Keeping a field visible

Is this a bug?
I have a form that has a lot of HIDDEN fields that are made visible when certain criteria are met. This function is working perfectly. Initially!
However when the form is submitted by e-Mail (either PDF or XML) or saved as, all of these fields become HIDDEN again... even though the criteria is still there. It becomes necessary to deselect and reselect the various objects to make the fields and their data visible again.
Or am I missing something? Is there a method to lock a field down so it remains visible (and stays that way) when data is present???
This is some sample JS used on a check box:
if(this.rawValue == "1")
HIDDEN_subLivelink.presence = "visible";
HIDDEN_sprLivelinkOW.presence = "visible";
HIDDEN_sprLivelinkOW2.presence = "visible";
else
HIDDEN_subLivelink.presence = "hidden";
HIDDEN_sprLivelinkOW.presence = "hidden";
HIDDEN_sprLivelinkOW2.presence = "hidden";

Hi
You can study the VPD and aplied as said .
But as an alternate ,if u u can manage user list then u can try Decode function to show filed data or null for user login,
eg decode(user,scott,sal,null).
this way other user can not see value.
further if u do not want to show blank data then use exception or condition to filter further.
have a try ,

PDF created in InDesign -Field Visibility Issues in LifeCycle

I am working with pdf versions of brochures created in InDesign/Illustrator etc. I am adding two simple fields to these forms and in the past it has worked easily. I have an image field where a logo can be uploaded and a text field next to it. Behind the image field I have always used another text field visible on screen but not in print That simply states, "place logo here". This A.M. I had an update from Adobe that installed and now if I designate the field as visible on screen, it prints. This is the simplest of forms and I am wondering if I may have inadvertantly changed a setting somewhere along the way that has deactivated this option.

Yes, I have added cropmarks and page info to the pdf.
I checked the separations in Acrobat Pro with a friend. Both Pantone colors and CMYK show up. When I disable the CMYK, nothing of the design disappears (cropmarks and page info don't disappear either, they seem to be in both Pantone and CMYK).
I saved a new pdf, without crops and page info, and CMYK still shows up in the separations.
I'll contact the printer tomorrow, I'm pretty sure he should be able to use the file I sent him.
Thank you all for your help!

A question about keeping screen field unchangable in selection screen

Hello Expert,
I have a program as below.
REPORT Z_TEST.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-i01.
SELECT-OPTIONS: s_kappl FOR a017-kappl DEFAULT 'M' NO INTERVALS.
SELECTION-SCREEN: END OF BLOCK b1.
INITIALIZATION.
LOOP AT SCREEN.
    IF screen-name CS 'KAPPL'.
      screen-input = 0.
      MODIFY SCREEN.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
When I executed the report, the field for S_KAPPL is unchangable. This is as expected. But if I select one variant, the filed will change back to changable.
My question is how can I keep the field unchangable after I select variant?
Thanks in advance,
Regards, Johnny

Hello Johnny,
When you're creating the variant you've to mark the check-box "Protect field" as true.
This will make the field as output only.

"How to keep the field open for input with error message in report program"
Regards,
C.Shasiraj.

Hi...
you have to use the event:
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON <FIELD> EVENT.
u have to give an error message in this event.
Consider the following Example:
PARAMETERS : NUMBER TYPE I.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON NUMBER.
IF NUMBER = 10.
MESSAGE 'Number vakue is 10' TYPE 'E'.
ENDIF.
START-OF-SELECTION.
WRITE NUMBER.

in this if u give the value of number = 10, it will not proceed further, if u give some other value other than 10 you will proceed further...
Execute this program once u will understand....
also Consider the following links :

How can I keep the field in the same page

How can I keep the field in master frame in the same page of the detail frame?
They are in the different pages sometimes?
Thank you.

I believe the OP has a question similar to mine...
I have several groups, and the master for each group is only one line, and the detail is between 1 and five lines, like so:
A
A1
A2
B
B1
C
C1
C2
C3
...The problem is, sometimes only the master record gets printed at the bottom of the page, and then the detail is printed at the top of the next page. I don't need each group on it's own page. I just want to be sure that if the detail can't fit on the page with the master, then I want the master to only print on the next page.
Can you help with this?

Keeping the Menu visible after an action is performed.

I'm trying to capture the right click events on JMenuItems and display popup menu options for the selected JMenuItem. I've managed to capture the right click and get the Popup ready; however, when the right click is performed, or any other type of "action", the Menu dissappears. How can I keep the menu visible?

