Linking/Grouping Text Fields with a Check Box Field

Disclaimer: I know nothing about coding/scripting in Acrobat (or in any language, for that matter).
I have 4 sets of text fields, call them A, B, C, and D. All of the fields in set A will have a value entered. There are 10 fields in set A while sets B, C, and D may have as many as 104. Sets B, C, and D will always have a one-to-one-to-one correspondence with each other (B1 is associated with C1 and D1 only and so on). My dilemma/desire is two fold:
First:
I want to be able to group 3 to 4 of the fields in set C if I tick a check box/radio button/whatever field type works. When the fields are grouped, I want their values to be the same within the grouping. These fields should also be ungrouped when the marker field is unchecked/deactivated. No field will ever be in any more than one group.
Second:
I want values for set B to equal a value of set A if there is a value entered in that B's corresponding C field.
Please don't hesitate to point out where I can make any of this clearer.
Thank you in advance,
Joseph
P.S.
If one or both of these is not doable in Acrobat, would you please kindly point me to a program that can do this?

Steve,
Sorry, I referenced InDesign and this file was created in Illustrator. (I have been working with numerous files created in both InDesign and Illustrator, with numerous challenges). I do not have the native document nor Illustrator software, only Acrobat. When I previously loaded the InDesign-created pdf file(s) into Acrobat, I was unable to use the Text TouchUp Tool because I do not have the fonts on my system that were used to create the documents in InDesign, thus I am denied access to the text. With this file, created in Ilustrator; I assume because the text resides within the image created that encompasses the entire page, the Text TounchUp Tool and Object Tool have no response when I click on the page after activating the tools with a click, although the Tool Bar allows me to click on the icons to activate the functions.
I have read elsewhere that InDesign and Illustrator files are exported as images, thus requiring either Photoshop or Illustrator to fully edit outside of the originating software. However, I was hoping that I could create interactive forms by overlaying fields with Live Cycle Designer - I did not anticipate the default setting of the check box labels being unchangeable. Sounds like I am at a dead-end with this issue??

Popup screen with two check box and a text area for the user to enter value

hi,
i have a requirement when a button is clicked a popup screen should appear with two check box and a text box where the user can enter a value.
is there any function module which has that functionality

Hello,
You can create a new screen and select the screen type as model dialog box.This will give you a pop-up screen and you can call this model dialog box screen in the PAI of the screen where the button is present.(At user-command).
case ok_code.
when 'BUTTON'.
call screen 200 starting at 10 10.
You can design the PBO of this pop-up screen as per your needs.

How do you get different check box fields to display based upon a list box selection?

I am a relative newbie with LifeCycle Designer ES using v.8.2.1 to create interactive forms to replace manual hardcopies. I am working on a form that has a few pull down list boxes. I want different check box fields to display based upon the selection of an item from one of the pull down lists.
Any guidance on the best way to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Here is a sample with script in the change event of the dropdown. You may want to clear previous checkbox choices once the subform is hidden.
It is good to group objects in a subform - that way you only need to hide the subform and not each object in turn.
Good luck,
Niall

Need to change the LOV field based on checked box selection in OAF page

Dear ALL,
I have a requirement as below:
I have a custom OAF page having a lov field which is mandatory, a check box and a two text fields.
So based on LOV value selection i am defaulting two text field value automatically.
So my requirement is when user selects the check box automatically the LOV field should be non mandatory and user can insert in values to the lov field and text field and submit it.
SO basically based on check box field selection i need to make the lov field in such a way it should accept all the values what user enters instead of check the query added in VO behind the LOV.
Please suggest me some pointers to achieve this requirement.
Thanks
Deb

hi,
in PFR use:

                pageContext.setForwardURLToCurrentPage(hashMap ,
                true, // retain the AM
                OAWebBeanConstants.ADD_BREAD_CRUMB_NO,
                OAWebBeanConstants.IGNORE_MESSAGES);
and in PR use:
if((pageContext.getParameter("checkboxval'))!=null)
OAMessageLovInputBean lovInputBean=(OAMessageLovInputBean)webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("item3");

Need help in LiveCycle Forms - Highlighting required fields when the check box is checked / Un-highlighting the fields if I un-check the check box...

Hello All!
I am relatively new to creating forms within LiveCycle but I have learned quickly so bare with me on my question.
I have figured out how to highlight a field when a check box is clicked on, however, I cannot get it to remove the highlight when the check box is unchecked?
This is what I used for the highlight:
Subform1.fieldname.fillColor="255,255,0"
Can anyone provide any insight or suggestions on how I might fix this script issue?
Thanks in advance!
-Lisa

Hi,
Script migth be something like this. Put it on Change event of the check box
if (this.rawValue == 1) { Subform1.fieldname.fillColor="255,255,0"
xfa.layout.relayout();
else
{ Subform1.fieldname.fillColor="255,0,0"
xfa.layout.relayout();

Check Box Fields

I am creating a form that has conditions that a person must follow. I need to set up a way to capture other conditions that haven't been included. I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to select other and have it automatically create check box fields and if it has the ability to have more than one field that comes up.

