Size of Forms: Forms 6i

Why oh why can I not get the form to scroll to show everything. It doesnt matter what size (height) I set the form/canvass/window in the property pallette, it still cuts off the buttons and fields etc at the bottom of the form. I even have a vertical scrollbar but this doesnt help. What am I doing wrong.
Thanks
Simon.

If you are web deploted it may be because your applet area height is not tall enough (see your HTML file or the formsweb.cfg file)
If you are client server then the problem may be that the viewport on your canvas is not big enough.

Set maximum size in Text Form Field Options for a field in bi publisher RTF

Hi All,
How to set maximum size in Text Form Field Options for a field in bi publisher RTF.
I have a RTF whch is having a field in that i need to add some validation condition but after adding certain condition in Add help text tab ,it is not accepting after certain length, how i can increase the length to unlimited,please help me on this
Thnaks

Form fields have some restrictions if your are using version lower than 11g.
They can accommodate only 393 chars. You can add the text in both status bar and help key, which can in total consume 393 chars.
If your code logic is more than that, it can be split into multiple form fields as Avinash suggested or you can use sub template logic and handle coding over there. Again in sub template code can be within/outside form fields.
So there is no option for user to increase the size of form field.

Shrinking the size of a form

Hi
After I create a form (using Adobe X Pro/Live Cycle) can I reduce size of the form before releasing it for general use? I know how to optimize a pdf I fill in... this is before that, while the form is being created... The form I created is just over 1 MG and our procurement system doesn't allow attachments that size (and the user base isn't that Adobe sophisticated to be able to optimize the form on their own).
thanks
Mark.

Two areas to check
1) Are you using images? If so verify that you've optimized the size of the image before adding it to the form
2) Are you embedding fonts? If the fonts are commonly installed on the users system don't embed the fonts

How to calculate the size of web forms in hyperion planning?

Hi Experts,
I am trying to calculate the size of planning forms in Hyperion smart view., but i am unable to find out the way to calculate.
Can you pls explain how to calculate the size of web form in Smart view?
--- Srini.

Hi Srini,
First, here is what Oracle says:
Data Form Size Estimation:
To get a rough estimate of data form size, open the data form and select File > Save As from the browser. The size of the .HTML file is the portion of the data form that changes based on grid size. The .JS files remain the same size and can be cached, depending on browser settings. Information such as data form definitions, pages, and .gif files are not compressed when data forms are opened and sent to the Web browser.
I have not been able to find out using their method.
In any case, you can find out the size of grid by using below
1. Right click on the form grid and click "View source"
2. Save the source file as "Example.html"
3. Right click the saved file and click "Properties"
4. The Form size whould be same as that of file..
Let me know if it helps.
Cheers

Font size and user form

Hello,
I'd like to know if somebody find a solution for the font size issue on user form.
since BO 2005, the user can change the font size. the application will format all the controls of form with the good size.
However, the layout does not follow very well for user form.
If the font size is changed while a user form is open, the aplication will reformat it perfectly, the controls are bigger, and the distance between the controls are ok
But when the user form is open again, it keeps the distance and control size of the XML file but change the font size, so the layout is very bad, sometime the static text or the caption could not be read, so it's not possible to use the form as is.
I use XML to create form, I haven't try by code, but in my case, I can't use code because there are a lot of controls in the form.
Any idea if it's possible to call the Business One procedure to resize the form and its control (not only the font) ?
Thanks you

Try resetting the FontSize of all items (and columns) to the one you used for the design after loading the form.
I use a simple loop over all items and an inner loop for matrixes and grids to set the font size in their columns.
Now users can have a larger font, but the added forms will use the original design's font size.
This approach has some drawbacks:
- Added forms use a different font size
- Some of the controls will still get their size based on the system default font size
(checkboxes, drill-down arrays, headercolumns, perhaps more?).
- Focused item is not resized by this (so far I have been able to work around this).
- Changing the font size while the form is open, will break the design as the
font size does not change, but the control sizes do.
This is not an ideal solution, but it might give some help, until a better one presents itself.
If the users don't use a dramatically different font size, my form design work quite ok,
even with the drawbacks or at least it is better than nothing. It is a good idea to test
the form with different font sizes to make it more flexible.

Resize called form but maintain size of calling form

Hi,
From my main menu I call Form B.
Form B has only 4 items and a menu (DEFAULT&SBAR) is attached to this form. The form B when called is about the size of a $1 bill or £5 note.
The mdi window in which Form B is contained is about the same size. Just enough to "hug" Form B.
The problem is that when I exit Form B the main form (Calling form (menu)) resizes to the same size as the called form (Form b).
Not sure what is causing this. Does anyone know maybe ?
Thanks.
N.

