Livecycle Designer 8.0 word wrap problem
Here is the link to the application I made
http://www.nevadajudiciary.us/index.php/view-documents-and-forms/func-startdown/309/
I am using Full* with script xfa.host.setFocus("FieldName"); to get my form to word wrap, but it is cutting off a letter before it does the word wrap to the next line. Is there any way to not orphan that letter and just move to the next line? Is there some better script out there for what I am trying to do?
You are asking for a world of hurt if you try and handle the word wrap yourself. Not to mention the movement from one line to the next.
Is there anyway you can change their minds? That technique is more in tune with a printed form as opposed to an online ffillable orm.

JEdtiorPane/HTMLEditorKit word wrapping problems
Hi,
I have a JFrame component that has a splitPane, on the left side is a JTree and the right side has a JEditorPane that has it's content updated with HTML using a method to generate the HTML via the setText() method . (no url, and no html file)
The searching I did indicates that word wrapping is the default behavior, and I saw a lot of posts from people trying to get rid of the word wrapping, but it isn't wrapping at all for me. I get the horizontal scroll bar.
I had the same problem using a JTextPane...anyone know how to wrap text?
here's the relevant code:
descriptionPanel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
descriptionEditorPane = new JEditorPane();
HTMLEditorKit htmlEditorKit = new HTMLEditorKit();
descriptionEditorPane.setEditorKit(htmlEditorKit);
descriptionEditorPane.setSize(new Dimension(610,800));
descriptionEditorPane.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(10,10,10,10));
descriptionPanel.add(descriptionEditorPane);Did you place the components into scroll panes and then put those into the split pane?
If so, then I guess that calling setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER) on the editor pane's scroll pane might solve your problem. -
When entering text into a web form the text no longer "wraps" at the end of the box. The first part of the text runs off the left side. It is working fine in THIS text entry box but is now a problem on some other sites.
See: http://www.thedirectoryclassifieds.com. Start placing a listing and then start entering text into the description box. Once you reach the end of the line the text does not wrap, just runs off the left side as typing continues. After this testing, just exit (back out) without continuing placing the listing.
When encountering this problem I did a test on another computer that had 35.0.1 and word wrapping worked fine. Then I upgraded to 36.0 on that computer and now the problem is there too.
So this definitely means a problem with 36.0 as it wasn't there in earlier versions.That particular form control has:
<textarea id="main_description" name="b[description]" '''style="white-space: pre;"''' class="editor field"></textarea>
For the first time in Firefox 36, the white-space property is being honored for textarea controls. So there's your trouble: "pre" means Firefox should emulate the preformatted tag, which requires manual line breaks.
It would be great if you can convince the site to change this to:
<textarea id="main_description" name="b[description]" '''style="white-space: pre-wrap;"''' class="editor field"></textarea>
which is supported by all modern browsers (per the compatibility table here: [https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/CSS/white-space#Browser_compatibility]).
But that likely will take some time, so what is the best short-term workaround? I need to think about that a bit.
To manually hack this form control, you can right-click it and choose Inspect Element (Q). This should open the web console to the Inspector in the lower part of the tab. Firefox should highlight the HTML tag I listed first above, and on the right, show the style rules for it. Under "This Element" you can uncheck the box for that rule to have the textarea styled using default rules. But you would need to do this after each time you load the page, which is a hassle. -
LiveCycle Designer ES 4 trial download problem
Hi,
Im trying to download LiveCycle Designer ES 4 trial here http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=livecycle_designer but nothing happens. When trying downloading with Explorer an error message comes up saying:

JEditorPane word wrap problems
I am using a JEditorPane in a chat window that is used, like instant messenger, between two clients. The ability to insert icons and different fonts is available after setting the editor kit to an HTMLEditorKit. However, after using an HTMLEditorKit, the word wrapping is a bit funky in that the words are cut off when wrapping.
Is there any way to get aroudn this while STILL using a JEditorPane (or something similar that can accept HTML?). I would be able to use JTextPane, which wraps correct (I believe...I'm trying to think back to my first implementation), but the icons begin to get tricky there. I know how to insert them, but if I have multiple icons, I would need to find all of the first occuring icons since the string needs to be printed immediately to the screen.
Thanks for any help.I don't have an HTML document. Maybe you are mis-interpreting what I am trying to do :)
I am implementing a simple instant messenger (much like AIM). Right now, I have a JEditorPane that is using an HTMLEditorKit to render HTML. This is used to display emoticons and also change the font and font color. So, the HTML I am generating is manually put in there in the code so text will show up differently - say, the senders name will be red and the recipient will be blue.
Everything is working fine, except the text is wrapping and words are being cut off. In other words, this is happening:
| This is an exa |
| mple of some |
| thing that is ha |
| ppenning in m |
| y chat window. |

