calendar URL auto filled.
    I've gotten as far as opening the ics file with iCal but am stuck on how to force the "subscribe" box to automatically open.
    For example, I would want the link: http://sharedcalendars/home/scott/calendar.ics
    to open iCal, pop up the "subscribe" box and auto fill the URL field with http://sharedcalendar/home/scott/calendar.ics .
    My users are lazy and complain to great lengths about having to manually type the URL of each shared calendar.
    Any Ideas?

    mouse listener on the tree, see if the click count is 2 and what node it clicked, open the dialog. MouseEvent can give you the click count and x/y coordinate, JTree can tell you what node is at that coordinate.
