How to provide text formatting options to user from a text field

Hi,
My requirement is - in the interactive form, a comments field needs to be provided where user should be able to enter text with formatting options like
Headers
indentations
bold/italic
bullet points and numbers
Once user enters the formatted texts in a text field, data needs to be displayed/printed in the same format. Could you help me on how to provide these formatting options to the user for a particular text field?
I understand that once I define the text field with format XHTML (with RTF), user formatting can be captured and displayed in the same way. But I am not sure on how to provide the formatting options for the text field.
Thank you,
Madhu

Hi,
if you select a text field for Rich Text and the press Ctrl + E you'll get a bar for all available text formatting options in Acrobat/Reader.

  • Text formatting options

    Hi,
    Is there a list somewhere which outlines more text formatting options than what is shown in the FAQ?
    In particular I'm wondering how to make text that does not suppress white space other than using the "code" tag.
    Also, the insert link option a shown above does not seem to work, or am I just stupid?
    Thanks.

    Instead, I'm using [ url=<insert link here> ] text [ /url ] (without the extra spaces in tags). Normal html link tag might work as well.

  • How can I create a form for users wherein the text field will expand to accommodate additional text?

    How can I create a form for users wherein the text field will expand to accommodate additional text?

    You need to use LiveCycle (PC Only) to create a dynamic form like that.
    The best you can do with Acrobat to view all of the text in a field is to set the field to multiline, and set the size to "Auto" (If you don't set the size to 'Auto', you can enter as much text as you wish, but the user will need to use the scrollbar to view all of the text.)

  • In BI how to filter the selection options based on inputs on top field

    Hi Friends,
    In BI, How to filter the selection options based on inputs on top field.
    The system should automatically filter the lower level drop downs based on the selection of a higher level.
    For e.g. :
    If a user selects a Country then the States drop down should only display the State's belongs to the Country. Similarly when a State is selected, the District drop down should display only those District's belongs to the State.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Can I text to none ios users from my ipad?

    An iPad is not a phone and does not have built in Texting capability. You can iMessage other iPad, iPhone users but iMessages will not reach non Apple devices. There are some apps in the App Store that provide some level of text messaging. Search the App Store.

  • How can SAP be configured to prevent users from consuming locks?

    How can SAP be configured to prevent users from consuming locks?
    The issue is that we want to prevent users to use upto maximum locks and so that we will not get lock table overflow issue. I know that we can assign parameter "enque/table_size" a good amount of value. But it is not for any specific user.
    Also want to alert in CCMS if any user reaches to its maximum speficified limit of locks.
    Thanks
    Gopesh

    You cannot set a limit of locks per user. There are two ways to reduce/control the number of locks:
    - change fewer records within one transaction
    - cover more records with one lock using wildcards
    Basically it is an application / development issue.

  • Why can't i send or receive text messages to some users from my iPad while there is no problem texting them from my iPhone?

    Why can't I send or receive text messages to some users from my iPad mini while there is no problem texting them from my iPhone?

    With the Apple iMessage app, You can only Message with other iOS users - iPads, iPod Touch, iPhone users and Macs running Mountain Lion or higher. With your iPhone, you can send standard SMS text messages to any phone, including Android phones.
    The iPad cannot send SMS messages or receive them either.

  • How do I fix the problems with text formating functions in hotmail and other text based sites?

    In a Mailing list provider site it disables the text formating functions, instead only showing a 'loading' message. The functions never appear. In Hotmail the scroll arrows on the right hand side does not work. Sometimes the email toolbar becomes 'grey' and the buttons do not work. When forwarding an email sometimes the email does not show in the new email message.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Firefox was reinstalled March 2010.

    The only possible fix was turning the phone off immediately and burying it in a bag of dry rice for a week at least. That might...just might...have worked.  But you're way beyond that and I see no fixes.  In fact the phone is probably going to get more problems before finally gving up the ghost.  Continued use is just shorting out more and more of the circuitry.  For that reason I don't think repair is much of an option. Go to an Apple Store and buy an out-of-warranty replacement.

