Interactive PDF show/hide button not working properly

I could use some help. I'm creating an interactive pdf using show hide buttons. A button is set to hidden and a second button controls it's visible on mouse enter and mouse exit. Sometimes these buttons which are set to visible turn to invisible in the general/form field propery window and stop working. I've tried replacing the buttons with new ones, but this hasn't helped. Is this a bug or do you think the document is corrupt. This is a large prototype file which has to be shown to a client and rebuilding it is not a welcome thought.
Is there a way to program this using java to create this function? (I'm a Java novice.)
Thanks

HI PAUL, WE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. SO, IF YOUR USING INDESIGN CS2 OR 3 WE HAVE FOUND THAT BY MAKING A NEW BUTTON WITH ALL THE ACTIONS YOU WANT IN A NEW DOCUMENT ON THE MASTER PAGE AND THEN COPYING AND PASTING THE NEW BUTTON INTO YOUR ORIGINAL FILE ONTO THE PAGE MASTER THIS USUALLY SOLVES THE PROBLEM.

  • Interactive PDF Layer Visibility Buttons Not Working On iPad

    I've created a document in Indesign CS6 and exported the layers to pdf. I created a button in acrobat pro to change a layers visibility. The pdf is intended to be viewed on an iPad and the button wont work. It does however work perfectly on my desktop. Does anybody have a work around?

    There is little to none support for scripts and other advanced features of PDF files on iOS devices, unfortunately.

  • Interactive PDF Form Submit Button Not Working

    Hi there,
    I created an Interactive PDF in InDesign with a form included in the document. When I export as an interactive PDF my Adobe Reader will allow me to fill out the form no problem, however, when I click submit to connect the form to my email, it says "operation not permitted". Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

    Reader prior to version 11 cannot save the document unless it is Reader-enabled, which you can do with Acrobat. Exactly how depends on which version you're using. In Acrobat 11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools

  • Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Reader X Pro (Editable PDF Combobox Search is not working properly.)

    I have created Editable PDF using itext(5.3.0) in java. I have used Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Reader X Pro.  But in editable PDF combobox search is  not working properly.
    It's only search first character.

    My (admittedly old and slow) system did this too the first time I opened Reader 11, but it "unfroze" after about fifteen seconds, (an eternity in computing time, I know, but it did eventually open all the way) What you're seeing on the right is the "Tools" panel initializing. That's exactly where mine would freeze up on starting. Once it did finally open fully, I clicked the "Tools" link at the top to close the panel, and I opened and viewed a document that way, then closed reader. Now when I open Reader, the Tools panel doesn't initialize and it opens immediately.
    Reboot and before you open anything else, open Reader. When you open it, DO NOT try to do anything with it until it fully opens, don't click anything, don't try to switch to another app. Give it time to open fully, and then click the Tools link to close it. Then, open and view a document, and close it. Close Reader and reopen it. the Tools panel should remain closed and Reader should open fully immediately.

  • Show hiide Buttons not working in andorid OS and windows mobile OS

    Hi,
    I made a file in Indesign CS6. This file has a map with dots on it. When a user clicks a dot, an info box pops up giving info about that dot. He clicks the box to make it dissappear and can click another dot for the next info.  I achieved this using the hide and show feature of buttons and exported using interactive Pdf. The file works fine on a windows Pc but it does not work on andorid or windows mobile platform. How can I make it work for both?

    I assume that you're talking about Show-Hide Fields in an interactive PDF. It's not likely that it will work given the limitations of most PDF readers on mobile devices.
    I'm a user of an iPad and iPhone, and haven't worked with Android or Windows devices but I think the issues are the same on all platforms. Some PDF readers are better than others. You didn't say what PDF reader you were testing on.
    Here are two articles I've written about the frustrations of getting interactivity to work on mobile devices, in this case, an iPad:
    http://indesignsecrets.com/for-interactive-pdf-not-all-readers-are-equal.php
    http://indesignsecrets.com/navigation-button-tricks-for-interactive-pdf-on-an-ipad.php
    The best PDF reader for iOS devices is PDF Expert, but I don't believe that exists for Android or Windows devices. I can view interactivity that Adobe Reader doesn't support.

