Saved fields empty when 3D window activates

I've created Text Fields and Check-boxes using LiveCycle Designer in my pdf template.
I create the 3D work in Reviewer, and use the template during Export to 3D.
Using 'Extend Features in Adobe Reader' the text entries, and filled in check-boxes can be saved with the pdf using Reader.
So far this is great!
The problem comes when the pdf is opened again and the 3D window is clicked to activate.
All the completed fields empty!
This is very bad!
Is there something I can do to stop the fields clearing on 3D activation?
thanks,
Ian

Saved text fields and check-boxes empty when 3D window activates

I've created Text Fields and Check-boxes in a pdf template, using LiveCycle Designer.
I create the 3D work in Reviewer, and use the pdf template during Export to 3D pdf.
Using 'Extend Features in Adobe Reader' the user can fill in the text fields, and click the check-boxes then save them with the pdf - just using Reader.
So far this is great!
The problem comes when the pdf is opened again and the 3D window (A3DR_3DFrame) activated.
All the completed fields empty!
This is not great at all!
I've did some tests and found that the filelds only clear if I include the Configs selection list box with the special name 'A3DR_Configs' in the template pdf. (A3DR_Configs lists the Configs stored in the 3D Reviewer file and the user can select the config from that list).
This is unfortunate, as the A3DR_Configs window is useful since it indicates to the user which 3D config is currently being viewed (ie the name of the current config stays highlighted).
Is this a bug that can be fixed or is there a workaround?
thanks,
Ian

TOA_DARA fields empty when Archiving SD invoices

Hi gurus,
We have a problem when archiving SD invoices. In some cases, when archiving, are ocurring errors that shows on SM58.
The error is always:
<<
ARCHIV_CREATE_TABLE SAP_AL_OUT 21.06.2011 18:22:23 SAP ArchiveLink: tipo objeto no asign.a ningún arc hivo (Customizing)
>>
And it's generated when saving the invoice from transaction VF01
We thought the problem could be that the object type was not maintained on the system but that's not the case, the problem is that the type is coming empty.
Watching inside the error, these fields are empty:
AR_OBJECT (should be SDINVOICE)
SAP_OBJECT (should be VBRK)
OBJECT_ID (should have the invoice number)
We were thinking about this TOA_DARA structure determination, but we could not see where it's been generating.
Do you know how is it possible that "sometimes" these fields go empty when processing sd invoices messages?
Thanks in advance

Hi Sudheer,
In my case, I saved the TOA_DARA params into an aux var just before calling the OPEN_FORM. Then, I checked the params before calling the function which archives.
clear toa_dara_aux.
toa_dara_aux = toa_dara.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN FORM'...
if toa_dara is initial.
 toa_dara = toa_dara_aux.
endif.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF_AND_ARCHIVE'
 EXPORTING
 arc_p = arc_params
 arc_i = toa_dara
 format = 'PDF'
 TABLES
 otf = otf.

Leave quantity field empty in PLD when...

Hi experts,
I have an Item which has no need to be quantified, so i want to leave the quantity field empty when that specific Item is in the rows of any marketing document.
Now I'm struggling with the if-then situation in the PLD.
I don't know how to manage that the quantity field will stay empty in that specific situation.
Is it possible at all? And if it is, is there somebody who can help me with this?
Gtrz,
Miranda.

Hello ..
Insist because they still do not understand what the real requirement ... my understanding is that you are using a non-inventoried item with quantity 1, and requires that:
1.la line does not appear or that otherwise
Appears 2.la line with zero quantity.
If it were the case, I could
1. condition all the detail fields to the condition FIELD: FIELD DESCRIPTION == TEXT ARTICLE with the name of the article ... thus the line does not appear when you see this article.
2. field condition the amount to the condition FIELD: QUANTITY == text field with the number "1".
Best regards

When does a selection in a text field in a Finder window lose focus?

Hello,
this problem has emerged on account of an Applescript file that needs to access a text selection (portion of a filename highlighted) in an open Finder window.
The bare minimum code to demonstrate the problem is this:
*tell application "System Events"*
* *tell process "Finder"*
* *set selText to value of attribute "AXSelectedText" of text field 1*
* *end tell*
*end tell*
other variants also exist, using "keystroke" but that does not work either. I am not asking help with Applescript here, it is here only to give a sense of the problem.
My conclusion thus far is that the selection lose focus before the script process can access it. In the best case I get the full filename by using "attribute" and copy of the alias onto the clipboard by using "keystroke".
So my problem is this:
It seems that the focus stays alive when one clicks on a menubar item, any click on any other item on the desktop, including windows of irrelevant applications, changes the focus from the selection within the text field corresponding to a filename, to the filename itself.
And my question is this:
Is there a changeable setting within the OS that has to do with how long the focus stays alive on a selection within a text field corresponding to a filename? If yes, how do I change it?
Thanks

