Can you create a button that adds specific text to a form field?

Hi,
I was wondering if it was possible to create a button in a PDF that, when clicked, adds specific text to a form field?
I am trying to make a product catalogue where you click on a product button to add the product name or code to a form field.
Each product in the catalogue will have a button and the more you click the more is added to the form field(s).
Then when you have finished adding products to the form field(s) I want to be able to save and email the entire PDF as an order form.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Jim

Yes, it's possible. The most simple version of such a script will be something like this (used as the button's MouseUp event):
var v = this.getField("Products");
if (f.value!="")
f.value += ", ";
f.value += "Product1";

How do You create menu buttons that move up and down with a remote?

I have six menu items that are linked to their proper locations. When I simulated it a Hand moves over the proper choice then when I click there we go.
But on the DVD simulator you can't navigate. I thought maybe I would bring in one of the templates to use their buttons I can't get my images to replace theirs. Any help appreciated.

Take a look here to make sure buttons are being set properly
http://dvdstepbystep.com/buttons07m.php
And download the movie if you like
I create a button, then set the text and include highlights
I then create another button, then set the text and the include highlights
I then click on the menu and go to the inspector to see colors
RED Normal
BLUE Selected
YELLOW Activated
In simulater I then use the remote control and CANNOT navigate through the buttons
I stop Simulator and then use Auto Assign Buttons Now Command, then relaunch Simulator and get the remote control to work
Make sure to link the button to the track you want to go to.
I thought the issue is that you cannot navigate the buttons with the remote control? If you only have one button on the screen, it will always be selected (Yellow in your project as described)
If it is flashing Megenta and nothing happens, it means a target has not been set (or somehow you are targeting the menu again)
So the only two condiitions you will see is yellow or magenta.

How can you create a button master that can be unlocked but where edits to the master will affect all buttons?

I'm creating a course calendar (January - December) for an organization and courses are repeated several times throughout the year. I've been asked to create this as an interactive pdf rather than as an interactive Indesign document that can be viewed via a browser, so I'm unable to use multi-state objects
Anyway, I've created button masters for such buttons such as previous page/next page, course index and search on my master pages, so that's all fine and dandy as I don't need to move these elements. The way I have set up the calendar is that you click on the course name (a button) and a popup (also a button) shows up with a course description - I want to be able to move these popups so that they are the general vicinity of the course name button and not just floating about in the centre of the calendar.
However, because course descriptions or what is offered in the course change frequently and I am expected to keep the calendar up to date, it doesn't seem efficient to have to manually change every description for a course popup that shows up several times throughout the year or even several times on a month. The issue is that even if I create the popups on the master page, as soon as I unlock them on my month pages and move them to where I want them to be...they'll no longer be affected by changes to the master.
Is there some sort of function like in html/CSS where you can assign a class to a button or something? Or it is something that Indesign isn't capable of and I will just have to do it manually and try to be careful not to miss any courses when they are updated?
Any help is appreciated!

While you could create a different screen for each, a better way to do this is via some form of database. The buttons cause functions to be executed and the functions utilize data resources based on the selections that are established.
So if you pick a particular character, a variable is a assigned a value that indicates that. That variable is then utilized to extract the data associated with the character and to build the screen elements related to the options for that character.

How can you create a table in a proccess on a page?

I am trying to create a new table from an existing table called ICT_PROTIME. The new table needs to be named as the value of a text box on the page called P10_TABLE. If i create a process and use the plsql statement below when i hit the save button i get the error:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "CREATE" when expecting one of the following: begin case declare exit for goto if loop mod null pragma raise return select update while with << close current delete fetch lock insert open rollback savepoint set sql execute commit forall merge pipe
My code:
CREATE TABLE &P10_TABLE. as * from ICT_PROTIME;
I have also tried putting begin befor this line and that doesn't work either?
what am i doing wrong?
Thanks
LT

Hi LT,
You will need to use the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE command and build the DDL dynamically.
eg.
begin
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE X(A DATE)';
end;
Hope this helps.

How do i create a button which will show new content on same page?

