Highlighting areas in a form

I have a client who leases furnished office units. He wants a floor plan which will be used by his  leasing agents which shows the following info for each office: high price, low price and current price. These figures will change on a regular basis. He also wants to be able to highlight each office to indicate whether it is  vacant (RED),  available in 30 days (BLUE) or  available in 60 days (YELLOW).
I have turned the floor plan into a PDF form with 3 fields located in each office for the prices. My problem now is creating a feature which will allow the user to highlight each office according to the parameters I indicated above. My initial solution was to add 4 radio buttons to each office--red, blue, yellow and white (to reset). It does the job, but I would like the highlight color to be much larger (almost as large as the office).
Is there a way of doing this? Would it be possible to add a large box to each office and somehow make it so the user can change the color? Can the fill color of a field be determined by a separate radio button or check box? Is it possible to set up a sequence for a radio button so that it changes color with each click?
Here's a screenshot of the form:

Thanks!

George-
Thank you so much for your response!! In your sample document, the "Click the traffic light" example is exactly what I'm trying to accomplish! Although I know that the Javascript I need is right in your document, I'm a novice designer and I am unfamiliar with Javascript. I'm having a little difficulty figuring out exactly which parts of the JS I need for my button to do the same thing.
I've uploaded my file to show exactly what I would like it to look like and do.

As you can see in the upper left corner of the floorplan, I would like to add a single button (traffic light) to each office. I made the buttons large enough so that a small portion of it would be clickable, as the price fields would have to lie on top of the buttons so as not to be obscured by the solid fill color.
Each click would cycle through the three colors shown in my document, exactly the way the "traffic light" button cycles through its three colors. At the bottom of the floor plan in the center I added a color key for the user--would these three text boxes be useful in the scripting (like the three hidden buttons in your example)? Could you please tell me what JS I need to add to "Document Javascripts" as well as the JS for the Actions tab in the button Properties?
Sorry if I've given you more info than is needed--thank you so much for your help!!!

    I add more highlighted areas to my form how do I save it so it shows up when some downloads it from my website

    When you say freeze, how long for? The Finder may just be temporarily bogged down and unresponsive. If I had the time and I was you I'd just leave it overnight to see how things go.
    If not you may have to boot in via the CLI and do things from there. This is something I can't help with though I'm sure someone will chime in with some info.

  • Attachments are missing in form later when you view the form

    Hi All,
    we have developed the application with webdynpro java with adobe interactive forms, we have implemented adding attachment to adobe form . I have two problems related to adobe attachments.
    1)  once files are attached to form and submitted the form data. Later when you view same form , if you look at the attachments . Files are available. But in the same webdynpro form where the adobe form is rendering has back button.
    Once you click on the back button and again if you display the same adobe form and try to look at the attachments. But attachments are missing. the attachments not able to see till i close that browser and open the the application in new browser. Some thing causing the issue click on back button and try to revisit the same adobe form to see the attachments in file.
    2) Another problem is  file names with attachments. once files are attached to form and submitted the form data. Later when you view same form again attachments are missing. In case, if any of the file name have the special characters like " %, $, &". for example if i attached three files to form , but only one of the file names has the special characters, then the whole three files are missing when you look at the attachments in the form.
    Please let me know what could be the issue. How to resolve it.
    One quick solution for the 2nd problem is , Prompting the user with warning message, while attaching any files to form have the special characters to file name.  what is the logic need to be write, where need to write.
    Please answer to this

    John,
    thanks for the reply, can Please elaborate  your question.
    How i will add the attachments to the form means, we have online forms for submit the data , while submitting the data , all the relevant documents or files  related to request will be attached to the adobe form , click on  attache icon available in adobe form.
    thanks

  • Where are my Web Form entries stored in the webBasics plan?

    Where are my Web Form entries stored in the webBasics plan? Currently—in my trial site—I can access Web Form responses through a Custom Report. Will this option be available to me in the webBasics plan?
    My hope is to use the webBasics plan with a Web Form (and a few custom fields) and have the reponses stored for me in the Businsess Catalyst interface.

    You do not get the CRM element of BC with the webbasic plan. With BC storing the forms it creates "cases" Which are stored against the "Customer" in the "CRM". You dont have access ot that with the webbasic plan.

  • FaceTime bright highlights are overexposed.  How to fix this on my iMac with Lion.?

    FaceTime bright highlights are blown out, overexposed.  How to fix this on my iMac with Lion? 

    If restarting doesn't fix, use the relevant suggestions from Apple's How to Troubleshoot iSight.  If nothing else there works, the repair by an Apple-Authorized Service Provider suggested there and by spudnuty will get it sorted.
    (Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD."  Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)

  • Hi, I've checked how to use kannada keyboard in Yosemite. But, there are some 'vattu forms' and other grammar in Kannada language that I don't know how to use it. For eg, Preetiya taatanige nimma muddu mommagalu maduva namaskara? How to write this?

    Hi, I've checked how to use Kannada keyboard in Yosemite. But, there are some 'vattu forms' and other grammar in Kannada language that I don't know how to use it. I know how to change between the keyboards and can also view keyboard. However, For eg, 'Preetiya taatanige nimma muddu mommagalu maduva namaskara' How to write this? If anybody can answer this, very much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for your reply.

    In general, you need to use the "f" (kannada qwerty keyboard) or "d" key (kannada) between letters to make special forms.  Also you may need to adjust the typography settings of the font, which is done by doing Format > Font > Show Fonts > Gear Wheel > Typography as shown below.  If you can provide screenshots or more detailed info on things you cannot make, I can perhaps help.
    It is important to note that MS Word for Mac does not support Indic scripts -- any other app should work OK.

  • %Highlight% area of Custom Menu - Display only?