LiveCycle Designer 8 Saving Dynamic Field Problem
Just updated to LiveCycle Designer 8 to get around the issue with my users not being able to save the PDF form data. Now my users can save the data using Acrobat Reader 8 but my dynamic fields are not working correctly.
I have several fields that when you click a certain radio button or check a certain box, a previously invisible text field becomees visible. If one of those boxes is checked and data is entered in the now visible text field, then the users saves the form and reopens it, the data is saved but the field is invisible. Viewing the XML output confirms that the data is still there. When the form is reopened the checkbox that makes the field visible is still checked. But to see that data entered in the text field, you have to uncheck and then recheck the box to get the invisible field to become visible once more. Any idea on how to correct this "feature"?
Thanks, DebraHi Debra,
To correct this 'feature', go in Form Properties > Defaults tab, set the Preserve Scripting Changes To Form When Saved option to Automatically.
To correctly using Designer 7.x, youll have to write some script to achieve the same result. Currently, you have a script setting the fields state. All you need is to run the same script when the form is opened. In the example below, a form:ready script will execute the change event script when the form is opened. You can use the docReady event as well.
For example:
RadioButtonList: change event
if (this.rawValue == "1")
TextField1.presence = "visible";
else
TextField1.presence = "invisible";
RadioButtonList: form:ready event
this.execEvent("change");
Hope this helps,
Hélène

Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES Error while Connecting to MYSQL ODBC Driver
Hi
I'm getting an strange error message when i try to connect a LC PDF form to

Hello, I have created a form by using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0. Now problem is, when I submit the form through the e-mail everything works fine. When I open the attached pdf file the one I have submitted it also includes all the buttons example: Submit, Print, Save As, Reset which belongs to my pdf form. I would like that it should not includes those buttons.
Would you please help me how to solve that problem?
Sincerely,
NurulHi Nurul,
1. Unlike the other forums out there (including other forums at Adobe), from my experience, on this forum no one will even bother telling you if this has been answered or not or possible or not.
2. There is no one spot for where you can find Live Cycle help.
3. I've seen forums with a sticky at the top saying where to begin for people like us. There are stickies at the top yes. But if you read them the "Experts" are wingeing at the newbies questions.
Hopefully someone at Adobe is reading this because I am also a newbie looking for a simple solution and only needs to know if things are possible and then will study the program in detail if proper documentation exists.
Can someone guide me to a basics forum or documentaion?
In frustration

