Multiple Choices in either Dropdown list or List box

I'm working on a form which will need to be reviewed and accepted by multiple people. I'd like to have a dropdown list or list box with all the known names of those reviewing, where all names can be selected, one by each reviewer so eventually all names will be picked, and the form approved.
Open to any help I can get. This is new territory for me. Thanks in advance,
gb

err... should it be allowed to deselect?
If yes I'd do it with checkboxes, if not I'd do it with a dropdownlist that populates calculated Textfields.
Though there already was a solution for multiple selections of a dropdownlist in the past... I'll search it, if you want.
Any more requirements? (F.ex. should the next user be not able to see who has already had it?)

RE: Multiple-Choice Format of Review Questions in i Books

Greetings Developers of the i Books Author App,
When will a widget be developed for i Books that allows users of i books to type their answers to review questions in a 'text field' so that users are required to logically demonstrate deep conceptual understanding in science instead of merely guessing a simple multiple-choice answer, either A, B,C, D, or E to a simple, trivial factual recall 'intellectually shallow' question in secondary high school science?
Thanks and Best Wishes,

You should send feedback to Apple directly as your target audience doesn't review the public discussion forums.

Populate a Floating Field from Multiple Choices in a Drop Down List

Hi, folks, it's been a while which means things have been going smoothly. But what I'm trying to do at the moment has me stumped.
I have a form that was originally made with a long section of checkboxes that our agents would check if the answers applied to the client's case. This meant that the client had a whole bunch of information that didn't apply to them on the form so I thought would be clearer for the client if the agent would select only those items that pertained to them in a List Box. I used a List Box for multiple choices because several choices could apply to their case. And I wanted those selections to relayout to a floating text field in a paragraph but for the life of me, I can't seem to make that happen. I tried switching to a Drop Down Field and that allows only one selection to relayout.
The paragrah reads "To proceed, we need the following information or the documents identified below:" and then the 15 items would be listed with the checkboxes.
Any suggestions as to how I should do this?

What if you leave them as checkboxes and just put a pre-print event in each of the 15 items to make them visible or hidden based on their value?

How to make a keyboard navigating multiple choice list in Flash and control it through actionscript?

i am making an rpg style game in actionscript 3.0 and i want to make a multiple choice list. I know how to make the list with buttons and how to control it. My question is, how do you make a list that can be navigated using the keyborad arrows? What i am after is being able to hit up, and down to highlight the buttons and enter to chose the button.

You'll need to make the buttons as movieclips so that you can control which display state they are in (highlighted versus not).
Then you need to set up a listener for the keyboard keys so that you can have the selected button change and the execute if the Enter is pressed. Here is a basic setup for a keyboard listener that shows how to detect the three keys you mentioned...
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keyIsDown);
function keyIsDown(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
         if (e.keyCode == Keyboard.DOWN) {
                 trace("DOWN");
         } else if (e.keyCode == Keyboard.UP) {
                 trace("UP");
         } else if (e.keyCode == Keyboard.ENTER) {
                 trace("ENTER");

You cannot take a folder out of the Trash to your Desktop without erasing the one on the Desktop. You need to first change the name of the folder on the Desktop. Or you can open the folder that's in the Trash and drag the files onto the Desktop assuming there aren't too many of them.
But if you have a duplicate on the Desktop why do you need to remove the one that's in the Trash?
If you feel you must take the folder out of the Trash, then you need to rename the duplicate that's on your Desktop.
If you wish to put the folder back where it was when you deleted it, then open the Trash window, select the folder, then CTRL- or RIGHT-click and select "Put Back" from the context menu.

How do i add multiple lines in a cell (like a list) in Excel for MAC?

I'm trying to add multiple lines (in the form of a list) in a individual cell in Excel for MAC. I used ALT Enter on my PC but that doesn't work on the iMac. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!

It's been a while but I think you hold SHIFT while typing a page break (RETURN) to make a new line without shifting to another cell.
However, as Excel isn't an Apple product, I am sure you will get a faster and more current answer by using Microsoft's Office:Mac forums here:

They are very good.

