Is there a way to link text fields in an interactive form in ID CS6?
I'm recreating a form where they had several text fields on top of each other. If the form were not interactive, that would be so the user could use it to fill out longer, more detailed responses to the questions.
But since it's supposed to be interactive, I question the need for this, unless I could link them somehow, so that a user's long answer would flow from one field to the next as needed.
Is there a way to do that? Or would it work better to combine the 3 text fields into one big text field?
If the latter, is there a way to change a text field back into a text or picture box? I can't seem to find that option.
You cannot link PDF fields to each other.
Make a text field Multiline and Scrollable to allow for extra input (in Acrobat, but not in InDesign, you can also set a limit on the number of characters).
As I said elsewhere, choose Object > Interactive > Convert to Object to change a field to a regular object.

I often use Acrobat Pro to create forms, whether it be from an existing document or from scratch, and this has always irritated me. I know you can create a text field and select the Multi-line option; however, this is not what I am looking to do. I have a form that has a Yes or No Radio Button, then below it says "If yes, please explain:" followed by 3 lines to respond. When I run it through the Form Creator, it places three text fields on the response lines - as it should. The first line is shorter because of the text, which is why I cannot use the Multi-line option. So is there a way to link these three text fields, so that when I reach the end of the first line it stops and automatically moves to the next?
Here is a picture of what I am looking at:These types of lines are a left-over from printed forms. There's no reason
to keep using them if your form is digital.
The best approach is to combine the fields to a single multiline field, and
get rid of the first line. Trying to link text fields together is very
tricky. I haven't yet to see it done properly. -

Changing the background of a text field in adobe interactive forms
Hello All,
Is there any way to change the background colour of text field in interactive form dynamically.??
Thanks,Naresh,
Change the language to JavaScipt in Script Editor of LiveCycle Designer and use the following code to highlight the area of TextField where R,G,B means that you have to give the RGB values of the color you want.
<YourTextFieldName>.border.edge.color.value = "R,G,B";
For eg:- If you have a textfield with name TextField1 then this will highlight the TextField1 area in red color.
if ((TextField1.rawValue==null) || (TextField1.rawValue==""))
TextField1.border.edge.color.value = "255,0,0";
You can use this on exit event of Textfield1 or at the submit button where you check the form data.

Is there a way to link text boxes in pages 5?
The previous version, 4.3 allowed easy linking of textboxes. This made creation of booklets simple, without having to resort to desktop publishing programs. Does anyone know how to link in 5.0?
Feature removed by Apple along with a 100 others.
Pages '09 is still in your Applications/iWork folder. Use that.
Also rate/review Pages 5 in the App Store.

Is there a way to create a field with total pages viewed?
Is there a way to create a field for a contact that stores the total # of pages he has ever viewed? We'd like to use this as a bases for lead scoring.
Please don't use big red text. There's no need to do so - it won't be more attention and in fact may put people off of helping - and it's really difficult to read.
Adding to what JG said, you can also purchase a prepaid iTunes card, available from most grocery store and discount chains in the US and other countries, and use that. You will need to enter in your address information, but you won't need a credit card.

Is Pages 5.0.1 is there any way to link one Pages document to another Pages document? If so, Please, How?
Well, you could trade it in for a white one!
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes." -

Is there a way to link PSD's?
Let's say I'm making flyers or a catalog in Photoshop.
I want to be able to have a separate PSD for each flyer or page in the catalog.
I also want to have a "master" PSD that contains the background only. The other PSD's will have each page's text and no background.
Is there a way to "link" the PSD's so that the background in each page is linked to the "master" so that if I change the master, all the other backgrounds change as well?Only thing with Layer Comps is that it works within a single PSD... You don't have the flexibility of maintaining information in separate PSD files as far as I know.
Now for some reason I'm struck with the urge to order a pizza...

Is there a way to link state buttons?
Hi, I'd like to know if there's a way to link state buttons to activate their hover state together. For instance, when the link 'Pioneers of Design' is hovered over it turns red and links to another page. The yellow image loses the 25% white opaque screen on it when it's in hover state and also links to the same page. Both are in separate state buttons. Is there a way to link the two so that when I hover over the image the screen disappears but also turns the pioneers link red at the same time and vice versa when hovering over the pioneers link? I know both can be put into a state button together but that means that the massive space in between the image and text would create the hover state as apposed to only occurring when hovering over one or the other. Also, I don't know what would happen to this because the text links stay fixed when scrolling and the image links do not. Is there a way to do what I'm talking about? Thanks.
I have the latest version of Muse CC 2014There's no built-in way to do disjointed rollovers, but if you look it up on the web, you should be able to understand how the respective CSS rules work and implement them as custom HTML or after publishing the site.

Is there a way of saving text messages on my iphone? On my old phone, I could send them to a separate folder. As the messages link on this phone, I've found myself deleting messages that contained important infor from previous conversations and I need to get it back!
Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

I've had an Apple ID under an old email address. I have a new Apple ID under my current email. Is there a way to link or merge the two together? I don't remember the old password and that email address is no longer active. If I cannot link or merge the two, how can I activate the old ID on the new computer if that email account is no longer active?? Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance!!
You cannot merge accounts.
You need to sign into the old account on your computer.
