LC designer form content disappears

We created a form in lc 8. As a pdf it is fine. We need to adjust the content and form. How can we adjust it without the content going away? The form is there but data goes away?
Thank you

The problem is that XFA based PDF Form (a form created with Adobe LiveCycle Designer) cannot be edited using Acrobat. There is no way around this.

Page content disappears in Edit mode - Custom Master Page

Hi All,
Below are the two issues I have with my master page.
1) I am facing the strange issue with the pages created using custom page layouts and custom master page.
In browse mode, everything looks perfect and as expected. But when I try to edit the same page, all content disappears as soon as page ribbon appears. When I click back on Browse tab on the ribbon, everything appears back normally.
2) Also When I apply my custom master page as site master for Publishing site it works I can see all my custom design and layout. But when I apply same for team sites, unless I change system master to my custom master page, it doesn't reflect my design.
Does anyone face this issue before?
Thanks

Once in edit mode, are you able to view the page's source and do a "Find" on a certain keyword that should normally appear in your page's content? Is it there?
I'm trying to determine if its a server side issue with your master page's code that's causing the content not to be sent back across the wire to the user or if the content is there but just not properly presented. Thanks

How does one get a simple URL link onto the Designer Form?

Greetings:
Thank heavens for small favors, kudos to Adobe for Designer and its basic email functionality.
One annoying thing, I am finding it impossible to put a simple link on the Designer Form. Likewise, if I open the form in Acrobat, the link icon on the toolbar is greyed and unavailable, so I cannot select text and turn it into a link.
I have found that I can make a bookmark with the form open in Acrobat and make that a link to a URL, but I cannot specify the initial view to show the bookmarks open, so there is a very good chance this bookmark/link will never be seen.
The HTTP button help states:
"The HTTP submit button operates like a standard button object with these settings:
Control Type set to Submit
Submit Format set to URL-Encoded Data
Submit To URL set to use the http: protocol."
which doesn't sound like it's meant to function like a simple link, and trying it anyway I get an error message that the url is incorrect.
Any ideas on this?

I guess one can't paste html in these posts, here's the code, minus all the html tags, and the brackets for the meta tag, title tag and body tag.
Opening URL in new window from Acrobat.
The Code for the first HTML page.
meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2; URL=Original.pdf"
title New Page 1 title
BODY onload="window.open('startNewPDF.htm', 'newWindow')"
Code for the second HTML page which forces the new document to stay on top.
meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3; URL=New.pdf"
title New Page 1 title
body onBlur="setTimeout('self.focus()',2500)"
By the way, I figured out where to apply javascript to a button. Being new to Designer, I did not see that slender script interface at the top.
James' xfa.host.gotoURL("http://www.yoursite.com",0); does indeed work like a charm. I just selected the button, selected Javascript instead of FormCalc, Selected "click" from the event dropdown, and pasted in xfa.host.gotoURL("http://www.yoursite.com",0); (changing the URL of course).

Letting non-technical clients design forms and workflows

Some individuals in my organization are under the impression that our clients, who are very non-technical, will be able to design forms / workflows, etc.
The impression is that the developers are to create a set of standard schemas, fragment libraries, and workflows, and then the (non-technical) client can build their own forms, select a predefined Task Manager endpoint, and hit the ground running with their new form, in production. Yes you heard me correctly. In production. That means no DEV, no QA, no passing Go.
In other words, they are putting LiveCycle on the same playing field as Vignette (Content management in production).
I disagree with their approach and am seeking feedback. Thanks! ;-)