I "reply"ed to an e-mail message. The next time when I chose to write a new message and type the first letter of the person I replied to earlier, that name and e-mail address appears as a choice included in a pop up list of my contacts.

I "reply"ed to an e-mail message. The next time when I chose to write a new message and type the first letter of the person I replied to earlier, that name and e-mail address appears as a choice included in a pop up list of my contacts. The persons name is not in my contacts and I would like to delete it from popping up. Do you know how I can do this?

The Mail app on the iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch does have an option to clear previous recipients. You can learn to live with it. But if you want to get rid of it, the only way to remove these cached email addresses from the Mail application is restoring the iPhone/iPod Touch as a new phone/iPod. If you restore from backup, the cache is also restored.
This article shows you the screens you will see during the restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

I created a form with Single Choice fields, 4 days with times listed. But, I want the user to only be able to choose one time, and the time chosen to be unavailable for other users. How do I do this?

I created a form with Single Choice fields, 4 days with times listed. But, I want the user to only be able to choose one time, and the time chosen to be unavailable for other users. How do I do this? I have 4 blocks of Single Choice fields in order for the summary page to give me each day in the final report. But, I need the user to be able to make a selection of any day and time and that apointment to no longer be available to future users when they log in. Plus, when the user clicks on the time, they are unable to change their mind and choose another time.

I'm afraid not. It's not rocket science but you need to do some coding.
You'll need to find a script (php) and save it to your local site folder. Then reference the script in your form's action attribute like so.
<form action="path/form-to-email-script.php" >
The input fields in your HTML form need to exactly match the script variables.
I'm assuming you're hosted on a Linux server which uses PHP code. Linux servers are also case sensitive, so upper case names are not the same as lower case names. It's usually best to use all lower case names in your form and script to avoid confusion.

Displaying Multiple XML Data on List Item List

Hi there..
Is it possible to display multiple XML Data on List Item List. I mean like the example below.
and how to programatically load image that depends on the XML data value (0=down arrow, 1=up arrow) and also how to refresh data every 1 second.
Thank you very much...

Hi Ann,
Write a Forms procedure and in that open a cursor fetching all data you want to show in the list element and populate the list within the loop using Add-List-Element built-in. Call this procedure in When-New-Form-Instance trigger. Whenver form will be opened the your list element will be populated automatically.
Hope that helps you.

Hot to remove 'Approver' from Role dropdown in Collaborator List?

Hello Experts,
How do you remove or add values to standard enumeration type fields?
For eg., if I wanted to add a value to 'STATUS_INDICATOR' in Prpoject (could not find it in the standard value list types).
Or if I want to remove 'Approver' from the Role dropdown of Collaborator list?
Thanks & Regards,
Subhasini

There's a Value list called Project Status you can edit to customize your list of project statuses.
The Collaborator Role Definitions can be edited by going to SETUP>General> Collaborator Role Definitions
however, i would not remove the Approver role as this would hinder system functionality surrounding approval workflows.

Using a multiple word choice in a dropdown field to fire a java script

I'm a complete beginner to java script, and relatively new to form building in Acrobat.
I'm using a dropdown field to auto-fill other fields based on my 1st dropdown selection.
The 1st dropdown field allows me to select a variety of vendors. Once I select the vendor, it auto-fills the contact info for that vendor.
I plagiarized the scripting from this link: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/change_another_field. I even changed my field names for the time being. I'll change my form field names back and the script to match once I have it working the way I want.
If I use a single name in my vendor dropdown (1st field), the script works perfectly and auto-fills the contact information as expected. However, many of my vendors are two or more words...and I need these full names to print out, so I cant just make a one word contraction. Here's the script as I'm using it:
Here's an example of a single word vendor name that works as expected:
// Place all prepopulation data into a single data structure
var DeptData = { ADLEMI:{ contact: "P.O. BOX 2371",
                              email: "DOWNEY, CA 90242",
                              deptnum: "PHONE: (562) 923-0333 FAX: (562) 923-8111" }};
function SetFieldValues(cDeptName)
this.getField("DeptContact").value = DeptData[cDeptName].contact;
this.getField("DeptEmail").value = DeptData[cDeptName].email;
this.getField("DeptNumber").value = DeptData[cDeptName].deptnum;
The single vendor name I used in the example above is 'ADLEMI.' If I add 'BEST' to ADLEMI (see below) I receive a syntax error. I really need to be able to use multiple words in my Vendor dropdown to trigger the auto-fill.
// Place all prepopulation data into a single data structure
var DeptData = { ADLEMI BEST:{ contact: "P.O. BOX 2371",
                              email: "DOWNEY, CA 90242",
                              deptnum: "PHONE: (562) 923-0333 FAX: (562) 923-8111" }};
function SetFieldValues(cDeptName)
this.getField("DeptContact").value = DeptData[cDeptName].contact;
this.getField("DeptEmail").value = DeptData[cDeptName].email;
this.getField("DeptNumber").value = DeptData[cDeptName].deptnum;
The only difference is I added a space and the word 'BEST' after ADLEMI. Is there a way around this. I need to have multiple words in my dropdown, or at least the full name of the vendor showing in the field when I print it out.
Thanks