  • Button not working properly.

    Hi I bought my new HP Envy k112tx its capslock button is not working properly when pressed softly. It has to be pressed hard so that it could work, Its minor.What should i do?.

    if it's not bugging you then you can safely just leave it, there is a small risk of causing damage to the keyboard though. If you contact HP they may be able to replace the keyboard for you unless it's less than 30 days old then you should be able to return it for a replacement unit, you'll still need to contact HP first though cause that's where the retailer will refer you to straight away

  • Bootcamp 3.2: Microsoft Virtual WiFi MiniPort Adapter shows "device is not working properly...Code 31"

    Using Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter shows the "device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31).".The device is the Apple iMac10,1 All-in-one computer. Right clicking browse files (for the device) shows the Bootcamp (C:), DVD (D:); and my external hard drives can be selected.
    Internet and WiFi connections all working ok. Am also running MacDrive 8 to access the Mac drives when in the Windows partition, again without any seeming issues.
    Updating the driver simply generates another Code 31 error.
    Appreciate this seems to be a known problem - is the a solution a novice use might be able to follow or should I simply ignore the error message?
    Driver Date us 21/06/2006 and Driver Version is 6.1.7600.16385.

    Hi  ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. It is a great site for information and questions. I have looked into your issue about your HP ENVY 4-1204tx Ultrabook and issues with WiFi adapter is not working properly. Error codes in Device Manager in Windows  8.1 could be fixed by deleting any extra drivers. So I would uninstall all that is listed in the Network drivers in the Device Manager, restart the Notebook. Here is a list of Device Manager options, this might help.
    Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating or reinstalling. Hope this helps. Thanks.

    It is quite unclear what you are saying. Are you saying you have a button which you have called "Print"? Does this button call Reports to generate a pdf file? What product versions are you using? Do not say "10g" or "9i" as these are product names. Please provide the complete product versions and tell us what platforms (operating systems) you are using for client and server.

  • Why are my PalPal buttons not working properly after working fine for weeks?

    I have not touched the site till I heard there was a problem today. The dropdowns are not showing up.
    https://www.appne.net/events.html
    Sometimes if I hit refresh or republish the site, they show up again. then after testing to see if they work, they disappear again.
    I just upgraded to the April 2 release to see if it helps and it did not.
    I talked to paypal and tested the buttons on their testing website and they worked fine.
    I did not use the widget in Muse to create...I cut and paste the code from paypal.com button creator.
    Anyone else having the same issue?
    Please help if so. Thank you!

  • Page navigation buttons not working properly

    Hi,
    I am having a multilingual Java Application (e.g. English, Japanese, French...).  In this application there are reports which display the data using locale parameter (like en_US, ja_JP etc.) to display the data in selected language.
    The problem comes up when I see Japanese reports on English operating system machine and vice versa.
    When I click any button of page navigation it changes the page number but does not load and display the page accordingly.
    It's like when I run the report it displays the first page, then clicking on Next button brings 2 in navigation field but the report  would still show first page, same happens for 3, 4.... all pages. 
    The other navigation buttons also do not work, they change the page number but display only the first page.
    This problem does not occur when I see Japanese reports on Japanese OS machine and English reports on English OS machine.
    However my clients need the first case, Japanese reports should work on English OS machine also.
    Please advise urgenly.

    Hi,
    I resolved the above issue by removing the call to method setProductLocale in jsp file (which was really unnecessary in code as product locale is meant to set languange for crystal report design environment ).
    Actually the problem was I had set locale at two place
                    1. using setLocale method of ReportClientDocument object) after the initialization of report client document object
                    2. using setProductLocale method of CrystalReportViewer object after the initialization of Crystal Report Viewer  object
    After commenting out code for setProductLocale, reports in all languages and all their functionalities started working 100% perfectly.
    Thanks.
