Getting multiple lines in a field

I have been designing a report which has a description field which has more than 100 characters.I have tried to set the property of the field so that I get the description in multiple lines.But all my attempts have failed.It would be nice if I could get the solution.
Thank you,
Prabhitha.

Did you set the 'Vertical Elasticity' (in General Layout of field's property) be 'Expand' ?

  • How do I get multiple lines to print for a blank text field so that it can be filled in by hand?

    I have to design forms that are fillable electronically and by hand.  The problem that I am running in to is supplying multiple lines that will print for people that are hand filling the form.  I have tried to add an image of lines behind the text field, but these would get in the way when the form was filled in electronically.
    I am using LiveCycle Designer ES2 v. 9.0 on a Windows machine.
    Thanks.

    Ok.
    Take a textfield
    Go to Object | Allow multiple lines
    Go to Layout | Height | activate "Expand to fit"
    Go to the initialize-Event or readyform (You have to change the _ for your textfield)     this.rawValue = "___________\n___________\n___________";
    Go to the enter-Event   this.rawValue = null;
    Go to the exit-Event  
              if(this.rawValue == null)
                    this.rawValue = "___________\n___________\n___________";
              }else{}
    With this solution you can simulate the same as pattern see above.
    I hope this is helpfull for you,

  • Multiple lines in text field will not print

    I have created several text fields in a form that was created to be filled in and then printed. The text fields allow for multiple lines but when they are printed they only print the text that has been displayed. Is there any way to get Adobe to print all of the text in the field? Thanks! Teri

    I am also having trouble with this. I am using LiveCycle Designer that came packaged with Adobe Pro. I have a form that has several one-line text fileds and checkboxes at the top and then the last field is a text field for comments. I need this text box to expand to a second page, if necessary. I am VERY new at this and I find the help features with the applicaiton hard to understand. I have the field set to "expand to fit" and I have checked the "allow multiple lines" and saved as dynamic form. It allows me to type as much as I want but it doesn't print. Just displays a + sign at the bottom. I looked at the sample purchase order form and that didn't help me. Can someone give me simple clear instruction on what to do?
    Nay hekp would be ver much appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Getting multiple line responses to show up in their entirety in the PDF

    I am using a form created in Forms Central that contains numerous multiple line text boxes.  When I create a PDF of the responses received the multi-line responses do not show up in their entirety.  Is there a way to do this?

    You can make those multiline boxes bigger in the Design Tab so that it would fit the whole text then generate the PDF for the responses (this will also change the field size for the form fillers).
    The other workaround is to print the Detail View of the response (View Responses Tab : View > Detail View). The print button is at the bottom of the Detail View.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I get multiple lines in codeblock ?

    FM 11
    I know that <codeblock> is designed to represent lines of program code and that line endings and spaces must be preserved. However, my line endings are not being preserved; turn into a new <codeblock> leaving me with line after line of <codeblock> elements like this:
    <codeblock>Do forever.</codeblock>
    <codeblock>Say "Hello World"</codeblock>
    <codeblock>End</codeblock>
    Rather than like this:
    <codeblock>
         Do forever
              Say "Hello World"
         End
    </codeblock>
    These are my Text format rules in my EDD:
    1.   If context is: * < stepresult < substep
             Use paragraph format: CodeBlock2
    Else, if context is: li < * < choice
         Use paragraph format: CodeBlock3
    Else, if context is: * < stepresult < step
        Use paragraph format: CodeBlock1
    Else, if context is: * < stepxmp
        Use paragraph format: CodeBlock1
    Else, if context is: * < step
         Use paragraph format: CodeBlock1
    Else:
         Use paragraph format: Codeblock
    2.     If context is: [expanse="page"]
                   Pagination properties
                        Placement: Across all columns and side heads
    CodeBlock is defined like this in the FM Paragraph Designer (with only the margins differing for CodeBlock1, CodeBlock2, etc.)
    What am I doing wrong?
    Marsha 

    Hi Marsha...
    The key is in your r/w rules file. You need this ..
    element "codeblock"
      writer line break is 99999 characters;
      reader line break is forced return;
    The "writer" rule ensures that the lines don't wrap inadvertently when written to XML (99999 is a bit extreme, but doesn't hurt).
    The "reader" rule preserves the line breaks.
    You'd insert the codeblock element, type your line and press SHIFT+ENTER for a linebreak, then type the next line. Save and reopen the file and it should be all good.
    The only problem (in default FM is that if you want to use elements within the codeblock for formatting on inline content), if the end tag of an inline element "touches" the line break, that line break will be lost on save (or open). You have to manually insert a space between the close tag and the line break mark. (As you might expect, DITA-FMx automatically fixes this problem.) Also .. if your inline tagging wraps to a new line, you'd need to include a r/w rule for that element as well in order to preserve the line breaks within.
    Re-reading your post, I'm wondering if the actual problem is that you're pressing ENTER at the end of each line rather than SHIFT+ENTER. If so, that will end the current codeblock and start another. Try SHIFT+ENTER instead.