Thanks for clarifying. Never heard it called a text field, just a label. So, exactly what are you trying to accomplish? Is it that you want AS to select the file, highlight its label so you can edit/change it with some other text? If so, have you checked out the Finder scripts installed on the machine, especially the Finder script *Add to Finder Names*?
UI Element Inspector calls the activated/editable filename a text field.
Actually I want to modify one of the stock Finder scripts. I want to be able to select part of the file name in the active text field of the Finder window, then activate the script, *have the script pick up the selection* as a text string then use it internally.
The bolded step is the one in question.
Every attempt fails on the fact that the focus is lost from the "text field" and it reverts to the label for the filename, if I may use this distinction, (or to "FinderItem" in the parlance of UIEI) as soon as another process begins, it seems. So when the script becomes active, but before any of the commands is executed, the selection disappears.
My guess is that it is not some absolute necessity but a setting that perhaps can be changed somehow.

Buttons in the Finder toolbar are there, but empty when window is active

When I am viewing a Finder window, and it is the foremost window, the buttons in the toolbar are empty:
When I click on another Finder window and the previously mentioned window goes into the background, I can see them:
Another interesting artifact of this issue is anywhere in menus there should be an arrow indicating a submenu, those arrows do not display. Also, in Preview, for example, the buttons are all empty.
An interesting correlation is that iPhoto also started giving me issues with thumbnails being black around this same time (2 days ago).
I believe the only thing that changed on my system was I installed drupal with homebrew.
Any help is appreciated, as the strangeness (and lack of usability) of these display issues concerns me.

The only way I found to fix this was to boot to the repair partition and reinstall OSX. All my settings and programs were retained.

How to make metadata fields required when creating folders

Hello all....
Related issue with SR 3-6472229431 and SR 3-6471130611.
We're using DIS 11.1.6 64-bits (2011_11_29 (rev 9756) 11.1.6.97) in a Windows 7 64-bits workstation (with UCM 11.1.1.5 in a Linux machine). The check-in of images to UCM goes fine.
I'm trying to make some metadata fields required when creating a folder. These fields are required when making a check-in, but not when creating folders.
Folders_g is enabled. DesktopTag too.
EDIT: Patch: 14695303 - WCC 11.1.1.5.0 BUNDLE ( MLR 16 ) NOV 6 2012 applied.
Is it possible?
Thanks for all.
Edited by: fgomes on 22/11/2012 03:24

After reading your response and rereading the original question a bit closer, the metadata prompting feature does not apply to creating new folders, only content.
Again, though, I think the focus here is in the wrong place. The metadata applied to a folder is intended to be ultimately applied to the content. You can build global rules that fire on submission of content to check if a field has a value, and throw an error if the value is empty.
If you expect users to create folders (and actually apply any metadata to the actual folder itself), you will be disappointed. Experience shows that users are not interested in that level of detail when creating content, let alone folders. Letting typical users create folders is a bad idea anyway, as they tend to create the same inefficient folder structures they previously created in file shares within Content Server.
If you need to tightly control folder attributes, you'll be better served by locking down the ability to create new folders. Otherwise you're looking at some type of customization. Keep in mind that you won't be able to customize the right click behavior of DIS. Any changes to DIS would have to be an enhancement request.

Configuration of IM Address Field in Jabber for Windows 10.5

Hey Guys,
Quick Overview of my setup:
Jabber for Windows 10.5
CUCM 10.5
IM and Presence 10.5
Microsoft Active Directory on Windows Server 2012R2
LDAP Integration via EDI with Directory URI Attribute set to "mail"
Voice Services Domain is different from the Active Directory Domain
I'm having problems getting the Jabber for Windows client to display the correct IM Address when looking up a user. The Cisco documentation for configuring this is a little mystifying, but I finally tracked down the the jabber-config.xml line "<UserAccountName>mail</UserAccountName>" under <Directory> but setting this causes some strange behaviour where the IM address becomes [email protected]@voiceservicesdomain.com.
If you leave the field empty then the client resolves [email protected] Now I have set the Directory URI in CUCM to be the "mail" attribute, and I have synced this with the users but this is ignored by the Jabber Client. The IM and Presence server is set to use Directory URI as well.
The only way I have managed to get the correct IM Address to display is to set another Active Directory Attribute field to "firstname.lastname", for example you set the "ipPhone" attribute in Active Directory.
According to the Documentation this should work, but does anyone know why the client insists on using either [email protected] or when set to email it insists on suffixing "@voiceservicesdomain" to the IM Address?
Interested to see who else is hitting this issue.
Cheers,
James

Hi James,
we have exact the same problem. Did you find a solution for the problem?

