How do I increase the leading in a multi-line text box?

Is this possible?
I did find this one posting from a few years ago where someone was asking a similar question:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/286972
Was this feature ever added? If not - how can I make the code work posted in reply to that post?  Just hiding the lines would be a good alternative, I think. I tried adding the code to my existing PDF but it doesn't appear to do anything, the lines are still visible when you type into the field.

No, leading control has not been added and it probably never will be.
The code in that other thread is not complete since the functions that he's calling are not shown. They are not built-in. Here is a link to a document with a multiline field that behaves this way: https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=AG6oZ3bi3DYHokxDPeWN7A
There are several small scripts in various events that control the behavior.

  • Hello All. I am working on a form, but I need to format the leading in a multi-line text-field.

    Hello All. I am working on a form, but I need to format the leading in a multi-line text-field. The options for the text-field only show a font size option, but no other styling options. Is there a way to format the leading? Thanks!

    Not within ID, and I'm not sure it can be done in Acrobat afterward either.

    Hi,
    Create a table layout region and under that use 'messageStyledText' for displaying the prompt and use 'messageTextInput' for text field without giving any prompt to that.

  • How do i change the number of columns within a text box?  I need to go from three columns to one.

    How do I change the number of columns within a text box?  I need to go from 3 columns to 1.  The insert column is highlighted and column break does not work for this.

    Pages '09 does not seem to allow layout breaks in Textboxes.
    Pages 5.2 has the same limitation.
    Use multiple linked Textboxes in Pages '09 to get the layout you want or create your layout in a Word Processing template in the document layer.

  • How do I create a multi-line text box?

    I have a PDF that was tradionally printed and filled out by hand, and am trying to convert to an e-version.
    Everything is working great but I can't figure out how to make this one thing work. For example I have a section like this:
    More Info: _______________
    How can I make it so when one starts typing in the "More Info" section, their response continues from the 1st line to the 2nd, to the 3rd, etc.?

    You can set a text field to be multi-line and tick off the option to scroll
    long text to have it automatically wrap, but you'll have a problem with the
    first partial line, since form fields can only be rectangular. Another
    problem might be the lines themselves, since you'll have to use a font size
    that will fit them exactly, or it will look odd. I would suggest getting
    rid of those lines altogether. They are not needed when filling in the form
    electronically. It's a relic from printed out forms where people had to
    hand-write their answers.

  • How to disable a single row of a multi-line text item

    I am trying to disable a date and a price on each row where the date is current or in the past (on theory the user can't update reference data that is in effect or past, only data which is not yet in use). It appears that forms 6i will make this an all-or-nothing matter, all rows (for a given text item) are enabled or all rows are disabled - no mixing! I am hoping forms is smarter than that, can someone give me knowledge? note: this is not a problem of enabling or disabling at runtime, I have that figured out, only row-specific application of the concept. here is my code:
    for c1rec in get_fees loop
    :cfee_def_dtl.service_fee := c1rec.service_fee;
    :cfee_def_dtl.eff_date := c1rec.eff_date;
    go_item('cfee_def_dtl.holdx'); -- inncouous field, not visible to user, but navigable
    IF trunc(c1rec.eff_date) <= trunc(sysdate) THEN
    set_item_property('cfee_def_dtl.eff_date',ENABLED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
    set_item_property('cfee_def_dtl.service_fee',ENABLED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
    END IF;
    next_record;
    end loop;

    Hi,
    move the logic in New-Item-Instance trigger and based on your condition
    SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY update_allowed as property_false/true.

  • How can I decrease the leading on all hard returns?

    How can I decrease the leading on all hard returns? I have a paragraphs that has 12pt leading, but I want 8pt leading on the returns. Is there a way to change them all at the same time? I know you can increase them by using the space before and after tabs. They only let you go from 0" and up, but not in the negative.

    I figured it out. Instead of having two hard returns I just used one and used the space after. I was using the space after and before option incorrectly. Thank you.

  • My performance is very slow when I run graphs. How do I increase the speed at which I can do other things while the data is being updated and displayed on the graphs?

    I am doing an an aquisition and displaying the data on graphs. When I run the program it is slow. I think because I have the number of scans to read associated with my scan rate. It takes the number of seconds I want to display on the chart times the scan rate and feeds that into the number of samples to read at a time from the AI read. The problem is that it stalls until the data points are aquired and displayed so I cannot click or change values on the front panel until the updates occur on the graph. What can I do to be able to help this?

  • How do I increase the font size in my email and maintain resolution.

    Hi folks. Mr Newbie is seeking some help, I hope it is relatively straight forward, thanks
    How do I increase the font size in my standard email and document views without losing resolution.  Right now my font size in email, headers and text is less than that on my iPhone, it rather defeats the point of having a 27" screen if most of it is blank and I have to sit with my nose to the screen to read email.  Thanks for your help, once you have stopped laughing.  C

    Two things you can do to easily aid with readability in Mail are as follows:
    1) Increase the size of folders in the sidebar:
    a) select "system preferences" from the Apple menu
    b) select "general settings"
    c) select small, medium or large under "sidebar icon size"
    2) Increase the text in the main body of the email (both sent and received):
    a) select "preferences" from the Mail menu
    b) select "fonts and colors"
    c) adjust font size for "message list font" and "message font".  I have noticed this works properly while in classic mode, but in regular mode the message list font doesn't appear to change size.
    Select classic mode by accessing Mail preferences and selecting the "viewing" tab.
    Another shortcut is to right click on the toolbar, then select "customize toolbar", and then drag the "smaller / bigger" buttons onto the toolbar.  Now you can decrease and increase font size as desired on the fly.

  • How do you increase the voicemail volume on an iPhone 4s ( Verizon ). The phone volume is fine. It is when I retrieve voicemails. Even the speakerphone is faint. I have adjusted the side volume buttons and the volume control in settings.What am I missing?

    How do I increase the voicemail volume on an iPhone 4s ( Verizon )? The phone volume is fine. I have adjusted both side volume buttons as well as the volume control in settings.

    Number one - that person has given you false information...the Apple store genius bar supports all Apple products whether in or out of warranty.  Checking is free, service on an out of warranty item is not free.
    Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.
    Since you show that you have iOS 7.0.3 you might want to update that iOS to 7.0.4...plug the iPhone in so you are on a solid power source, then while on a WiFi go to Settings > General > Software Update and update to 7.0.4.
