Numerical fields issue.

I'm new to designing forms using LiveCycle. I'm on my second form, learning as I go -no tutor, so the way in which I've gone about producing my form may not be the tidiest or follow conventional, which of course may be the issue.
In my form I have a table to caputure expenditure. It has 13 columns, these are text field read only, 2 x numerical read only, numerical calculated read only, 2 x numerical user required, numerical calculated read only, 2 x numerical user required, 4 x numerical calculated read only.
I've managed to get all calculations working.
I've not set any validation criteria, should I?
I can't get the cells that are set for user entry to actually allow user entry despite that being set in the object permission.
I also can't see how to get the table to split over a page break.
Can anyone suggest what I need to check to get my form at least allow the user to enter data. btw I have text fields requiring user entry and these work.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Yes, well if you were hoping for one-button colorgrade, then maybe COLOR isn't the panacea that was hoped for. It doesn't really behave the way the advertising trumpets its behavior, and certainly a quick and lovely pre-digested project will round trip predictably enough to make a slick public presentation while someone swans around swigging Fiji water and tweaking things that most professional colorists wouldn't waste much time with.
So then there's the messy real world.
I read somewhere about blurs in the ColorFX room and geometry having an effect on the fields on clips when process through Color. Is this a fault / bug and should I try and avoid using these parts of the filters, unless the timelines is progressive?
Its not a fault or bug, but its the way that the field dominance is hardly addressed. There is a bug where COLOR drops into a field-blend mode if Geometry is made part of the pass-through, even though all Geometry is ignored within Quicktime workflows. There is a hint of "Shake" in the COLORFX room, but unfortunately, no field dominance code was written into the nodes, as there is no "FileIn" model to follow. As Zeb has pointed out, constructing a split odd/even-field effect tree is the only approach available when dealing with interlaced footage. Progressive is not entirely immune, either, especially if the material has been ingested as "PsF". There is still dominance associated with that. Motion is not obviously affected the way true interlace gets corrupted, but it will still compromise the export quality. This is especially dangerous with some fake progressive formats like 24P HDV. You can sorta kinda get away with it... but eventually it is going to catch up -- and likely at some far-too-late point when trying to export to tape or make a DVD or something that the waste materials will hit the fan.

Format of numeric field cannot retain via Live Office

In Webi, I changed the format of an numeric field to 2 decimal places. When I retrieved this field to Excel via Live Office, I found the format of 2 decimal places cannot be retained. It ended up displayed in 1 decimal places.
I found when a webi report exported to Excel, the format can be retained.
Does anyone know if this is a product design or product issue? Thanks.
Regards,
Gloria

Hi Gloria,
I had a look at this in XI release 3.0 and received the same issue. The only way I could get this to work was to use the FormatNumber() method. This returns the value as a string, which live office represents with the trailing 0.
So if the cell value was 12345.6, then FormatNumber([my cell]; "#,##0.00") will display 12345.60. This will display correctly in Excel (except that it is justified as text) when brought in by live office.
This more of a work around than a fix, so you may want to raise a case.

How to format a numeric field in ES2 ?

Hi...
I'm trying to format a numeric field in LiveCycle designer using six digit and allowing zero's "000000"…
I went to patterns for setting the format, unfortunately I couldn't know how figure it out?
I’ve tried this pattern: null{}|zero{000000}|num.integer{}
It didn’t work!
what actually I’m looking for is six digit at all time for instance if enter value of 1 in the field expect to appear 000001 ,and if i enter value 567 the appearance will be 000567 in the field and so on...etc.
Another issue is how to validate a range of numeric value like 000001-999999 so that the input will be only restricted by those values…
Hope this is clear! And sorry for my bad English
Best Regards...

Hi,
could you please share your solution?
I have a similar problem. I need to allow zeros before my integers to be inputed to the form.
thanks.

How to right align a read only numeric field in a panel form layout

Hi, does anyone know how to right align a read only numeric field in a panel form layout? I am using: Style Class = AFFieldNumberMarker, but it only seems to work if the field is disabled. Disabling the field gives it a difference appearance that does not look right on our forms. These are calculated fields, which cannot be modified, so read only is necessary.
I have looked online for some answers, and it seems that others are having similar issues.
I have tried different combinations for the properties, but so far I cannot get it to work.
Thanks

Numeric column, last digit of a numeric field is replaced by zero

I have a annoying issue, this started when we upgraded to oracle10g and win 2k3
The code downloads the rows and loads into text file..
But sometimes the last digit of numeric field is replaced by zero.. e.g the value of field is 123.13 then will be displayed as 123.10
And again if the same code is rerun the output is correct!!!
This happens once in week, but no clue!! why it happens!!!

But the oracle server is not replaced.. it is same what it was earlier...
Only the application server is upgraded to win2003..
And started to use "Oracle in OraClient 10G.." previously used "Microsoft ODBC for Oracle".
And if its settings issue, Doesn't be happening consistantly.?