  • How to make default personalization options for users

    Hi all,
    How can I make default personalization options for users, so that those will the default options when the user opens the portal BSP applications. Those will be the standard, at later point of time if they want they can personlalize some other fields, but earlier fields will be the default fields and user cant be able to change them.
    Thanks
    Murthy

    Hi Murthy,
    If you use IMG (crmc_blueprint_c) to customize PCUI appl than you can use the personalization feature. If you select 'Not in List' in the IMG for the field in the fieldgroup structure, than this field by default will not be viewable in the List View and will not be checked as 'Visible' in the Personilzation link. So by not selecting 'Not in List' you are giving that field to be viewable and all other fields are available for users to personalize by default.
    If you have maintained the 'List View' using the CRM Designer, than most likely you would lose the above feature, as SAP Standard code considers the CRM Designer as high level of customization.
    Thanks

  • How to prevent user from changing a field on a Form.

    I have a form and a report on the same page. The form is used to set criteria for the report. So after the criteria is entered on the form a button is clicked, which passes the criteria to the report. The form also displays some additional data based on the criteria, i.e. I do a query on the form.
    The problem I'm having is preventing the user from changing the additional data which is displayed. I tried all the wizzard options; i.e. not updatable, not insertable etc. but the user can still change the data.
    The only options seems to be writting some Java code for one of the triggers, but I haven't written any Java before.
    So I was wondering if anyone has a non-Java solution for this problem or an example of a Java program I could use to solve the problem.
    Thanks for any help
    Larry

    Hi,
    Suppose you want Empno, Sal fields of Employee table as Query only and all other fields user updateable then
    uncheck all the three check boxes
    Mandatory , Updatable , Insertable under validation options for those fields.
    When you run the form, these fields appear as text items in query mode and will appear labels once the querying done.
    Hope it works

  • How do you import a list of users from a file? (BPC 7.5NW)

    In adding users from a network domain, the related personnel filter provides three choices.  One of the choices allows a BPC administrator to import a list of users from file.  For some reason, the radio button alongside that option is grey and the choice is inoperable.  Does anyone know what steps-configuration or later-must be taken to make this choice operable and to be able to import the list of users from a file?

  • How To Block a User From Changing Total Field In AR Invoice

    Hi all,
    I would like to find out how to block a user from being able to change the total field at the bottom right hand side of the AR Invoice.  Currently if a user creates an invoice and is still busy in that invoice they can adjust the total field which in turn will update the discount field as well.
    Is this simply an authorization issue or am I going to have to do it in the transaction notification?
    We are using SAP Business One PL 30 currently.

    Hi
    Please review by note again -This is by system design .
    I don't know why you are so worried abt this because by setting up discount max ,if user cannot post the document ,that means it is not in the system ,no matter they change multiple times in the fields .
    But I think your scenario is different ,
    You are copying with certain discount from Delivery to AR invoice and i think you don't want user to change the discount field , then you can solve your issue by using approval or sp_notification
    If you really want it to be greyed out ,I think you might have to go through by SDK or Boyum addon.
    Thank you

  • How do you safely and quickly move users from one mailstore to another?

    In our current NMS configuration we have our clients spread across 4 mailstores (mstore0-mstore3). The current stores are filling up and we need to move some clients from each existing store to a new one (mstore4). MoveUser will move the users but seems very slow given the number of clients and messages will have to move. Is there any better method and as important has anyone else done anything similar and would share experiences?

    Hi,
    MoveUser is the safe and better way for moving the user.
    Please mention from which version you are migrating users from different store.
    hope the following link will help you

  • Giving report format option to user while calling from Menu?

    Dear Gurus....How can we give our user the choice to choose the report format while it is being called from a drop-down menu (mmb file)? Plzzz be careful that giving the Desformat parameter on report parameter form is not a good option here. I'm looking someway to pass this optional parameter from the calling form or menu.

    Dear Magoo...I meant that I've a program unit (procedure) which takes all the required information to run a report (including report file name, parameters if necessary, destination, server name etc and report desformat). Initially I was giving the user a Poplist on entry forms to choose the report desformat and then passed it to the procedure to call a report. Now I've attached the reports on menu (mmb file) and attached that procedure to menu calling the report. but when I'm placing the poplist on the form to which menu is attached, then procedure gives the error of bad bind variable/expression due to that poplist. Is there anything wrong from my side? Got my words magoo?