To recap...
Drop-down list - The drop-down list is part of a subform where a subform represents a page. Next and previous buttons are used to page up and page down through the subforms. The form was defined as a static form. Defining the form as a dynamic form resulted in the proper behaviour.
Checkboxes - The form contains check boxes that are untitled. Untitled check boxes do not get a binding definition. Since the three check boxes in row 1 were all untitled there was no binding definition. Defining each checkbox with a name, which propogated to the binding definition, resulted in the proper behaviour.

How do I change text size in a check box in CS3

How do I change text size in a check box in CS3?

While I've never done it myself for a checkbox, components
have a textField property which is essentially the texfield inside
the component. You probably need to apply a TextFormat to it to
change the size.
But if this involves the same problem you had yesterday,
where you couldn't change the width of the checkbox, I doubt you'll
have much luck changing the text size

How to disable certain form fields from a calculation with a check mark fields.

How to disable certain form fields from a calculation with a check mark fields.
In Canada we have to taxes
I create a form that calculate them to a total
I need to be able to turn off any of those to taxes to participate to the calculation and their visibile field should become 0
I was thinking using a checkbox (when checkbox is on (Yes) the tax is calculated, Not ticked (Off) the tax is not calculated and the visible field should show 0 or nothing....
I really need help on this one — I’m a complete newbie....
Remark that the second tax is calculated on the sum of what the first tax add (first tax is pan-canadian tax (all provinces).
The second tax is never use alone (Quebec only (on top of the Canadian one)
Sometime for outside Canada sell - No tax at all is calculated....
What should I do?

I want to tank you to help, really appreciate —>
This is the code and order... I just trow the checkbox in there (they have, so far, no purpose...)
The code use is
var a = this.getField("pricehorstx");
event.value = Math.round (a.value * 7.25) / 100
I guess -If the checkBox are check - The tax should be calculate — If “Off” the tax should be not calculated and PriceHST and /or PriceQST should show zero or be empty — The HST is always calculated in Canada, but the QST is added only in Quebec.
I need to turn both to Zero for international sale.

Replace the empty field with below data content field in xml pub report

Hi Gurus,
Please give me the solution for the Replacement of empty field with below data content field in XML PUBLISHER REPORT.
ex:
Name:Philips.M
Address 1:XP APPTS,
Address 2:S:R ROAD
Address 3:
COUNTRY:INDIA
Here i have to get only address 1,address 2 and the COUNTRY data.I dont want to display Address 3 field here.
Thanks,
David

I'm not sure if this answers your question but you could try putting out the address all in one item in the SQL eg somthing like:
address1 || DECODE(address1, NULL, NULL, 'newline character') ||
address2 || DECODE(address2, NULL, NULL, 'newline character') ||
address3 || DECODE(address3, NULL, NULL, 'newline character')
where 'newline character' is somthing like CHR(12)

How can I modify the Contacts Template to display additional fields with out selecting "add field" everytime?

How can I modify the contacts template in either iCloud, my iPhone, or my iPad to display additional fields that I always use ... example: How can I get Job Title to always be a fillable field with out selecting "add field" everytime?

Let the HairSalon implement the java.lang.Comparable interface. You'll need to write code for
public int compareTo(Object o1, Object o2)
The compare method would cast the Objects to HairSalons and return the difference in price.
Then use java.util.Arrays.sort(Object []);

Problem with a check box in SBO 2004

Hi
I have created a form in screen painter which is linked to a user defined object. All the text fields are being saved ok to the table.
I have just added some check box's but there not working correctly. I can tick the box but not deselect it. It doesn't seem to be saving it either. It is bound to a single character field in the table.
Does anyone have any ideas pls ?
Regards Andy

Hi Adele
I just cracked it, if I add the fields in code it worked. I then went on to save the form in xml and compare it to my screenpainter code. Valoff and Valon are not set because they are not options in screenpainter.
Agrees with what you said, what do you think ?
Regards Andy

How to limit OK with a check box

I am new to JavaScript. I have search the web. I have been working on this box for 3 days. I have slapped various code from example to get it this far but I cant seem to accomplish my needed last step.
I need the Check box to also limit the OK button. AKA "Confirm" Whether I need a second alert or some other step I am unsure but basically if they don't check the box the only option I want available to them is the cancel button. Please Help. Also if you see anything that suggest a novice mistake please point it out.

You need to use the validate function of the Dialog object. It returns a boolean (true/false) that specifies whether the dialog needs to be closed or not (the user can still cancel out of the dialog, of course). So in your case it will be something like this:
validate: function (dialog) {
    var results = dialog.store();
    if (!results["ckbx"]) {
        app.alert("You must tick the \"I Understand\" box.");
        return false;
    return true;