Numeric fields not aligned correctly in report preview

Hi
I have the next problem:
On my report, I aligned the numeric fields to the right of a column, but when i run the preview on ASP, the numeric fields are aligned to the left.
But when I export the report to PDF, the numbers align correctly.
I figured out a workaround to this, introducing the numeric fields into text fields, since they do align correctly. The problem is that I have too many reports to apply this workaround to all of them.
Could it be a known issue of Crystal Reports XI?
Is there any other workaround?
Thanks in advance

Hi Poonam
Maybe I wasn't quite explicit before,
In preview mode my report displays correctly as well. The problem comes when I run it through an ASP, which is needed for my application.
I'm running the CR version 11.5.0.313. I was asking if it could be a known issue of XI version because when I had version 9 I didn't have this problem.
It could also be that through the time, I changed something in the way the report is displayed, and didn't realize about that before, but I haven't been lucky to notice any change related.
Thanks for your time,
Gil

MS Excel automatically converts numeric fields to date format

I have at least 2 different spreadsheets where this happens. I maintain them for months, adding, changing, deleting data. They contain lots of data elements (numeric, text, date, etc). Some columns are all numeric, some all dates,
etc. Then suddenly when I open the spreadsheet, my numeric formatted data has been converted to date format. I see lots of # signs in cells, which is an indication that this happened, and selecting an affected cell shows a date, generally in the
early 1900s, depending on the original numeric value that was in the cell. I convert the fields back to numeric, but sometime later the same problem occurs -- numeric fields are now date formatted. I cannot identfy any specific change that I make
that would cause this. And I only recognize it as having occurred when I open the spreadsheet, not anytime during its maintenance. I am using MS Excel 2007 SP2 in a Windows XP SP3 environment. The machine is well maintained and updated /
kept current by our corporate IT group. I have done numerous Internet searches and cannot find anything like this in any other blog. Thanks for your help.

Hi,
Were some of the these data imported from a .csv file? As far as I know, data formats cannot be saved in .csv file. If this is the situation, try this:
Save a copy of your .csv file changing the extension of your file from .csv to .txt
open excel.
go to DATA --> Import external data --> Import data --> browse to find the .txt file you made earlier
The text import wizard should open.
Click on delimited, click next
click comma, click next
You should now see all columns appear with heading GENERAL --> highlight the columns with the values that are changing to date and click TEXT (top right) instead. The heading of these columns should now change to TEXT.
click finish
Excel will now treat the column as text when it imports the data and will not change them to dates
If this is not the situation, this issue might be caused by some add-ins.
Start Excel in safe mode: Press and hold the
CTRL key, and then click the Excel program to start. Then, click File > Open to open the Excel file.
If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Office program, we can try to disable them.

Numeric Field in Adobe Form

Hi,
I'm trying to display a numeric field in an Adobe Form. The issue is that the decimal part of the the field is getting truncated when I view the Adobe Form in Print Preview.
The numeric field is of the form -6,213.19. In the form the value appears as -6,213.1 . I'm not able to understand why this value is getting truncated. I've tried all the numeric and decimal patters available but with no luck.
Could you please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Sandeep.

Hi
You dont specify any patterns. You just simply drag and drop the Numeric field on the layout and then right click on the field
go to Pallets -> Object -> Value tab -> here you specify your value -6,213.19.->In Binding tab -> Data format as Float. and then check the priview in PDF its printing the same as -6,213.19.
Try this once. It will work i checked it . Its working
Thanks

Black + In Numerical Fields

Alright....so I have a little hiccup with numerical fields. I have a field set up in a subform and set to expand to fit the inputted values. When I type a value in though and the box expands, a black small box with a "+" in it appears covering up part of the number. Any idea why this happens? The subform is set to flow, everything else works fine, and the box appears to expand to the right size minus this box. Any assistance, as always, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Hi,
The plus (white on black) indicates that the contents have overflowed the field. If this is not he case because you have set the field to expand and it is doing this OK, then Acrobat may just "think" that the contents are overflowing.
I can't replicate your issue. Someone may be able to help you if you post the form to the forum.

Display pattern of numeric field in adobe reader ver 8 and 9.

I have added a text field to my form and have set the following properties:
Type: Numeric field
Limit length to visible area: checked (so that it accepts upto 9 digits)
display pattern: zzz9
data pattern: zzz9
data format: Integer
When I type "123456789" in the field, adobe reader version 7 and 9 are adding commas to the number and are displaying it as "123,456,789" while adobe reader 8 displays it the way i want "123456789"
Appreciate if someone can quickly provide some guidance here.

The issue is that the pattern that you are applying from the field cannot be applied to your input so the default pattern for numeric fields is being applied (hence the 123,456,789). If you make sure that your numeric field is set for integer (Binding tab/Data Format). Then set the display pattern to num{zzzzzzzz9}. It will work.
The default pattern is held in the XDP template. It is created based on your locale. If you click on the XML Source tab (between Preview and Master Pages - if it is not visible then you can make it visible on the View/XML Source menu)then do a serach ctrl-F for numberPattern you will see where it is defined in the template. If you modify this one then it will only be applied for this form. Any new forms will revert back to the old pattern.