  • Transaction MM60 printing multiple lines for the same information

    Transaction MM60 is printing the same information multiple times, meaning that the same materail is printing multiple times with the exact same information.  Any ideas why?

    It IS showing duplicate lines.   The columns that I'm showing are:
    Material
    Plant
    Val. Type
    Material Description
    Last Change
    MTyp
    Matl Group
    Unit of measure
    Purchasing group
    ABC indicator
    MRPType
    Valuation Class
    Price Control Indicator
    Price
    Currency
    Price Unit
    Created by
    Every single field is identical and each material contains exactly eight rows of identical information.  The interesting thing is that if I actually enter a material number, only one line shows (which is correct.)  However, if I leave the material number blank and enter the material type, that's when we get multiple lines.
    Any other ideas?

  • Multiple Line Results

    I use Crystal to get shipments by warehouse.
    The only way to get this is by Order Entry line item detail - Warehouse # field.  However, if I group by
    invoice #, I get multiple line results for every line item on the invoice.  I only need one.
    So if I have total fields in the detail, I get repeated info.
    I cannot surpress becuause some totls may be the same on multiple invoices.
    If the last item on the invoice is freight or misc. charge, there is no warehouse associated with this so i get no answer if I just take the last record.
    The item line field (status) DOES NOT WORK other wise I could use a formula to pick warehouse for item # 1 line.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    If you could post some sample data that would help.
    What about multiple groups.  group by warehouse and then date, item number etc.
    Once you have these, supress the group headers / footers as needed..  Again a sample of the
    data would help.

  • Printing PDFs with Multiple lines enabled

    Hi, I need some help with Designer. I have no clue how to really use it, I've been playing with it for a week, but some things I can't figure out.
    I have a text field that fits about 1 line of text on it. I enabled multiple lines in the field, because people are going to be typing a lot. However, when I print it, only 1 of the lines shows up. Is there any way that I can fix the settings so that the box expands as the text is typed, and that if it can expand, the entire page shrinks to keep it to the same amount of page numbers instead of bumping everything down the page? If someone out there knows, please help!!!
    Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    Maybe this can help:
    1 - Save your form as a Dynamic Form
    2 - Place a subform with Flow content
    3 - Place a text box with multiple line in the sub form. Make it expand to fit (layout tab) and Data Format XHTML (binding tab)
    4 - Put the contents in the field
    5- Click outside the field and print it.

  • Multiple Lines of Text not showing up

    Hi,
    Recently we have observed on a particular site in SharePoint farm that whenever we are adding list field of Multiline Text.
    It is not showing up in list forms (New, Display, Edit). Test is Multiple Lines of Text field. This is happening on all the existing as well as new lists.
    I searched for the issue but couldn't find any solution.
    Please guide me on this issue. Appreciate your help.

    Hi Rahul,
    Per my understanding, the Multiple Line of Text column not showing up in all the form pages in one of your site.
    I suggest you do as follows to troubleshoot this issue in your environment:
    1. Is there any update or customization applied to this site recently?
    2. Please inspect the HTLM source code of the Multiple Line of Text field in NewForm page to see if there is corresponding HTML code in the page. In my page, the HTML
    code of the Multiple Line of Text field like this:
    3. If the HTML structure exists, then it is probably a CSS issue, please check if there is custom CSS style applied to this site which would conflict with the built-in
    style of the Multiple Line of Text field.

  • Multiple line items in ESERVICE table

    Hi All,
    In production they moved out one BP from a premise and Moved in another BP in that premise.Now when they reverse both Move In and Move out they are getting multiple line items in ESERVICE table.In our case two shipper was created.How to avoid this issue?
    Regards,
    Avishek

    You recieve in reference to the PO, not in reference to the 351 goods issue movements, hence SAP defaults just one item to MIGO.
    If you get the quantity in one physical delivery, how can then the receiver know that it was issued with 3 different material documents?
    if the receiver gets kowledge about 3 different goods issues from the accompaning paperwork then he amend the suggested quantity and post  partial quantities.
    if the goods issue was done with 3 material documents because of a certain reason like different batches, then the receiver can click the distribute icon to distribute the quantity of one item line in MIGO to several lines based on batch numbers.