If the form is bound to a schema, at least when they move form elements around, most of the time it will still work. If normal binding, moving stuff around will screw up the data merge.
The biggest problem I see with the changes being made directly in production is that I save my forms to the repository in order to test. The preview tab quite often does not represent true functionality. So if they had Workbench pointing right at prod, the form cannot be tested without releasing it.
I don't know what you mean between content repository and Workbench repository. The way my implementation works, if I save in Workbench, I can immediately reload the page to get the changes. They are the same repository. I am using the API call (off the top of my head) renderFormWithUSageRights. I specify a repository URL for the template location. All my forms render through the same servlet parsing the form name out of the request URL. There is an XDP in the repository with the same name as each pdf URL. There is also a corresponding JSP which renders the XML that is merged in at render.
I saw a reference somewhere that the repository URL could contain a version at the end. I have not tried this. If true, it would not be difficult for me to update my code to get the version number out of my properties database table. Then also allow an override version number in the URL for the final form. So http://mycompany.com/myform.pdf renders the 'released' version and http://mycompany.com/myform.pdf?version=2.7 returns that specific version. http://mycompany.com/myform.pdf?version=latest would work like it does now where no version number is specific in the repository URL. This would mean they could save the form, access in production to test, but not affect normal users. Once tested, the database could be updated to reflect the new released version. It would be really slick to have a workflow approval process around it. The workflow would have a link to the new version for each approver to review. After the last person signs, the workflow would update the database to the new version. The next time it is rendered will be the latest version.
Thinking about this, I like that idea even if a developer makes the changes. There are times when customers won't sign off on their own requested changes because they won't make the effort to test it before it goes into production. They would rather let the changes go in then report anything they don't like as a bug. They feel if they don't sign, then they cannot be held accountable. Sometimes the same people or others will get angry if an item is not put into production based on not getting sign off. Now, the deployment would be tied directly to the sign off procedure rather than manually by someone in IT. All approvers would be able to look at the audit trail to see who has not signed off and therefore the direct cause of an item not being released.

Flex 3 project, all visible content disappears

This is a bit hard to describe. It's a complex Flex app for a realtime multiplayer game using socket connections. Previously, everything worked fine, but after some recent changes there is a point where all visible content disappears.
What is REALLY odd is that this ONLY happens when the SWF is embedded in an HTML page. If the SWF is loaded directly by the browser, either locally using file:/// or served by a webserver (i.e. http://localhost:8080/swfs/MySwf.swf) then the SWF works as expected and transitions to the next state without a problem.
Also of note is that no error is thrown and, yes, I have the debug version of flash installed and can see popup errors by intentionally causing them to test.
I'm at a loss for how to debug this. I started by commenting out all sections of the code that had recently changed, but the problem persisted. Since then, I'm shooting in the dark, commenting out sections and testing. For a bit, I thought the problem might be with the embed code itself, but I'm using the default generated by Flex Builder and it has not changed in the past 10 months that the last version of this SWF was working. I've tried using every alternate window mode, but that didn't change anything.
I've been testing mainly in Safari 4 (OS X), but tried Firefox 3.5 to confirm that the problem wasn't mac-browser specific, and tried Firefox 3 (Ubuntu) to confirm it wasn't OS specific.
Does anybody know, on a high level, what could cause this kind of problem? Specifically...
1) What can cause the display to suddenly clear?
2) What differences are there between running the SWF directly (even loaded from a webserver, so it's not local content) that could affect rendering?
3) Any other advice on things to try?
Attached are two images:
(a) the one with content elements is the desired effect, and was the result of loading the swf directly, and
(b) the one with just the plain background image is the result at the same step but embedded in an HTML page
Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion Barna. I've been doing that, though, and discovered that the code continues to run in the background, not having hit any error. I literally had logging statements between every line of code in the function where the content disappears, and every logging statement was output as it should be.
So, I tried executing a different function that does nothing but change the current state instead, and the problem still occurred.
The keys points thus far are:
(1) no error messages thrown
(2) no errors in the AS3 code
(3) but a call to currentState = "lobby" (which is the next desired state) causes the contents of the display to vanish
(4) again, only happens when embedded
If there is an error, it seems to be in the state change... which is MXML, so I can't log output there, but I'll see if commenting out particular element(s) or changes will shed some light on where an error might be...

How can i send an auto reply with form content to sender?

You can but you would need to send it as an html email which is much more complicated.
What you would do is build a page/table construction like below. You would need to use the php variables to echo out the information in the <td></td> cells (example below).
$reply = $_POST['email'];
$from = '[email protected]';
$replysubject = "Auto-Reply: Website Name";
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From: $from\r\nReply-to: $reply";
$replymessage = '

Content disappears once Lifetime (Time-Based Publishing) is enabled

We have transported KM content from our Dev KM to our QA KM. We noticed that the Lifetime setting of the folder was not transported, so we enabled it on the folder in QA. Once the lifetime is enabled in QA, the content disappears from the iView display. On our Dev KM, it is working correctly.
We checked the content and each has Valid-to and Valid-from fields set the same as it is in Dev. They should be displaying as they do in Dev.
The transport was done first using online ICE. When that did not work we did it again using offline ICE, transporting a .zip file from Dev to QA.
Any ideas as to what might be happening?
Both QA and Dev are EP 7.0 SPS 11.