Hello,
I hope someone can help.
I have an image; it's a circle with different parts and different colors for each part. I inserted an image in this post.
I want to be able to make a button out of each part (will do this with Photoshop), BUT i want to have a text shown on the right from the wheel if you click on a particle of the circle. So i don't want it to go to a new page, but i want to have a textframe to pop-up when you click. And when you click on a different part of the circle a new text will occur (and the old one won't show).
Hope i made my question clear, english is not my motherlanguage so i'm sorry if my sentences are a bit weird.
Thanks a lot, i hope it can be done with Muse! (This is a big part of the website.)
best regards, bart

Hello,
You can achieve this using a blank compostion widget ot a tooltip widget.
You would need to use "no fill" for the trigger containers so that they are transparent and then place them onto each portion of the image.
Now when user clicks on that portion of the image, the trigger above it gets clicked and in a target container you can have the text displayed.
The only issue here would be that the trigger containers would be of square/rectangular shape so you might not be able place them peroperly to cover all the sections of the image.
Please refer to the video which might be helpful : http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/muse-trigger-target/

How do you create a database so that the PDF forms will populate the database as they are submitted?

I am trying to create PDF forms that will be filled out by multiple members of an organization. I would like them to be submitted electronically and then populate a database so that the data does not need to be reentered into a database.
I generally use Microsoft access but certainly know how to use comma separated values (CSV) or Microsoft Excel.
I currently utilize Acrobat Pro X.

Thanks for the info obviously I will need to watch the videos/tutorials on distributing and tracking documents.

Can you create a button that will go to multiple key frames?

Hi, I am trying to make a rpg style character select interface. What i am trying to do is very similar to the picture below. How do you create a button like the stats, gear, and supplies that will each show a different image or text depending on which character you choose. If noone have played this marvel facebook game before, if you choose for instance Ironman, then the buttons on the right change to stats, bio, and gear. Each character will show a different bio when the bio button is clicked. Do i create a different screen for each character with the same button layout in the same place? I think i just answered my own question but i want to make sure that is possible. Should each character portrait, stats, bio, and gear be on its own layer and have the buttons go to those specific keyframes? thanks

How do you enable 'Create Content' button on 'Add Content' page?

How do you enable ‘Create Content’ button on ‘Add Content’ page?
There is new functionality to a ‘Layout’ type personalization page like ‘Sales Dashboard’.
Bug 4503123 INCONSISTENT WAY OF ADDING USER-DEFINED REGIONS ON WYSIWYG PAGE:
There’s no way to add custom content to a configurable page.
Add a “Create Content” button and let the user create a piece of content that extends to a region he creates.
It says: Fixed->11.5.10.3CU
In Oracle® Application Framework Personalization Guide Release 11i Part No. B25439-02 it says:
p 4-5
If you personalize a non-configurable page (a page that does not have the necessary metadata to personalize its layout) or when you run your application in Accessibility mode (profile option Self Service Accessibility Features (ICX_ACCESSIBILITY_FEATURES) is set to Standard Accessibility), you will not see the Page Layout Personalization page, as shown below. Instead, you will see the Page Hierarchy Personalization page, page 4-12, where you can perform the same personalization functions, using a descriptive tabular user interface.
It tried this and can’t get it to display.
Has anyone run accross this before?

user587952,
Can you describe your issue in detail forgetting those references for the time being. What exactly are you trying to do?
Check this from the dev guide:
In order to be able to take full advantage of page layout personalization capabilities, it is important when you create your configurable page, to use flexibleLayout and flexibleContent regions at all levels when you create the page hierarchy structure under your page layout region. In Oracle Applications, this is required, as it is the coding standard.

How to create a control and add it to a page layput

I am reading the following link :-
http://www.itidea.nl/index.php/what-about-you-must-fill-out-all-required-properties-before-completing-this-action-when-publishing-a-page/
which says that i need to create a control and add it to a page layout. but can anyone help me in understanding how i can create a user control and add them to page layout ?
Thanks

> First problem i could not find a User Control (Farm Solution only) under the Office/SharePoint section
if you mean New item in Visual Studio, then check it under general Web category. User controls are basic ASP.Net functionalities, not Sharepoint-specific. If it is not there, you may use the following trick:
1. Create new project in other VS instance using "ASP.Net Empty Web Application" template
2. Add new user control there (in this project type it should exist for sure under Web category. Called "Web User Control")
3. Copy all user control's files to the folder of your Sharepoint project (ascx, ascx.cs, ascx.designer.cs)
4. In VS instance with Sharepoint project add existing items: all copied user control files. They should be grouped under ascx file automatically after that
> The type or namespace name 'TaxonomyFieldControl' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"
you need to add reference to Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.dll assembly, which is located in the GAC (assume that you have installed Sharepoint on your dev env)