  • How do you get a line with MULTIPLE fields to WRAP ?

    How do you get a line with MULTIPLE fields to WRAP ?
    Good afternoon everyone...
    THE PROBLEM: Why doesn’t a line with multiple fields WRAP?
    HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE/WHAT I”D LIKE TO SEE
    If I have 2 fields on a line (this is now a hypothetical example and nothing to do with my actual report)….let’s call them field A and field B. And if field A has values of all ‘X’ and field B has values of all ‘Y’…then….the normal case would be (ignore dots – only for spacing):
    A……………………… B
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
    But what if A is too long? I would want to see B wrap onto the next line like this:
    A……………………………………………………B
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX YYYYYY
    YYYYYYYYYYYYY
    And similarly….if B is extra long, can the line print as:
    A………………………. B
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
    YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
    I don’t want the case where B is long and I get:
    A………………… …B…
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
    ………………………..YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
    I can see how you can wrap an individual field like that…but how can you WRAP a line of[b] fields within the frame so it wraps to the BEGINNING of the frame on next line?
    My SPECIFIC CASE
    I have a report that I have stripped down to a simple structure for the purposes of this explanation.
    My DATA MODEL has the main QUERY (for plant family and species data). The columns of the query are divided into 2 groups. The 1st GROUP contains the family data. Below that is the rest of the species data in a 2nd GROUP.
    Linking from the 2nd species group (above) is a new QUERY to extract REGION data based on the common key field. Under this 2nd query is another group with all the REGION columns.
    The LAYOUT MODEL has a group frame (the main , base one)
    On top of this is a repeating frame based on the 1st group (family data).
    On top of this is another repeating frame for the 2nd group (species data).
    On top of this is 2 Frames on the same line line. The 1st frame contains columns from the species group .
    The 2nd frame on this line is a repeating frame. The PRINT DIRECTION for this frame is ACROSS/DOWN. It repeats details of the REGION where the species is found. These columns come from this group come from the REGION QUERY and GROUP.
    All fields on the report line have variable horizontal elasticity.
    The problem is that when there is too much data on the line, it does NOT WRAP to the 2nd line.. It TRUNCATES.
    Can the line be made to WRAP????..
    In my current report, 1 of 2 things is happening:
    1) All fields print on the line until it hits the page boundary and then it just stops. Truncated!
    2) All fields print on the current line, then Oracle Reports throws a new page to print the REMAINDER of the long, input line
    But I would like a LONG line to continue printing onto the following line of the same page.
    I have tried all combinations of the elasticity fields and the ‘ADVANCED LAYOUT’ properties.
    I have been focussing my attention with this problem on the frames .
    We are using REPORT BUILDER V 6.0.8.26.0
    Thankyou to anyone who may offer assistance.
    Tony Calabrese.

    Steve,
    you gain 1 thing, but you lose something else!
    This thing is SO frustrating!
    Hey Steve! Good afternoon.
    I've done as you suggested....I have a long text boilerplate item - the only 1 on the line...and it has all the column in it.
    So it looks like:
    &col1 &col2 &col3 &col4 &col5 etc etc etc
    And the line expands nicely to each field's requirements.
    And when it gets to the right page boundary...it WRAPS to the next line! Beautiful!!!
    The only thing is that...when I had individual fields across the line I was able to create format triggers for those fields. And in doing so I was able to reduce the font and change the justification. I had to do that because some of the fields had to appear superscripted.
    So I wanted something like (ignore the dots):
    ...................................ppppp
    AAAA BBBB CCCCC DDDD EEEE FFFFFF
    So the field of 'ppppp' appeared slightly higher on the line than the other fields...
    I can't see how I can do this with a single TEXT field containing all the &COL values.
    Have you ever come across anything like this?
    Thankyou again,
    Tony Calabrese 12/4/2007

    How can I allow the application to line through a field that has been locked after being digitally signed?
    We have multiple sections on a form with some fields being proposed information and other in another section having the approved information. once the approved information is entered we line through the proposed field so the data entry clerk won't pick up the wrong information.  However we are receiving an error when attempting to enter data  in the field which we have this edit.  Error property: line through cannot be set because doing so would violate the document permission setting.  any idea how we can get around this issue?

    You can control which fields are locked down after signing by setting up a collection. Then those that are not locked can be changed after signing. If this is not possible, then the line outs must occur prior to signing.