Place double-quotes around the item name.

Multiple choices in droplist?

For as much as I know, a droplist cannot have multiple selected items when using normal javascript in Designer 7.1. Has this changed with Designer 8 / ES and if so, is there any special limitation in version of the Reader to use? 8.0 or 8.1?
If no on the above questions, does anybody know of any workaround so that it is possible with multiple choices although it is a droplist or is it completely impossible with PDF?

In Designer ES I know that it should be possible to use multiple selections in lists but it doesn't seem to be possible in dropdown lists. At least that is what I get out of Stefan's blog below. If anyone has any other experience, please let me know.

Change Multiple Choice Options from A, B, C to 1, 2, 3?

I am using Captivate 8.1. I need to create a multiple-choice quiz where the answer options are 1, 2, and 3 instead of A, B, and C. I can't find a setting anywhere that lets me change the "numbering" (for lack of a better term) format of the multiple-choice question. Does anyone know if it is possible to do this?

In Quiz Properties panel, at the top, just under Points and Penalty, you'll find Numbering with a dropdown list.
I think you are on 8.0.1.242, there is not a version 8.1

Help,pls!! Multiple choices in Form4.5 and more questions

Hi, All.
I have some difficult questions. Any reply will be greatly
appreciated!
1. Is it possible to make multiple choice in a Form? It is known
that there is only one choice in LOV or List Item. ( That is
like : select ... from ...where :block1.Id= Order.order_Id )
What I would like to do is : select ...
from ...where :block.Id in ( select ...from...where...) Such
subquery will return at least five values. Can this be possibly
developed in Forms (4.5)? or should use VBX?
2.'Copy' function in Forms. I want to insert two records. The
second has the same value as the first except PK_VALUE. e.g.
1.Record A,B,C,D,E
2.Record M,B,C,D,E
The problem is whenever I do inserting in a Form, all columns are
blank and waiting for entering data. Is it possible to just
input 'F', and the other columns will be inserted automatically
as same as previous one ('B','C','D','E,')?
3.To concatenate comment statement of two reports.
I have two reports. Each has its own comment column.
Now I want to concatenate these two comments and insert it into
a new report. Is it possible in Reports2.5?
I have thought of these problems for a long time, but I still
can't solve
them. I am not sure whether I can do such things in Dev 2k? Or
it can be developed in Dev 6.0?
Please help me!
Best regards

Hi Priya ,
                 I have coded your example and it works fine for me
Please have see at the code.
tables : lips,vbak,vbap.
data : begin of itab occurs 0 ,
          vbelv like lips-vbelv,
          lfimg like lips-lfimg,
       end of itab.
PARAMETER: p_werks like vbap-werks.
select-options : s_vbeln for vbak-vbeln,
                 s_posnr for vbap-posnr.
select VBELV LFIMG from LIPS into corresponding fields of table ITAB where VBELV in S_VBELN and POSNV in S_POSNR.
I had entered value for s_vbeln 31 from 331
and s_posnr 10 20 and it gave me correct entries coz for order number 331 there were two entries in lips so multiple entries worked.
Please check the code with my code.
Please reward if useful.