Adobe LiveCycle Designer vs. MySQL 4.1
Hi,
I have to design a input form for a client using LiveCycle Designer, but the client want to use for database a MySQL server. I can't make a connection to the MySQL server.
To connect, I use "New Data Connection" from File menu, I select "OLEDB Database", I select "Build ..." button, from OLEBD Providers I select "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server", I click the "Next" button. In field "Select or enter a server name" I write "localhost", I specify a user name and a password, a specify a database on server, and I click the "Test Connection" button. The error message that I've got is:
"Test connection failed because of an error in intializing provider. [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).] SQL Server does not exist or access denied."
My question is: can I use LiveCycle Designer with a MySQL server? If yes, what do I need? How can I make a connection to the MySQL server? Can I use SQL statements, like select, insert and update? I saw that the only script available are FormCalc and JavaScript.
I find on a site (http://www.romsym.ro/detalii.php?ctg=687) that MySQL server can be use with LiveCycle, but for that I have to install on a server "Windows 2003 Server, Enterprise Edition".
If I use MS Access like database, do I need a server, or can I use it on my computer with Windows XP Professional?
Thanks.
p.s.
I use LiveCycle Designer 8.0I had no problem connecting to Accesss...
I created a drop down menu and then I clicked on Object > Binding then click on > Default Binding (Open, Save, Submit) then "New Data Connection"
then connect to the database using a fileDSN (I created a fileDSN to connect to the Access DB in the ODBC connections on my computer).
Then I selected the tables and under query I wrote
select * from tableName
Then it gave me all the fields from the table and I dragged the name field over the drop down menu. -
Problem with expanding textfield in Adobe LiveCycle Designer
I've got an urgent problem with Adobe LiveCycle Designer and I really could use some help. The problem is that I'm trying to get my textfield expandable, but whatever I try, it's not working. What I'm trying to get done is that you can fill in a textfield, and when there is more text than the size of the field, the textfield expands to make the text fit in the field.
I tried a whole lot of things:
placing the textfield in a subform
expand to fit (height)
allow multiple lines
allow page breaks
flowed/positioned
etc.
The strange thing is, that no matter what I try to adjust, I can't change anything in the pagination tab. Maybe that is the problem, but I don't know what to do, to change that.
In the examples of Adobe itself (Purchase Form) is an example of a textfield that sort of behaves as I want it to, BUT the problem is that that textfield in the subform has to be triggered to appear by a button (add comments) and that is what I don't want. I want the textfield to be visible from the beginning. But in that example you CAN see the pagination tab and make changes in it.
I searched a lot in the Adobe Helpfiles of Designer, and I even bought and read/studied the book 'Creating Dynamic Forms with Adobe LiveCycle Designer', but still I'm not able to get this done.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Thanks in advance,
SterreI am creating my first .pdf with no training. I first converted a word doc of our form into a .pdf. Modified everything and thought I was the "bomb" for figuring it out. Then I tried to use the form and where I had "allowed multiple lines" I realized that it would allow that but not display it or print it except for what was showing.
In researching for a solution, this site said to use "expand to fit". After much frustration I realized that this feature is only available if you created the form from scratch in adobe.
I have figured out, somewhat, how to create the form and get the field to move with the text but I need the entire form to adjust to the input. Can't have one specific field expand into the rest of the form.
I did some more research on this site, and it looks like the solution has something to do with 'subforms'. No idea what to do.
If anyone knows if there is a way to do this with a converted doc (since I already have that completed) I would GREATLY appreciate it. If it isn't possible, could someone walk me through how to do it or provide a reference for a "barney style" walk through?
Appreciate ANY assistance you can provide. THANKS! Guess I need to sign up for an Adobe Pro class. BTW I'm working on LiveCyle 8.0 -

LiveCycle Designer 8: Font embedding problem
I use LiveCycle Designer 8 to create a form, but it doesn't wanna embed various fonts. Favorite font to use would be the Meta Font (Type 1 or TTF), but neither gets embedded.
Is this a bug or a restriction of the font itself?
Is there a solution to this problem?
Wish things would be working out as with the Distiller...sigh.Hi Debra,
To correct this 'feature', go in Form Properties > Defaults tab, set the Preserve Scripting Changes To Form When Saved option to Automatically.

Problems with Submitting a Adobe Livecycle Designer 8.0 created Form after Update to Adobe Prof. 8.1
Hi folks,
can someone tell me, which problem is it? Forms created in Livecycle Designer 8.0 with Adobe Prof. 8.0 don't have problem with submitting, but with Adobe Prof. 8.1.
Thanks for help or information in adv!Hello Mr Aandi Inston,
thanks for your quick answer! My problem is the following: The functionality email submitting in Livecycle 8.0 created form under Adobe Prof. 8.1 is malfunction when you open the form in Adobe Reader 8.x. There are non error messages to able to locate the problem. When you click the submit button, nothing is happen. Forms created before update adobe prof. 8.0 to 8.1 didn't have problem like this.
Normally, after clicking submit button ms outlook popup with suitable subject, attachment and so on. Executing the form in Adobe Prof. you wont have problem to submit form per email. Now I suppose that this problem is caused by updating???
Why do I claim it? After failed testing the modified form based on dynamic interactive template form "Purchase Order.pdf" from Designer 8.0 under different windows os and ms office versions I tried to test the above-named template, the same problem you will get: email submitting is malfunction!
I hope, my description will be detailed enough to you and I'm glad to hearing from you soon!