Hi,
If you transported the KM files with ICE, then the Application-Defined Properties
such as Valid From and Valid Until for time-dependent publishing are not transported due to limitations in ICE transport.
Check this for more:

How to print a PDF form content when i have the content

Hi SAPGURUS,
I have an urgent requirement.
I have the content of a PDF form in raw format and it is saved in some repositry .Now How can i create a spool request and print the form.
I can use the function module FP_JOB_OPEN and then gat the dynamic function module name and then close it by FP_JOB_CLOSE .
But as i already have the PDF form content i need not create it again by calling the dynamic function module.And i can't do so because both applications are altogether separate from each other that is creation of the PDF form and printing it.
Could you help me in guiding the way to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance
Sanjeev

Hi Sanjeev,
I have currently the same issue, please have you solved it?

How to add more PDF file in to a designed form

Hi,
I have already designed a form and now want to add 2 more pdf file in to the form, how can I do that.
Rgds
Anver

LiveCycle Designer and forms created using LiveCycle Designer can not do this. Just as PDF's created outside of LiveCycle Designer can not import forms created by LiveCycle Designer, but one can import the underlying PDF page without the form fields. The reason for this is that LiveCycle Designer creates an XML form with a minimal PDF page. The inclusion of the XML form data is enough to make the document not compliant to the PDF format. It should be noted that only versions of Acrobat 5.1 or above can process LiveCycle Designer forms, as these versions have had additional code added to the application to process the XML information.

Need help with designing form for exports

Hi
I am pretty new to designing form in adobe acrobat.
I have adobe acrobat 9 standard with Adobe liveCycle Designer installed.
There are couple of things I want to do.
1.
I would like to add a box where I can change the number (default is 1), and when I increase it, (for instance to two)
then
it will postulate the particular sections twice.
For instance, I am taking two drugs right now, then I would like to increase the number of drugs to 2, so then for each drug
I would enter appropriate information such as drug name, drug form, route of drug administration etcs
I hope this is clear
2.
I am trying to export this in xml format so that only the ones where the user fills in in pdf form gets exported to xml format.
I would like the boxes to have its own tag, for instance the drug name mentioned above can have a tag of <drugname></drugname>
I know this is possible through changing the box's name in binding tab.
What I am interested in is to add a tag for the section, like a header.
For example, if I were to enter two drug information I want the first drug information to be exported to be
<drug>
<drugname>blah</drugname><drugform>1</drugform><drugroute>oral</drugroute>
</drug>
<drug>
<drugname>drug2</drugname><drugform>1</drugform>
<drugroute>ophthalmic</drugroute>
</drug>
how would I add <drug> </drug> for each drug?
also, can I change the order of the tags??
in the pdf form, if the drugname box is displayed later than drugroute box, then when I export it, it will display as
<drugroute>oral</drugroute><drugname>blah</drugname>
but I want to manually set the order of tags when exported.
Sorry I asked so many questions
I hope it is clear enough for you to visualize what I am trying to do
Thank you so much

1. You can certainly add sections for the number of drugs that the user specifies pr
ovided that the form is set up the correct way to begin with. The drug information section must be wrapped in a subform (usually Poistioned) and that in turn must be wrapped in a flowed subform. Then the form must be saved as dynamic. If this information is all that is on the form then that shoudl be all you need to do. If th edrug section is in the middle of the form then you need to wrap the other parts of the form in a subform so they can be pushed down when we add the drug subforms. It can get confusing ...seeing the form amnd its structure would help to clarify.
2. You canbnot change the names of tags on the fly but you can change their values. AS mentioned above, when you wrap the Drug information in a subform that subform name can be used as a tag in the XML. Then you could have a node with the tag (or an attribute) that names the drug in question. Something like this:
<Drug Section>
     <Drug>
          <DrugName></DrugName>
          <Dossage></Dossage>
          <Supplier></Supplier>
     </Drug Subform>
     <Drug>
          <DrugName></DrugName>
          <Dossage></Dossage>
          <Supplier></Supplier>
     </Drug>
</Drug Section>
As mentioned earlier this is always easier to explain when you see it in context of your form.....if you want to send it to me at [email protected] I can get you started at least. Please include a description of your issue in the email

Share Data between Pro and Designer Form

Good evening,
Old Form:
I recently inherited an adobe pro form created a few years ago. The naming conventions are horrible, and they refuse to replace the form to spit out an xml file. But they want the data to fill into an access database.
New Form:
I was able to create an adobe designer form, with proper naming conventions, that exports an xml file that can be imported into the access database.
Help:
Is there a way to link the old form data to the new form, with the naming conventions being different?
Ideally, id like to create a button that will display a dialog box to select the old form and import the data without converting to an xml first…is this possible?
Thanks in advance!