The following code should prevent the menu from closing on a right click:
     class RightClickJMenuItem extends JMenuItem
          public RightClickJMenuItem(String str)
               super(str);
          protected void processMouseEvent(MouseEvent e)
               if (e.getModifiers() != MouseEvent.BUTTON3_MASK)
                    super.processMouseEvent(e);
     }

No "Keep Appointments" field in my calendar options

I am trying to limit the number of past appointments my calendar keeps on my 8100; the user guide and all support docs say to set this in the Calendar menu>Options>Keep Appointments field, but there is no Keep Appointments field in my Options menu. Can anyone help?

Reminders is a separate app from Calendars.
Appointments are in Calendar and remonders are in Reminder.

DW CS5 Mac10.7.x: keep DW windows visible when DW not at front?

When DW is the front-most app, all currently-open DW windows are visible.
Switch to another app, including the Finder, all DW windows disappear.
Any way to change this behavior? Any way to keep DW windows visible when it is not the front-most (active) app?
Why do I ask? For one thing, as it stands, I find it very difficult to document something that's going on in DW, say in a forum -- this one!
TIA

After installing the extension (mentioned in original post), i got the option of 'Markup' and the CF option has gone. Now, validating 'Marku'p works but 'As XML' still freezesDW.
Seems to be a known bug... Here's the thread:

But are they different document types? When you create a new document are you trying different types like XHTML 1.1, HTML5, HTML4, etc? The more details you can provide the more likely the problem will be fixed. Currently I am using CS5.5 on a Mac and the validation works for me in multiple types so the more you can tell Adobe when you submit the bug report the better.

Duplicate content of region fields in the region and keep some fields

duplicate content of region fields in the region and keep some fields displayed in this region and some not.
Our customer wants to duplicate the content of the region fields and 3 fields of this region (one of them is the key from the table ) have to be shown empty and have to be recreated when he does the next commit. The other 25 fields have to be filled with the content before. (I have to do a commit before I show the region again without these three fields)
What I did:
When I have a botton with request CHANGE then APEX does the change without emptying the fields. I tried to make processes on this request which should empty my three fields, but the processes never fire (I see it in the debug and I don't know why, I putted them on every process point for testing)
The second try:
On my button with request CHANGE , I filled the 'set these items ' with my three fields and the 'with these items' with 2 commas ,, to set these items null.
I do no claer cache, but APEX empties the hole region.
Can you help me??
Thanks Uta

Hi Uta,
OK - This is what I did:
1 - Page 15
On the EMPNO column, I have a link to page 18. I set P18_EMPNO to #EMPNO#. I assume that you already have this functionality to link from the report page to the form page. There are no changes required to this page.
2 - Page 18
I have created a hidden field called "P18_EMPNO_COPY". There are no special settings for this item - I've just put it at the bottom of the region containing all of the other items
I have created a button called "P18_COPY". This has a Conditional Display set with a Condition Type of Value of Item in Expression 1 IS NOT NULL and Expression 1 of P18_EMPNO. This has an Option URL Redirect set for it with the following settings:
Target is a - Page
Page - 18
Set These Items - P18_EMPNO,P18_EMPNO_COPY
With These Values - ,&P18_EMPNO.
I have created a Process to run "On Load - After Header". The PL/SQL code for this is:
DECLARE
emp_rec EMP%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT * INTO emp_rec FROM EMP WHERE EMPNO = :P18_EMPNO_COPY;
:P18_EMPNO := NULL;
:P18_JOB := emp_rec.JOB;
:P18_MGR := emp_rec.MGR;
:P18_SAL := emp_rec.SAL;
:P18_DEPTNO := emp_rec.DEPTNO;
END;
This has a Conditional Processing Condition Type of "Value of Item in Expression 1 is NOT NULL" and Expression 1 shows P18_EMPNO_COPY
Finally, for each field, I have added in a Default Value that points to itself (For example, the P18_JOB field has a Default Value of :P18_JOB) with a Default Value Type of PL/SQL Expression.
Obviously you will need to replace the field and item names with those for your table and form.
This process does the following:
1 - The user clicks the link in the report on page 15. P18_EMPNO gets populated with the EMPNO value of the item select.
2 - Page 18 is loaded with the data relating to the record with the ID found in P18_EMPNO
3 - The Copy button is displayed only if P18_EMPNO contains a value
4 - The user clicks the Copy button
5 - The P18_EMPNO value is copied into P18_EMPNO_COPY and P18_EMPNO is blanked out
6 - The page is submitted with these changes. When it reloads, the new process kicks in
7 - This process will:
(A) Create a variable based on the record structure for the EMP table
(B) Fill this variable with the data in the table for the ID that's now in P18_EMPNO_COPY
(C) Set the session state values for the fields that need to be repopulated with the data now retrieved into the variable
(D) Clear the P18_EMPNO session state value
8 - When the page starts to load the form, it will see that there is no P18_EMPNO value and, therefore, will not bring in any information from the table. However, as we have now set the Default Value settings for each field, this will force it to retrieve the values we've stored using the new process and display these values in the form.
I think I've detailed everything - if this doesn't work, please let me know!
Regards
Andy

