How to clear a text field when another is selected

Ok I'm new at this, so please forgive me...
I have a form that has the following
a text field that is a dollar amount (eg @1,000)
another text field that has the cents value (eg .00)
and then
a text field that has a % amount (eg 100%)
I only won't the user to fill in one of the options,
either the dollar and cents amount
OR the % amount.
I don't won't them to be able to enter text into both options and once they click on one option I want the other to clear if there is any text entered into that field.
I hope that makes sense, any helpful information would be greatly appreciated!!

Sorry..I figured it out. Thanks.

How to clear text fields when the user navigates back to the screen

Hi,
Does anyone have any idea on how to clear the text input fields and dropdown boxes when the user navigates back to the screen, say for e.g. create screen?
My issue is that i have plenty of fields in the create screen within a form. Is there a way to avoid programaticaly blanking out every field and just do it at the form level using an api to reset to a state before the user entry?
Thanks

This code allows you to make it more generic, and you would need to tweak it if there are more than TextInput controls, but it should provide some ideas.
As far as using states, you could use SetProperty to set the text to empty, but that might be messier.

How do I auto populate the date into text fields when form is first opened?

Hello,
I read all about the changing the scripts but its not really working for me. I was hoping someone could help me with directions on how to auto populate the date into designated text fields when my adobe document is first opened?
I am working in Adobe Acrobat 9.
Thank you,
Sheri

When you add a new document JavaScript (Advanced > Document Processing > Document JavaScripts > Script Name (enter something) > Add), you will be given a function skeleton by default. Just delete it and enter the line of code I showed above. Now, whenever the document is opened, the code will get triggered and the field will be updated with the current date. There is no "Document Open" action (at least that's accessible via Acrobat's UI), but this is effectively the same thing since any document-level JavaScripts are executed when the document is opened.

Hi,
You can clear it manually using F-03. In that T-Code it is a manual clearing and not automatic clearing...so you can select any line items you want to clear, only thing is that their balance should be Zero.

How to collapse unused text field in PDF form

I don't think w/o UI Customization it is possible.
UI customization won't be a small one as it is a common wizard and used at multiple places. So it will be a huge work.

This is a user to user support forum. We are all iphone users just like you.
You are not addressing Apple here at all.
This is an odd way to ask your fellow iphone users for help. Berating oterh users will not help you.
"it's too fragile"
No it is not. i have never damaged one, nor has anyone I know.
" U loose data when Ur phone is locked"
No you don't. Why do you think this?
"and there is no customer support!!! "
Wrong yet again. Apple has an 800 number and they have many retail stores and they have support articles that you can access using the search bar. Or you can contact them throgh express lane online

Please do.

HI user560737,
After over 170 post still
a. No Forms version
b. No friendly handle
c. Inadequate and incomprehensible description
Perhaps one or more of the following are true
1. Members of this forum are not equipped to help you.( So, why bother to post?)
2. You are not appreciative of the help being extended to you, in the form of marking posts helpful / correct
3. You do not articulate and follow through on your post.
How else can one explain

Position cursor in text field when form is opened

Another newbee question I'm afraid!
I want to position the cursor in a text field when a user opens the form. I can't find a way to do it but I'm pretty sure it's straightforward!
Also, can I remove fields from the tab order?
Thanks (for your help and patience!)

Hi,
You would select the object that you want to receive focus and put the following in the docReady event.
xfa.host.setFocus("this");
The docReady event is a good one to use, because it only fires once.
The tab order can be set in the Tab Order tab. Depending on the version of LC Designer that you have, the flexibility will vary. However I would do this as a last step, as any changes can throw the tab order out of sequence.
Note that tab order is greatly affected by the relevant x/y coordinates of objects and where objects are in separate subforms.
Hope this helps,
Niall

How to access the Text Frame, when we use scrollable frame,

Hi Friends,
How to access the Text Frame, when we use scrollable frame,
Thank you,
[ Nav ]

That's the same question:
how can I access something (a page item) on a page…
Answer: you need something unique in that object you can get a handle on.
Or you use the selection a user of your script is doing and work with that selection…
A "scrollable frame" is nothing special. What it makes it a "scrollable frame" is the DPS software.
So you have to look for attached labels on the object, that identify the object for the PDS plug-in "Overlay Creator" as a "scrollable frame". That's possible with the "extractLabel("KeyString")" function. But you need to know the appropriate key-string in advance.
In another of your thread in the DPS forum, I basically answered the question how to obtain those key-strings.
When knowing the key-string you could loop through all your page items (you can skip all text frames) in the allPageItems-collection, to identify the "scrollable frame" by extracting the right label.
If you have more than one "scollable frames" you need a second unique identifier for the particular object.
That could be nearly any property.
Keep in mind, there is no "scrollableFrames" collection in the DOM !

How to script text field based on checkbox selection

I've written a script to format specific text boxes based on what checkbox is chosen. However, I'm not sure what I need to script in order to CLEAR the text field once the checkbox is unchecked. As it stands now if the checkbox is selected it formats the text field with the necessary information, but if it's unchecked the information stays in the box. I'd like to be something like 'if all boxes are Off then display 0.00.' I've included the current script for reference
var one = this.getField("Emp 500");
var two = this.getField ("Emp+C500");
var three = this.getField("Emp+S500");
var four = this.getField("Fam500");
var five = this.getField("NC500");
var six = this.getField("Medical");
if (one.value == 'Yes') {six.value='70.70'}
else if (two.value ==
'Yes') {six.value='127.20'}
else if (three.value == 'Yes') {six.value='141.32'}

How to add new text field in standard report

how to add new text field in standard report?

Hi,
I presume you are talking about a report display in ALV and u wish to add a column to it .
If it is a global requirement ,as in table being used there in ALV can be modified, then you can append the table and the system should pick up the same automatically from there.
Otherwise , you can make a Z program . Modify the catalog being used in ALV.

Hello Pabitra,
I had a similar issue in my Project.
Please verify if the SMOD enhancement MBCF0002 (EXIT_SAPMM07M_001) is active in your system.
If this is the case, verify from two angles:
a) Whether the Enhancement was accidentally activated - If yes, then De-activate the same
b) If there is some logic coded in the User Exit, but, the Text is somehow not determined...even the existing content in the text field (input to EXIT_SAPMM07M_001) will get vanished.
Hope that your problem will be resolved by this. Pls reward points.
With Regards