    I'm experimenting with Custom Menus and had a question about the Highlight area of the custom menu.  I have created another template that pops up when a selection is made along the left side of the custom menu.  On the EV_Default tab, I put the path to this template in the column with the header "P1".  If I designate the action "Openlocalfile", the new template opens outside of the custom menu and the links on that template work (it's linked to various .PDF's).  When I designate the same file with the action "Highlight", the template appears on the right side within the custom menu, which I prefer, however my links longer work. 
    Is the Highlight area essentially a "read only" or "view only" area?

    Hi,
    What I have understood from my experience is that we cannot do anything in the highlight area.
    Hope this helps.

  • Highlights are rendered unevenly, in LR4.1 and in outputs

    I am using LR 4.1 on a Mac with OS 10.6.8, and my highlights are showing banding or steps in the highlights as they gradate from bright to pure white. Seems to happen no matter which camera was used. Also, tiffs and jpegs output from the raw file exhibit the same banding. I do not remember this being an issue in LR 3.6 which I just upgraded from, but when I just now opened the same image in LR 3.6 I see the same problem. I just upgraded the OS before installing LR 4.1. Could the new OS be the problem? Is there a known issue with this in LR4? The only local adjustment I have made is spot removal.
    If there is a thread on this already, please direct me to it. I searched and did not find one.
    Thanks,

    Hi Rikk, thanks for the reply.
    I am on an iMac, this one here:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac-core-2-duo-2.4-20-inch-aluminum-earl y-2008-penryn-specs.html
    From my system profiler:
    ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT
    iMac Display:
    Resolution:
    1680 x 1050
      Pixel Depth:
    32-Bit Color (ARGB8888)
    Hmmm, is that "32-Bit Color Pixel Depth" a problem with LR4 having that 64-bit spec?
    I calibrate my monitor manually using Apple's procedure.

  • Showing highlight areas in Curves other than with mouse

    I want to set the highlight and shadow sliders in Curves but am finding the mouse a pain to use because it is not sensitive enough. When trying to set the shadow slider to just under the darkest region (no clipping), I typically do this:
    1. Option-Click the black slider and drag it to the right until the shadow detail appears.
    2. Back off until it disappears.
    Trying to do that with a mouse is fiddly, not helped by the hysteresis in the system. Say the first shadow detail appears at level 15. When you reverse and go to 14, the shadow detail increases. That is another pain.
    Anyway, I'd like a method that uses the arrow keys to show me the shadow and highlight areas.
    Am I in luck?

    If your just using a curves adjustment, not a curves adjustment layer, then
    you can check the Show Clipping box, click on either the highlight or shadows
    slider, highlight the numbers in the box and use the arrow keys.
    With the new style adjustment layer panel, that doesn't seem possible.
    What you could do is record an action making a new curves adjustment layer
    and make sure the show dialog is on.
    This will get you the old style curves adjustment layer dialog which works like the
    regular curves dialog as above.

  • ICal highlights are too light

    Apple, please provide an option to change the highlights for "Today" and the selected day. The current highlight are nearly invisible and indistinguishable. I can't imagine it would be much effort to allow user selectable colors.

    yes, thanks... i have done that... i had searched here for info on iCal and other calendaring programs since i've been looking into calendaring programs in the workplace... since i had found fairly little on this subject, i thought i'd just share some observations, if someone else comes here searching for such info...
    also i've gone to the apple store to see if someone there could help out with the program and to see the changes to the next version. it's a small datapoint, but there was very little knowledge amoung the store employees. only 2 people had really used it and they were confused about how to do some relatively simple things...
    i think iCal has some growing pains to get to the usability of other apple programs, like their mail reader... but i do think they are doing a good job, nonetheless... all the development for the iphone and all the other fronts they are working on is very challenging... so i'm keeping my figers crossed that they can continue to improve iCal along with everythign else...
    thanks again for your note-

  • Invisible Text in fields after highlights are deactivated

    Completed fields in the sent adobe form are invisible.  I have deactivated the highlighted field as instructed but the completed fields stay invisible.  If I were to type a character in the field, the information in that field will stay visible.  As the forms have confidential information I cannot sent them for samplings.  Any suggestions?

    Unless you can verify what caused the problem, I would go with the most common cause of this issue which is Apple's Preview program.
    There have been a couple of scripts that can repair the form have been posted and are a free download.
    One could also export the data to an FDF file and them import that exported data into a good copy of the form.

  • Text field highlighting Issue in oracle forms 11g after migrating from 10g

    We have migrated the oracle forms from 10g to 11g.
    On 10g oracle form when I click on the text item then text item value gets hilighted in blue color but after converting same form(without making any code changes) into 11g version form when I click on then text item then value is NOT hilighted.
    Could please help me why it's behaving different? Are there any configuration changes required at the application server side?
    Thanks

    christian,
    We have forms 11.1.1.2.0.
    In oracle forms “text item value is highlighted When user clicks on text item” is controlled by form level property “KEEP CURSOR POSITION”.
    This property is not working with JAVA SUN plug-in in forms version 11.1.1.2.0.
    This issue has been fixed under Patch Set 2 (11.1.1.3.0). Please see below meta link.

  • Is it possible to change the colour of the highlighted fields in a form? And if so how?

    Hi there,
    I would like to know how to change the highlighted fields that show up on a form once it has been designed and PDF'd. I know i can turn it on or off but i would like to just change the colour so it matches our styling of the company.
    Is there a way to do this and if so how??? If not thats fine i just need to know if there is a way.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    What do you mean by travel? Is that when it wont change all settings across the board? e.g another staff member with adobe acrobat wont have the same settings as i do?
    I am the only one creating the forms and using any adobe settings anyway so i guess it wont really matter that they dont have the same settings as i do but its not hard to change them on all pc's anyway.
    Thanks though.