SRM PO Header - field visibility change

Hi All,
I am on SRM 7.0 How can I change the visibility of fields on the PO Header. Please help

First you need to check if it can be done from WD configuration. for this right click on the screen, get the configuration name, WD component name and change. Here you can set the fields visibility,
If this is not satisfying your need then you need to do a post implementation on WD component for WDMODIFYVIEW.

Keeping 2 things visible at once

Grab the lower right corner of each window and reduce the size of the window so it uses half of the screen.

Can I keep the scrollbar visible in a text field once focus is lost?

Hi there,
I am pre-loading a text field with a large amount of text and making it read-only so that the user can scroll and read. So essentially I'm not using it for text entry but simply as a scrollable text area as I couldn't find a simpler way to achieve this.
Only problem is our client doesn't like the fact that the scrollbar doesn't appear until you click into the text field and disappears again when the field loses focus. It is not immediately clear that there is a large amount of text and that the user needs to scroll to read it all.
Is there a way of making the scrollbar visible at all times, or is there a better way of implementing a scrollable text area?
Many thanks,
Kieran

Here are my answers..
1) Is there any way I can programmatically force the scrollbar to be visible at all times?
Srini: I do not think that is available.
2) Do you know of any other way to implement a read-only scrollable text area?
Srini: Make the TextField Type to Protected/ ReadOnly to hold the ReadOnly text and make it Allow Multiple Lines. (I think you did the same)..Usually if you have a long text inside a text field with scrollbar, if the user tries to print, it will only print what ever is visible. So it would be better to check the "Expand to Fit" for Height in the Layout tab and "Allow Page Breaks with in the Content" for TextField (if possible) or the Subform/ Table/ Row that holds the TextField.
Thanks
Srini

How to keep form field and label together?

In InDesign Creative Cloud (ID CC), I need to create a 20 page form (a type of questionnaire). As a prelude to doing this, I created a one page form. I am trying to keep labels (text) and fields together, so that if I add a question in the middle of the form, everything else moves down and stays in the correct alignment and relationship. Here is what I tried.
Option 1: Anchored Fields. I created fields on a "fields" layer and labels on a "text" layer. The text layer generally had tables to help me see where fields should be placed. However, to keep fields and text in the same relationship on the page, I anchored the field to the text. Hoewever, this has the effect of moving the field object into the same layer as the text. When I tried to use the Articles panel to put the fields in correct tab order, I discovered that only fields (unanchored) that were in the forms layer could be dragged into the Articles panel; anchored fields (now in the text layer) could not be dragged into the Articles panel. Why?
I know that I could also use the Object / Interactive / Set Tabs Order command, but I wanted to use Articles to see how that works.
In this approach, I also could not figure out how to put underline the text form field
Option 2: Tabs and Character Styles. I used character styles for underlining by not using tables, but using paragraphs and tabs to align where the fields should be. I applied a character style to a right-justified tab to get the underline. However, using this option, whenever I add a new question (field + label or instruction) in the middle of the form, everything else down on the page goes out of alignment.
What recommendations do other form designers have? I have been trying to think of how IRS has "dense" or "complex" forms, and how these might be designed in InDesign CC. in order to apply similar techniques to my form design.
I am running on a Mac, OS X 10.8.4, InDesign CC.

Unless I am gravely mistaken, isnt this what you want?
for (int i = 0; i < folderList.size(); i++) {
 String folder = (String) folderList.get(i);
 System.out.println("Folder: " + folder);
 System.out.println ("Messages: " + folderMap.get (folder));
}