thanks a lot for your help. so can i do the following steps:-
I follow these steps to deploy a user control.
using Visual Studio 2012 , i added a new Farm solution.
then inside the farm solution i added a new User Control(Farm Solution Only).
3. inside the user control i entered the following code:-
using Microsoft.SharePoint;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls;
using System;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
namespace WikiPopUp.ControlTemplates.WikiPopUp
[ToolboxData("<{0}:CustomValidationRequiredFieldsOnPage runat=server></{0}:CustomValidationRequiredFieldsOnPage>")]
public class CustomValidationRequiredFieldsOnPage : WebControl
protected override void CreateChildControls()
base.CreateChildControls();
if (SPContext.Current.FormContext.FormMode == SPControlMode.Edit)
bool arethere = AreThereAnyMissingRequiredFieldsOnPage();
if (arethere)
//SPPageStateControl:
//Provides an ASP.NET control that handles the Ribbon buttons controlling the state of a Microsoft SharePoint Server wiki or publishing page,
//such as the CheckInCheckOutButton or the PublishingButton.
SPPageStateControl baseParentStateControl = Page.Items[typeof(SPPageStateControl)] as SPPageStateControl;
//Publish button: SPListItem MissingRequiredFields checks this.FieldHasValue(link.Name, field);
//the field is empty (which is right) when the page is first created (MMD field is never filled in)
//when the field was once filled, saved and emptied the field in sp code still has the previous value and the check MissingRequiredFields succeeds
//after succeeding this check the page is validated (this.Page.Validate()) and this one fails which results SP validating the page as the Save button does
if (baseParentStateControl.HasError)
//this overwrites the previous PageErrorState
//and validates the page
//no popup anymore and status updates in yellow area
baseParentStateControl.EnsureItemSavedIfEditMode(false);
else
//there are missing fields at this listitem, but they're not on the page
//do nothing here, because the SerializedErrorState contains the navigate url to the Edit Properties page
//and a message pops up
/// <summary>
/// Check if required fields are missing which are present at the page
/// </summary>
/// <returns></returns>
private static bool AreThereAnyMissingRequiredFieldsOnPage()
foreach (Control control in SPContext.Current.FormContext.FieldControlCollection)
//get the control type
string type = control.GetType().Name;
FieldTypes controlType = (FieldTypes)Enum.Parse(typeof(FieldTypes), type);
switch (controlType)
case FieldTypes.TaxonomyFieldControl:
TaxonomyFieldControl tfc = control as TaxonomyFieldControl;
if (!tfc.IsValid)
return true;
break;
default:
break;
return false;
enum FieldTypes
DateTimeField, FieldValue, TextField, RichImageField, NoteField, RichHtmlField, PublishingScheduleFieldControl, TaxonomyFieldControl, BooleanField, ComputedField
4. i add a reference for the Sharepoint.taxnomy
5. then i deploy the solution to my site collection. and now i can see the new solution inside the farm solution under central administration.
but not sure if these are all the required steps to register the user control or still i need to do extra steps ?

How do I create a button in AS3?

Hello Everyone
How do I create a button in action script 3 and handle the click event?
Thanks

Maybe this will help you get started.
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.Graphics;
var button:Sprite = new Sprite(); //Sprite to act as the button graphic.
//Set the color of the button graphic
button.graphics.beginFill(0xFFCC00);
//Set the X,Y, Width, and Height of the button graphic
button.graphics.drawRect(10, 10, 200, 60);
button.graphics.endFill(); //Apply the fill
this.addChild(button); //Add Button Sprite to stage
button.useHandCursor = true;
button.buttonMode = true;
button.mouseChildren = false;
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClickHandler);
function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
trace("Button clicked!");

I need to create a button that add "1" to a number box in "numbers" program

hi
I making an inventory list that often being change.
I want to create a button that "add 1" and a button that "reduce 1" so i can adjust it faster
how can i do it ?
thanks

Hi Yaniv,
With a single Stepper, I can't see how you can make it refer to different cells in your *locked* inventory.
Maybe this will work. Old Inventory (2012), then a mirror table with Steppers for every cell, then New Inventory (2013) with formulas to add or subtract Stepper values. Old and New inventories are locked. Stepper Table is not locked. That is where you enter the changes.
Formula in B2 of the 2013 Inventory is
=Inventory 30 June 2012 :: B2+Add or subtract :: B2
Where the Stepper Table is called "Add or Subtract".
Fill Down and Right.
Regards,
Ian