Hello Pieter,
Ok, it sounds like you are asking about 5 different things here. Let me break them up and respond individually.
There is no overhead inherent to using a MathScript node on RT. Since the MathScript code is implemented on top of LabVIEW code, there will be varying levels of performance with respect to a native LabVIEW implementation, but simply having the node itself does not cause any overhead.
On a Windows platform (or other desktop platform), the answer is the same: the node does not introduce any overhead into your algorithm.
If you use the application builder to create a compiled program that uses the run-time engine, you are no longer able to change the .m file. Or, to be a little more technically accurate, the LabVIEW run-time engine does not have a compiler. Thus, you can change the .m file all you want, but the actual .m file that is used by your built application is the version that was present when you built the application.
The behavior you observe with MathScript executing new code will only happen if you are running a VI with the full development version of LabVIEW. We need the LabVIEW compiler in order to generate new code when you update a .m file and this is only present with the full development version of LabVIEW.
The search path is only necessary when you are developing your VI on the host. You can set a search path by right-clicking on "My Computer" in your project, choosing Properties, and then "MathScript: Search Paths." Note: your VI will need to be in the "My Computer" target to locate your .m file. After you have created your MathScript node, you can drag the VI to the target. You are correct that the .m file is compiled when the program is deployed and you do not need to transfer the .m file to the target.

Destination for Forms contents

I am making a form for a website that will allow the user to send his/her email and comments to a nightclub managment so they can in turn send out information on parties to all who submit theyre emails. I was practicing the technique in a practice file. I was able to create the text fields as well as the submit button. My only issue and question is how do i set up the submit button properly so when the button is pressed the information is sent to a specific email address.
Ill include the code and css.

The form's action needs to point to a server side script that processes the form contents. For starters check with your host to see if they have a script that will work with your hosting plan. And please search this forum for 'form mail' for more details.

AdvancedDataGrid content disappearing when setting rendererProviders..

Hi All,
Thanks for the community support, really useful.
I am using the SDK 4.1.
Here is the explanation of my problem.I am using a detail renderer inside a ADG, which appears when clicking on a certain column.
This is done is AS3 (I mean not with mxlm tags), using the ADG rendererProviders property with an item renderer passed to a ClassFactory.
This is working ok, until a certain point..
Indeed, the grid contains many columns, with images item renderers and when I am horizontally scrolling through the column, a display bug make all the ADG content disappear.. Headers remain but all the data are gone. A user action that may update the data has to be done to make the data come back of course.
This bug seems to be known by a few, but unfortunately all the solutions are useless in my case (setting the property horizontalScrollPolicy = 'auto' for each column for instance).
After some research it appears that the line responsible for making the whole thing vanishing is the update of the variable rendererProviders:
ie this.rendererProviders.push(_detailRendererProvider);
In the AdvancedDataGrid.as class, the property setter, after updating its value of course make 2 other intructions :
invalidateSize();
invalidateDisplayList();
It seems this is a bit too much for the DG to handle (note that I call this.validateNow(); after the rendererProviders update in my code).
Note as well that if I do not set :
this.variableRowHeight = true;
An error pops up from the class AdvancedDataGridBaseEx in the configureScrollBars method, doing :
var headerPosX:int = lastHeaderInfo.headerItem.x;
(headerItem is null)
So, end of the day, I am stuck..
Many thanks for your help, hoping it will arouse some lights..

hi, katrina S
I don't know how but for the past three days iTunes has been functioning correctly.
I removed al my music files from the library and put them back to their original folder; reinstalled iTunes and let it go from there. I've decided not to copy my music folder to iTunes as it's now working "correctly." I haven't made any playlists or made any online purchases since reinstalling as I'm wary of it all going haywire again. Thanks for your help. I'll keep you updated on this matter.
take care,

Creating Page Layout Problem : Page Content Disappears

Hello,
I am a recent grad and new to the world of Sharepoint and ASP.
I created a Page Layout with 3 columns and I implemented the 'Page Content' in each column.
When I enter anything ( Text or HTML) in the Page Content and save, it immediately discards what I entered and saved.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that Page Content Disappears after you save the created Page Layout.
The issues is caused by that Page Layout is not assocaited with the content type.
Please make sure you create Page Layout correctly. You can refer to:
How to: Create a page layout in SharePoint 2013
Here is a similar thread for you to take a look at:
