Height of positioned subform in adobe

The size of positioned subform in adobe is minimum of 0.9cm , i am trying to reduce it below 0.9 cm but it is not going , is this fixed minimum height of subform or we can reduce it furthur .
if we can reduce it furthur then how ?

Exactly.. but i need to mention one thing more.
subform structure is like this only , u r absolutely right..!!!!!
MainForm(FLOWED) -> SF1 (FLOWED) -> SF2(POSITIONED)
if i place any field in SF2 then its size wil be minimum of 0.9cm and i remove all the fields and SF2 is blank then i can resize it below 0.9 cm..
i just now placed one more subform in the previous one
MainForm(FLOWED) -> SF1 (FLOWED) -> SF2(POSITIONED) ->
SF3 ((POSITIONED)
and i am able to resize SF3 below 0.9cm but as i put any of the field in it , it wil automatically jumps to minimum of 0.9cm.

How to export layer width, height, and position to a text document?

I am working on an automated workflow for which I need to know the exact width, height, and position in pixels of certain layers in a PSD.
I am pretty sure this is possible with applescript but does anyone know of a way to have this info included automatically in the documents metadata?
thanks,

Hi Gabriele - how did you add the subs to FCP? if you added them using the text tools built in then you need to try to extract those first. Neither FCP or DVDSP are good places to create subtitles, but apps like STL Edit and Belle Nuit are. These will both create subs that can be imported into DVDSP. You can also use a text file to import the subs as long as the text file is set up correctly. The precise format is listed in the manual for DVDSP and a tool like BBEdit is ideal if you want to do the subs this way. Some folk even use Excel to set up the timecodes, etc, but personally I find that too distracting, preferring to work with STL Edit when I need to add subs.
One thing is almost universally agreed upon in here - create the subs outside of DVDSP and import them in, since if you need to move, alter or otherwise change them it is a lot easier from within a text file than from within DVDSP.

If you're just doing it in a back and forth or spiral fashion, you don't need to check whether a square's been filled in. You just go from a start point to an end point. Those points and the squares in between are determined by simple arithmetic.
If you're doing it randomly, I wouldn't use the GUI elements themselves. I'd have, for example, and array of booleans that tells whether each square has been filled in.

How to find the height of growing subform

Hi Experts,
I am trying to find the height of growing subform at runtime. But I could'nt is there any way i can find it.
I am using the below formcalc script in the event layout read.
<variable>.Value = Subform.h
all the time i get the value as 0.
Regards,
Krishna

Hello Otto,
Thanks for your suggestion, couple of days back I used one of the layout methods to find the height of the growing subform.
this.RawValue = xfa.layout.h(<subform>, 'mm');
The above javascript code works in the event "Calculate" and in event "Layout ready" all the other events is returning the height as '-1'.
Basicaly I have two bodypages as shown below my requirement is to find the height of a subform in first bodypage and if it reaches a particular height I want to insert a page break using conditional break in SUBFORM2.
PAGE1
      - SUBFORM1(Bodypage1)-> ContentArea1
      - SUBFORM2(Bodypage2)-> ContentArea2
Condtional break code on SUBFORM2.
Height > 80
Break Before "X"    Goto top of Content Area <ContentArea2>
Unfortunately the conditional page break is not working now so trying hard to find a solution to it, please let me know if you have any suggestions here.
Thanks,
Krishna

Presenter doesn't have the same functionality for the TOC as Captivate. There is some wizardry that can be done if you want to adjust the look of the slide list.

Moving subforms in adobe form

Hi,
I developed an adobe form, it has 3 subwindows.
Form structure is:
It has 3 pages:
Page 1 contains Subwindow 1. This is a fixed subform which always comes. This subfirn has 3 checkboxes.
Page 1 has subform 2 also.
page 2 has subform 3
page 3 has subform 4
When checkbox 1 is clicked, subform 1 appears
When checkbox 2 is clicked, subform 2 appears
When checkbox 3 is clicked, subform 3 appears
When all checkboxes are clicked togeather, all three subforms appears.
When checkbox 2 and checkbox 3 is clicked, then subform 3 and subform 4 appears on page 2 and page 3.
My requiernmrnt is, when checkbox 2 is clicked, then subform 3 should be displayd on page 1 instead of page 2.
How to achieve this funcionality?
Regards,
Ashish Gupta

If you have below form hierarchy then it won't work the way you want as you are already creating pages and in case you hide/unhide a subform, it will reflective in that respective page only.
form1
|--Master Pages
    |--Page 1
      |--(untitled Content Area)
|--(untitled subform) (page1)
      |-- SubWindow                  // This is a fixed Subform
         |-- CheckBox1
         |-- CheckBox2
         |-- CheckBox3
      |-- Subform2
|--(untitled subform) (page2)
      |-- Subform3
|--(untitled subform) (page3)
      |-- Subform4
So if you want to achieve effect of having Subform3 appearing on Page1 itself then you need to place Subform3 on Page1 itself. Place the Subform2,Subform3,Subform4 next to each other or however you want but all on Page1 itself.
Follow below form hierarchy and properties as mentioned against it.
form1
|--Master Pages
    |--Page 1
      |--(untitled Content Area)
|--(untitled subform) (page1)
      |-- SubWindow                  // This is a fixed Subform. Make the Content type as Positioned in Object palette.
         |-- CheckBox1
         |-- CheckBox2
         |-- CheckBox3
      |-- Subform2                 // Make the Content type as Flowed in Object palette.
      |-- Subform3                 // Make the Content type as Flowed in Object palette.
      |-- Subform4                 // Make the Content type as Flowed in Object palette.
I believe you already know how to hide/unhide the subforms through JavaScript/FormCalc.

Unable to unhide subform in Adobe Form

Hello All,
Something that should be simple has turned into a bit of a trial. I have an Adobe form with three tables with different columns. Based on a variable passed to the form say, "number_of_tests" one of the tables should be visible.
This works fine when the subforms are set to "invisible" by default and then made "visible". However, it does not work when the default value is "hidden". Why does this matter? Well, the "invisible" element still affects the layout of the form so I need it "hidden" (exclude from layout). Any clue would be greatly appreciated.
Here is my sophomoric code and location.
data.#pageSet[0].Page1.NUMBER_OF_TESTS::initialize - (JavaScript, server)
if (this.resolveNode("$").rawValue == "03") {
this.resolveNode("Page2.ItemDataHdrSubForm3").presence = "visible";
this.resolveNode("hdrs.ItemDataHdrSubForm3").presence = "visible";
this.resolveNode("itms.ItemDataSubForm3").presence = "visible";
if (this.resolveNode("$").rawValue == "04") {
this.resolveNode("Page2.ItemDataHdrSubForm4").presence = "visible";
this.resolveNode("hdrs.ItemDataHdrSubForm4").presence = "visible";
this.resolveNode("itms.ItemDataSubForm4").presence = "visible";
Here is the structure of my elements.
MainSubForm is Flowed default to Visible.
SubHeaderSubForm is positioned default to Visible.
ItemDataHdrSubForm3 is flowed default hidden. (doesn't work, but does when default is "invisible")
ItemDataSubForm3 is flowed default hidden. (doesn't work, but does when default is "invisible")
ItemDataHdrSubForm4 is flowed default hidden. (doesn't work, but does when default is "invisible")
ItemDataSubForm4 is flowed default hidden. (doesn't work, but does when default is "invisible")
Again, thanks for any assistance.

Hi,
look into the XFA specs to learn the difference of visible, invisible, hidden and inactive: http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/xml/xfa_spec_3_3.pdf#page=68
Ok, so why do you use the initialize event for your script?
And the script you provided does not fit the structure form your screen shot.
It should look this way:
if (this.rawValue == "03") {
xfa.resolveNode("MainSubform.ItemDataHdrSubForm3").presence = "visible";
xfa.resolveNode("MainSubform.ItemDataSubForm3").presence = "visible";
if (this.rawValue == "04") {
xfa.resolveNode("MainSubform.ItemDataHdrSubForm4").presence = "visible";
xfa.resolveNode("MainSubform.ItemDataSubForm4").presence = "visible";

Importance of the subform in adobe forms

Hi,
   Since i am new to this adobe forms, can any one tell me the importance of the subform and difference between Body page & Main page of the layout.
   I was trying to use the adobe forms to print the internal table data, but at the end of the internal table data i need to 'write some text' and need to do some calculations based on internal table data.
   here i have used the subform at the end but the problem is subform is overwriting in all the pages. It should be displayed in only in the last page and after all the internal table records printed. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Subform: is nothing but make the individual fileds into one group.
Let say example: in my output i am displaying header information..... make all the fileds into one subform, it indicates as header subform.
Suppose if the subform properties are position contents it does not flowed...
Suppose if the subform is flow content and top to bottom, it should flow to subsequent pages....
In adobe forms we have two types of pages which are
Master page
Body page
Master page: Basically we will design the logo,address and fotter will be designed in the master page.
it has to reflect to the subsequent pages. Master page is excluded from the content area
Body page: we will design the Table Data. it should included in the content area.
if you want to display some thing into the last page you can write the scripting based on the condions....
Adobe forms support the scripting .....
We have evnets like if you are wirting the conditions on
Master page ---> Select the event as layout ready
Body page    ---> Form Ready event in the layout
Hope it may clears for your requirement
Thanks & Regards

Need help on subform of adobe

hai everybody,
I am using subform ui element for creating a table in interactive form.I am able to correctly
get the data in rows that i have binded dynamically using datasource property.
My problem is in my application i am having signature fields and other text fields which have to be displayed
at the end of the dynamically added rows. can any body suggest how to do this.
As i am adding the signature field at the bottom of subform, if number of retrieved rows are incresed
they r getting overplaced on signature field.
Please suggest a solution for it
Thanks in advance,

Hi Madhavi,
If you have declared the Layout as <b>Position Content</b> of the Signature and Other Fields that follows the Table in ur Form then it will certainly Overwrite it as Position Content Data are fixed in the Layout and they dont flow to the next Page.
Make the Layout of all the Subforms following the Table as <b>Flow Layout</b>.
Hope this helps u.

How to perform a reverse "Flowed" positioning subform

Hello Gurus
I need to create an Adobe form with a footer that will be reproduced on each pages.
The size of the footer will be determine by the text that will be put in from a parameter passed to the adobe form.
So, the footer needs to be at the bottom of each pages but because it can contains between 1 to 20 lines, I would like to provide all the content area that will not be used when the footer contains only 1 line.
Example 1: Footer with only 2 lines. Because the footer has only 2 lines we can use 5 lines for the content area. The footer will be at the total end of the page.
Top of page
Content line 1
Content line 2
Content line 3
Content line 4
Content line 5
Footer line 1
Footer line 2
End of page
Example 2: Footer with 4 lines. Because the footer has 4 lines we can only use 3 lines for the content area. The footer will be at the total end of the page.
Top of page
Content line 1
Content line 2
Content line 3
Footer line 1
Footer line 2
Footer line 3
Footer line 4
End of page
If we have a subform for the content and another subform immediately after for the footer, both in flowed, the footer will not be at the end of the page but immediately after the content subform.
So, I need to know how we can have a footer form where this one will always be at the bottom of the page and the high will be flowed from the bottom to the top to give the content area as much room as possible.
Regards
Daniel

Hello Sandy
That solution cannot work on a footer that has to be printed on all pages.
Those footer subforms have to be created at the Design View level and not at the Master page.
Doing so, the footers will be printed at the last page only.
If we are creating the subforms at the Master page, the content area will not adjust himself to the active footer subform.
Maybe I misunderstand how to have a footer to all pages at all time.
If I can create the footer subforms at the Design View and have it printed on all pages that would solve my problem.
Can we create a footer subform at the Design View and have it printed on all pages even if the above subform is a "flowed to to bottom" subform?
Regards
Daniel

Hiding subform in adobe forms

go to palettes and select script editor. you will find a white colored editor.
Click on the subform which is to be hidden in the heirarchy.
Select Initialize from the drop down list on the editor. And select Language as FormCalc.
You'll get the white space in the editor to write the code.
if the subform which is to be hidden is SUBFORM1.
then write the code as follows
$.SUBFORM1.presence = "hidden"
this will hide the sunform.
if the hiding of the subform is dependent on any condition then we can write the code as follows
if ( condition ) then
$.SUBFORM1.presence = "hidden"
endif
this code will hide the subform and all the elements in the subform only if the condition is satisfied.

Dynamic Height of a lines in Adobe forms

Hi All,
Below is my form layout -
The middle boxes are always blank and just need to show as columns. Now, there is a chance of more data on both Black circle data and red circle data.
If any of these increased, then I want to show the blank cells as well with vertical lines (separating columns). I tried subforms etc., but no luck, any help is highly appreciated.
Required format:
In below : right side second red box has multiple values as i told, so I need to have lines like green color dynamic increased.
Thanks,
Chandra.

Help Required regarding dynamic subforms in Adobe Output designer

Hi
I am working on a report(Purchase Order) whose requiremets are like this:
1. It contains a Header. a detail part and a footer(trailer). The header and footer should get printed on every page.
2. The detail part consists of 8 subforms.
Some of the subforms may have large data (basically the shipment or line information of a Purchase Order which may repeat based on the number of lines on a purchase order).In some cases some subforms may not have data at all, so these should not be printed when there is no data.
When the data is large and is overflowing into the next page the header and trailer are not getting printed on the next page.
3. When one of the field is overflowing in a subform all the other fields are alligned to the bottom line of the overflowing field.
Has any one worked on these kind of requirements or if any one knows how these can be achieved , please post your inputs.
TIA
Vijay

Hi
I would like to elaborate what exactly my problem is . In the detail part of my report all the subforms should be in a rectangular box with the detail header. So Should i make the Rectangular box as a seperate subform i should draw lines along with each subform which would be part of that subform.
When I tried making the box as a seperate subform the subforms data is appearing after the box in the Test Presentment but my requirement is that the data should be printed in the rectangular box.
Can anyone suggest how i should go about this problem.
|This is how my data should like in a box. |
|All the subform data should be displayed in the box. |

you can use as below,
below Scripting can be used to ahcive this.
1. FormCalc Scripting.

Combination of both is also allowed in same form.
Example:

StaticText1.presence eq u2018visibleu2019
Else
StaticText1.presence eq u2018hiddenu2019
Endif.