Regular Expression for floating point numeric field

Hi,
the requirements for the field are as follows:
- floating point numeric field 7 digits in length
- the field must contain a decimal (dot) and either one, two or three digits to the right of the decimal
- (leading zeroes are required if needed to fill up the 7 characters)
My example shown below does not check for the length of 7 characters:
public static void main(String[] args) {
    String str = "04100.0";
    System.out.println(str);
    Pattern f_1To7 = Pattern.compile("^([0-9]*\\.[0-9]{1,3})$");
    Matcher matcher = f_1To7.matcher(str);
    if (matcher.find()) {
        // yes, we've found something
        System.out.println("We matched the pattern!");
    } else {
        System.out.println("Better luck next time!");
}When changing the pattern to
^([0-9]*\\.[0-9]{1,3}){7}$the whole expression will be repeated 7 times - but I would like to have to whole String to be 7 characters long.
Here are some examples for the field:
050.500 or 04100.0Thanks a lot and best regards,
- Stephan

...Assuming that you are going to use Java*, you could use a lookahead at the start of your regex:
"^(?=\\d{4,6}\\.\\d{1,3}$).{8}$"Meaning:
^             # match the start of the string
(?=           #
\d{4,6}     #   ensure that there are between 4 and 6 digits...

\d{1,3}     #   followed by 1 to 3 digits
.{8}$         # match exactly 8 characters directly followed by the end of the string* or some other language that has look-ahead support (most PCRE implementations have them)

Cannot update table data based on values of numeric fields

I have a button on a form with two numeric fields: P11_numeric1 and P11_numeric2.
I want to be able to either run a stored procedure or execute the update logic. We're on apex 4.0.
I tried the follow syntax in a process run by a button:
begin
schema.procname(:P11_numeric1,:P11_numeric2);
end;
And nothing happened.
If I try to run the proc in toad with hard coded parameter values, the proc works.
I tried this:
begin
update schema.tablename
set value=:P11_numeric1
where id=:P11_numeric2;
commit;
end;
And this doesn't work.
I tried:
begin
update schema.tablename
set value=1
where id=2;
commit;
end;
And that worked, so I assume the issue is with getting the numeric field values. Am I using incorrect syntax?

I'm on apex 4.0.2 btw. I had two main problems: 1) the process that my procedure was in was in a sequence number lower than the MRU process sequence number. I didn't want to use the MRU so I changed it to being called by ajax calls only (which I don't have on the page, effectively not firing this process on page submit). Changing the sequence number of the process call to the procedure higher then allowed me to run the stored procedure.
The next problem was that the fields weren't being passed into the proc.
It looks like the type of the field made a bit of a difference to sending in the parameter for the procedure. The data is either integer or numeric and if the fields were set to a text field, and the proc was changed to accept varchar2 data and convert using to_number in the proc that the data was accepted and was fine. For the integer fields, I was able to (and wanted to) change the field type to display only as this is a read only screen with an button to save the data. For the numeric fields, for some reason the display field type did not allow the field value to be passed to the stored proc.
I'll take a look at the session values not getting set but has anyone heard of that happening to display only fields with numeric data specifically?

Why is a time/attendance form with many numeric fields slow to fill out?

A form created in LiveCycle 9 and saved as PDF has a table with many numeric fields to fill in number of hours under days of the week and type of activity. The bottom row of the table has total numeric foelds that calculate the total hours. I tried removing the totals thinking that it would speed up filling in the document but it didn't. Is there some limit to the number of fioelds a documents can have without slowing it down? What can be done to speed it up?

I have this issue as well. I created an expense tracking form using the Acrobat X basic calculation tool (not javascripts) and it takes 10 - 15 seconds to move to the next field on an iPad or Android device. On my PC it works great. HELP!
I also tried using a trial version of Acrobat XI with the same result.

Making Numeric field blank

Hi Experts ,
i have a requirement to make the numeric field "blank" in some rows of internal table .
its about vendor
whenever any vendor will repeat , i need to display 3 numeric fields "blank" , in that particular row .
please help me on this issue .
thanks in advance .
vijeta

Hi,
One very important thing we cannot make numeric field as blank is can be made initial i.e. 0.
So we have to make the field as character then we can make it blank by initializing it.
thanx.

What is the initial value for a numeric field ??

Can someone tell me what the INITIAL VALUE FOR A NUMERIC FIELD is ?? Thank you
Rod.

Using the following...
   class MyClass
     int myvar1; // Default initial value
     int myvar2 = 3; // Default initial value and default value
     MyOtherClass myclass1; // Default initial value
     void doit()
       int mylocal1; // No value
       MyOtherClass myclass2; // No value
All number member variables, like myvar1 start off with andefault initial value which is zero. For booleans this is false. Object reference variables, like myclass1, have a null value.
All local numeric variables are considered undefined. So mylocal1 and myclass2 are undefined. Before you can use them you must explicitly provide a value.
Finally note that myvar2 will have two values during class instantiation. Initially it will have a value of zero. Sometime later it will have the value of 3. (When that happens is very definitely outside the scope of what this forum covers. If you want to know then ask in the advanced forum.)