You can add a WHEN-FORM-NAVIGATE trigger to the calling form to resize it's window. This trigger will fire whn the called form is close and the calling for is re-activated.
Here's an example of a trigger I used in a calling form.
IF :global.maximize = 'Y'
THEN SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW, WINDOW_STATE, MAXIMIZE);
SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY('KING_CANVAS', WINDOW_STATE, MAXIMIZE);
ELSE SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW, WINDOW_SIZE, 580, 365);
SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY('KING_CANVAS', WINDOW_STATE, MAXIMIZE);
END IF;

ERROR 1012703
*"Unknown calculation type [0] during the dynamic calculation. Only default agg/formula/time balance operations are handled."*
There is an error in a formula(s), therefore, no calculations will work. The problem is that when you have the outline open in Edit mode and you try to 'Validate', it does not identify any of these errors, nor does it write it to a log. However, you can go one by one and validate each formula. So any time you delete a member or modify a member name, be sure that this member is not included in any formula.

Hi,
I still do not have my desired solution.
I can not work with userexit_move_field_to_vbap because this userexit is called at the begin of creating a sales document.
With Userexit_field_modification I still have the problem that I loose the value in VBAP-KTGRM when I leave the dynpro.
My coding Inside Userexit_field_modification:
CASE screen-name.
    WHEN 'VBAP-KTGRM'.
Set to INPUT on when in Create or Change mode
      IF ( t180-trtyp = charh OR t180-trtyp = charv ).
         screen-input = 1.
      ENDIF.
ENDCASE.
These code lines make the field editable but I see no chance to save the entered value of VBAP-KTGRM.
Thanks again,
Tobi

How can I set the font size of a form field in the fdf file?

I need to dynamically set the font size of a field to accommodate text of varying length, automatic font size won't work in this case. It seems like this can be done in the FDF but I have tried several variants without success. Could someone help out with a real example of what the syntax in the fdf should look like.
I am using Acrobat Professional 8.1 but the created fdf will need to work with Reader also.

I think that the font size has to be set in the form itself, not the FDF.

Can I shrink the size of a form text box based on the content?

We are helping a customer migrate from some MS Word forms to use pdf forms. We are screenscraping the data from an AS400 green screen system and populating these new pdf forms with data. however some of the text boxes are in the middle of a sentence and the text box needs to be large enough to fit 50 characters but there are many times when the data we are entering is much less than 50. The resulting document looks very strange with all of that extra white space in the middle of a sentence due to the size of the text box.
So can we somehow shrink the size of the text box to fit the number of characters in the box?
I considered making the box smaller and setting the font size to auto but I think that would look even more strange to have a word with smaller font in the middle of a sentence.
Thanks,
Trent

Sorry, I should have mentioned I am using acrobat professional 9. I see that I can change the size of the text field when I am designing the form but what I don't see is how to dynamically change the size of the text field based on what data is put inside it.
Thanks,

Change Page Size of a Form

I created a form in Adobe Acrobat Pro from a spreadsheet that I had printed to PDF. However, the PDF was in a landspace orientation rather than a portrait orientation. Does anyone know how I can change the page size and orientation of the form. I tried opening it importing it into LifeCycle Designer, but it messes up my java script calculations. If I print it to another PDF it no longer remains a fillable form.

You really need to go back to your spreadsheet program and properly orient it there. Consider a PDF only a piece of paper that you created. You might be able to create the new PDF and then use replaces pages in the old PDF to keep the form fields. This last step is the typical process to keep the form fields. You will probably still have to move the fields. I am just not sure if the orientation and such will be kept with the replace pages, but that is where I would start. You could also copy the fields from one PDF to the other.

Can someone help with auto-size fields in forms?

I created a form in Acrobat for my team members with auto-size text fields that allow to shrink the text when the field size is not large enough to show the entire text. When I then open the same form file with Adobe Reader on my machine with text that has shrunk in some field, I can see all the text and have also a scroll function when the text size has reached its lower limits and there is still more text to show.
However, when I receive the filled out forms back from other team members' iPads (they use my template created with Acrobat), the text didn't shrink as on a PC version and the scroll function is disabled. I checked the template and the fields are correctly set to auto-size left and they do work on my PC's and laptop's Adobe Reader. But the iPad version of Adobe Reader may cause some issues.
Can anybody help with solutions?
Thank you!
Klaus

The filled version of your PDF document (20140722 Daily Meeting Report...pdf) is no longer a PDF form because it has been flattened.
Once an interactive PDF form (such as your template version) is flattened, all form fields are replaced with images of filled data. You can no longer interact with form fields, edit form data, or tap/click any buttons in the flattened PDF document. That is the reason why the text in auto-size text fields did not shrink.
When you email a PDF document (including a PDF form) in Adobe Reader for iOS, the E-mail Document dialog is displayed.
In this particular case, your team member must have selected "Share Flattened Copy".
If you would like to keep the interactivity of a PDF form, you can select "Share Original Document". Please advise your team members to select the "Share Original Document" option when emailing filled forms.
Unfortunately, once flattened, a PDF document cannot be reverted back to the original "unflattened" state. However, if your team members still have the original filled forms, they can resend the forms with the "Share Original Document" option.
Please let us know if you have further questions.