Bypass Required Field Validation when needed in PDF Dynamic Form

I faced a tricky situation, where some fields are required, but we need to allow bypass required (mandatory) validation rule when saving the form, and require to fill such fields when submitting the form. In other words, provide flexible control when to turn On / Off this feature.
I wanted to implement a flexible solution, and I will post my findings here. Appreciate your feedback for improvements.
Steps:
1. Mark rquired fields as required.
2. Specify "Empty Message" as "This field cannot be left blank", or similar.
3. Specify "Validation Script Message" as "This field must have a proper value before submit", or similar.
4. Create a Global Form Level Variable something like "StopTotalValidation" and default as "1" means by default, Turn Off Validation for some cases.
5. For the fields which require this type of control, add the script (to be defined later) on the "validate" event:
myTools.validateForRequiredField(this);
6. Create a Script Object "myTools" and add the following script:
function initStringFunc() {
//call this function on Document Initialize
String.prototype.trim = function() {
    return this.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,"");
String.prototype.ltrim = function() {
    return this.replace(/^\s+/,"");
String.prototype.rtrim = function() {
    return this.replace(/\s+$/,"");
String.prototype.isEmpty = function() {
    return (this == null) || this.trim() == "";
function setNodeProperty(theNode, theProperty, newValue) {
   if (theNode[theProperty] != newValue) {
        theNode[theProperty] = newValue;
function isNodePropertyEmpty(theNode, theProperty) {
    var result;
    if (theNode == null || theNode[theProperty] == null) {
        result = true;
    } else {
        result = theNode[theProperty].isEmpty();
    return result;
function disableTotalValidation() {
    StopTotalValidation.value = "1";
function enableTotalValidation() {
    StopTotalValidation.value = "0";
function isTotalValidationOn() {
    return StopTotalValidation.value != "1";
function isTotalValidationOff() {
    return StopTotalValidation.value == "1";
const conRequired = "(required)";
function validateForRequiredField(theFld) {
    // Bypass Required Field Validation when Global Validation is Off.
    var result=false;
    if (theFld) {
        if (theFld.mandatory && theFld.mandatory == "error") {
            if (myTools.isNodePropertyEmpty(theFld, "rawValue")) {
                myTools.setNodeProperty(theFld, "rawValue", conRequired);
            if (isTotalValidationOn()) {
                if (isNodePropertyEmpty(theFld, "rawValue") || theFld.rawValue.toLowerCase() == conRequired.toLowerCase()) {
                    result = false;
                } else {
                    result = true;
            } else {
                result = true;
    } else {
        result = false;
    return result;
7. Now, on the click of "Save" button call the function "disableTotalValidation()" and on the click of "Submit" button call the function "enableTotalValidation()".
I have just finished implementing the above solution, and as per my initial testing, it is working fine.
I will post this to my Google Docs workspace, and provide updates their.
Tarek.

Hi Tarek,
I see what you mean in relation to clarity if you used the form variable approach. It was only a suggestion. Like so many things in LC, there is more than one way to finding a solution to a problem.
The triple equal sign (===) is testing if the condition is equal, but to a higher standard. It is testing if the values are identical to each other. For example if you were testing if a textfield was empty, with Equality (==) you might have this:
if (this.rawValue == null || this.rawValue == "") {
     // Some script
If you use Identity (===) you can do the same thing with less script:
if (this.rawValue === null) {
     // Some script
It is also useful when testing the value of an object, but also the type (eg string, number, Boolean).
Lastly, it can be used for non-identity (!==).
In relation to createNode() etc, apart from John's blog, it is covered in the LC documents: http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/livecycle/documentation.html. Look for the scripting guides and the guide to the XML Form Object Model.
Good luck,
Niall

Avoid to display empty report viewer window?

Hi, We use CR4E with Thick Client environment. First we prepare a report as ReportClientDocument. Then we display this with the Crystal Report thick-client viewer. According to the report parameter it is possible that the report does not find data. In this case an empty report viewer window is displayed. We want to avoid that. Is there a way to check the report if it find data or not (e.g. catch the SQL of report). Thx. Peter 

Hallo, I´ve got the same problem.
I want to pass only specific values to
the report. But when I try to launch the viewer,
a parameter field page is displayed. When
I click on "OK" without entering some values the
report is displayed correctly. How can I turn
of displaying this page?
Thanks

Mail account INCOMING MAIL field empty

Since upgrading to 10.7.2 I am unable to connect to a MacMe/iCloud account from my wife's iMac 20/ Mid 2007 though there is no problem with her GMail account or connecting to a MacMail account from my login on the same machine.
When examining the MacMail account in Mail/Preferences/Accounts the INCOMING MAIL SERVER field is empty, greyed & displaying mail.example.com, and unselectable. If I make any changes to the account info I get an "cannot have empty incoming mail server field" error messages when saving.
I created a duplicate of the account with a different name entering mail.me.com in the INCOMING MAIL SERVER field. When I made this account active the field again defaulted to empty.
Migrating to iCloud did not resolve this issue.

Yes. you should keep your media in iTunes, and indeed you should also keep a backup of your library as well. if you have the device set up for manual management then the content would remain on it when deleted from the library, but you would have no way to restore the device if there was a problem.

Dear All,
We have a requirement of entering Customer Class while creating Customer.(Version R 12.0.6)

Please guide me how to move the field to Main Creation window to ensure Entry and avoid wastage of time.
