How do you add a scroll bar to a scrolling text field in a folio?

I've created iPhone and iPad folios with multiple pages. There are scrolling text fields on each page. The fields scroll as designed, but the scroll bars on the text fields only appear while actually scrolling. Is there a way to have them always visible so the user knows there is more hidden info? The only bars that are constantly visible are the page scroll bars. Thanks!

Why is your content pane null? I thought the content pane was the top-level in all windows? If you want complete control over the location of a list box, you want to set the layout of the content pane to null... the way I almost always do this is the other way around, to create my own panel and use setContentPane instead:
JPanel content = new JPanel(null);
JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane(myListBox);
scroll.setBounds(380, 10, 500, 500);
content.add(scroll);
setContentPane(content);

How do you grey out a radio button if a text field is blank in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

How do you grey out a radio button if a text field is blank in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?
So this what I'm trying to do:
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
(     )   |                  |
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
I have a radio button: (     )
and a text field: |TEXT FIELD|
The third text field is blank, and I would like for the radio button next to it greyed out (user can't click on it) since the text field is blank. Is this possible to achieve? I'm assuming I'll have to use javascript, but what would the code be and would it be entered in the javascript editor for the text field or the radio button?
Thanks in advance guys

Hey, thanks, but it didn't work
I have the text fields as read only. Could that be why it's not working? Should I make the fields not read only?
Thanks,

HT5557 How do you add a panel where readers can insert text as they read?

Once published, I would like readers to be able to type their answers to questions as they read, so that they can return and see them there later. The questions which I have are not multiple choice. Eg. "What's one thing you would like to change about your life?"

HI DAVIDFON, Thank you for replying to my post.
I am using Adobe Business Catalyst to build the eCommerce component of the site. This is where i came a cropper.
I'm not using Bootstrap or Foundation. I have done a little research on both and am wondering how easy it is to add the tabbed section to Business Catalyst with Bootstrap? nothing really explains this online...
I'm also wondering how easy it is to put in custom information in the tabbed sections when the fields and tags are not available in Business Catalyst.
Do you know if i can add custom fields and new tags in Business catalyst when you add products in BC?
I'm sure you can but i can't find any reference to this online either?
Thanks for your help.

Scroll bar in multi-line text field

I have a text field that is populated (through event code) with a list of errors that are detected when a user tries to sign a form. That list can be long, and I had it designed so that if the list was longer than the height of the text box, then scroll bars would appear next to the text box and the user could scroll through the entire list.
I haven't changed anything, but the scroll bars just stopped appearing. Now the user can only see the top text that fits in the text box, and cannot scroll down to the lower text. Any idea? Is there a setting somewhere that controls that, something that perhaps got corrupted that I could fix? I'm looking around, but do not see anything obvious.
FYI, I have the Allow Multiple Lines option checked.
Thanks,
Emily

Figured it out... sort of...
I am not exactly sure what the problem was, but here's how I fixed it, in case anyone has a similar problem.
I thought the problem may be that I had code in my click event for that text field. That code displayed a message if a user tried to enter text into that read-only field, explaining that the field was automatically populated. That click event code is relatively new, so I thought that maybe Adobe deactivates the scrollbar when there is a click event for an object, since using the scroll bar requires you to click on the object, and "clicking" now has a different set of actions associated with it. So,I deleted the click event, and the scroll bar returned!
I thought I was so smart, and had identified both my problem and solution. Then, just for fun, I decided to try to put the click event code back into the object. And, much to my surprise, now I have both the click event code, AND I have a working scroll bar. So now, even though I have fixed my problem, I am not sure what its cause was. Except maybe there was a bug somewhere?
Anyway, hope that helps, in case someone has a similar problem. There seems to be some interplay between having a click event and having a scroll bar.

How do you auto populate a date in a different text field after someone digitally signs the PDF form?

I am trying to auto populate a date in a text box on the upper right hand corner of my document after someone digitally signs it. Is this possible? How do you do this?

Go to the Properties of the Digital Signature field and under the Signed tab enter this JS code, under the last option:
this.getField("SignDate").value = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", new Date());
this.getField("SignDate").defaultValue =this.getField("SignDate").valueAsString;
Of course, you can adjust the field name and the date format used in the script above.

How do you limit the amount of digits in a text field?

If a user was to input 9 digits into a text field. How do you make it so that an error message would appear if the user inputs more than 9 digits

That code will set the TextFields length to 9 standard charecters (might not be 9 though) To limit the number of charecters and throw an error message I would use a listener on the textField. Perhaps a keyListener that keeps track of the number of charecters. ( swing has document listeners which are really nice )

How do you add a title bar across top of web pg?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Put your title in the existing text box, select all and type Command and "+" repeatedly until the size is what you want. Or add a new text box, add your text, select the font and size with the Font button at the bottom.

How do you add File name to returned forms as a field

I'm sure this can be done just not sure how, I have begun a database using returned forms but want a field/footer at bottom of page showing the file name of the returned form so that each returned form can be identified easier for the purpose of the database. That is when I look up the dataset file I wouls like file name as one of the fields. The files use the format Sub Defect Form (1), Sub Defect Form (2), Sub Defect Form (3) etc etc. It is this file name I want to include in the dataset information and as a field on the bottom of the returned form. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Now it's taking hours for emails.
Not good.

How Do You Add Multiple CSS Rules to Text?

Hi everyone, I have these css rules in my css styles window they are all assigned to some text in a cell on my page.
.Def14grey4 <body>
.def14grey4 a:link <a>
.def14grey4 a:visited <a>
.def14grey4 a:hover <a>
.def14grey4 a:active <a>
.def14grey4 a:focus <a>
How do you add (all of) these styles to the text in the first place, I know how to add the first one (.Def14grey4), you select the text in the cell and choose the rule from the drop-down menu in the css panel, but how do you add the other ones to some text as well, so that it can have the same link properties.
Basically I have some more text elsewhere on the page and want to assign these rules to that as well.
thanks Gareth

You would want to change your order as shown here -
.Def14grey4 <body>
.def14grey4 a:link <a>
.def14grey4 a:visited <a>
.def14grey4 a:hover, .def14grey4 a:focus <a>
.def14grey4 a:active <a>
That way, the hover and the focus states are equivalent.
How do you add (all of) these styles to the text in the first place, I know how to add the first one
You don't really. The 4 bottom selectors say -
"find an element with a class of 'def14grey4', and style any link inside that element this way"
So, <span class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></span> would get the pseudo-class styles, as would any of the following -
<span class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></span>
<td class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></td>
<p class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></p>
<body class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></body>
<div class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></div>
<strong class="def14grey4"><a href="whatever.html">Whatever</a></strong>
and so on. These examples assume that there isn't some other more specific rule that would apply to the same links. You need to study up on the CSS cascade and specificity....

How do you add a video clip to a slide show?

How do you add a video clip to a slide show using elements 12?

You can import some very short video clips into Photoshop and make gifs. I can import short (10 second or so) .mvi video clips I've taken with my point and shoot camera.
Use File ->Import->Video Frames to Layers
CS3 doesn't recognize .mvi files until you enter *.* in the box, hit load, then find the file you want.
After the file has been loaded, go to Windows, and check Animation.
After the Animation bar loads, go to the right side arrow, check Make Frames from Layers.
Then Save for Web and Devices, and you've got your gif.
I find it much easier to use the separate software.

To add a custom label for a date, select Edit for an existing contact. Select Add Field. Select Date. Scroll up with the Info window above the date selection and select Other for the new date selection. Select Add Custom Label and then select this label for the new date field for the contact.
As far as linking dates with multiple contacts, the answer is no to that.
