Text Field don't show its content in Reader 9.0

Hello, I'm working on a pdf in which there are a 3D Annotation and a Text Field.
I embedded a simple Javascript script to the 3D Annotation to change Text Field's value.
Here's the code:
host.getField("current_selection").value = "some text";
// "current_selection" is the name of the Text
It works well if I open the file with Acrobat Reader 8 but if I use Adobe Reader 9 I got a strange behavior: the string won't display in the Text Field! If I press ESC or if I resize the program window then the string becomes displayed.
Any ideas?
Thank You
Fabio

  • Text Fields don't show up in preview, hard to edit Webpage Template (monster).  Is there an easier w

    hi there
    While I'm just a beginner right now it/I'm an experienced computer user and I have really enjoyed/but when I'm looking at it now I'm trying to use flash to edit a website template, for example monster templates. I bought a template from the site and nine trying to edit it now and well it just seems like it's a very very long process to do something kind of where I just want to look at the page and I want to edit the text and only I go to bed doesn't seem to be the case. So I'll show you what I mean.
    When I'm using the program and I'm in Adobe flash I'm looking now at the screen inside the program and there's no text I see the graphics images and there's no text and also is that some type of way where it's easy to navigate link to link where I can just edit the text what supposed to be in there rather than search for the funeral push page up and down until I come across just a white background with tax and then have to edited which is pretty confusing because I don't know where that's located but I the general idea that if you change it but surely there must be an easier way.
    So basically I'm including a screenshot that shows you exactly what I'm talking about. Basically once again I'm in fashion items Sandy text so it's kinda hard to see what was going on or whatever so you can see the snow text located in the thing but however when I publish the file yeah you can see the text and everything I'm kinda looking for some type of you well be able to see this and just edited really. I know there are other programs out there like SWF edited her or quick note to some like that. But I really wanted to use flash, unexperienced Photoshop user and I really love all Adobe products and I really think that this is the master program to use however I'm really don't want it as of right now it's been about 40 days and nine still a bit lost navigating through the program will I'm just really just China entities tax bills and just go through the site. Now I realize I should have the respect for beautiful program like this and it's not been a be set up to the way that I'm hoping it Siskind be a point-and-click editor I understand that. I'm just wondering if anybody has any type suggestions or perhaps of I'm missing something which is fantastic.

    Your posting is very difficult to understand due to your apparent limited ability to speak/write English.  If you cannot find the text you want to change within the fla file that came with your purchase, then it is highly possible the text is assigned via Actionscript code.  The text could be located in the Actionscript within the fla file, in a separate '.as' file, or in a separate '.txt' or  '.xml' file.  What other types of files did you receive with your purchase?

  • Text files don't show on fillable form after saving on a mac

    I have a fillable form with text and check fileds on it, if a user filles it on a windows pc and saves it all works fine, but if a user does the same thing on a MAC then the text fields don't show.

    Avoid touching any PDF (in particular any PDF form file) with Preview.

  • Is it possible to show/hide a result text field only if another Text field is visible and has content?

    Hi
    Please could someone tell me if it is possible to make a text field visible only if another text field is visible and has content?
    I have this which works for the content part, but sometimes the field is hidden, so the script must not apply.
    var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
    event.target.display = v1 !== ""  ?
    display.visible : display.hidden;
    What I need is something along the lines of:
    var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
    event.target.display = (v1 !== "" && v1!=="Hidden") ?
    display.visible : display.hidden;
    Thanks for any advise.

    Thanks for the hints which led me to the right solution. I created a query to check if the trigger for the visibility was there or not, and this works. The script I have used is:
    var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
    var v2 = getField("Checkbox").value;
    var v3 = getField("Text2").value;
    event.target.display = (v1=="" || v3=="" && v2=="On" ) ?
    display.visible : display.hidden;

  • Apple mail search finds the message but cannot show its content, why?

    Hi
    I have a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion installed on it. All the updates are also installed.
    The problem is that I can quickly find a message among 100,000 messages sorted in different folders in Apple Mail, but as I click on the message, it keeps showing "loading..." and never shows the content of that message.
    When I manually go to that message, Mail shows the content properly. So it happens only when I try to see the content of the message that has been found through search function.
    Any ideas?
    thanks,

    text fields on an iDVD page show up before everything else - i.e. the slide show and movie fields sweep in later.
    anyone know how to change this so they all come in together? either all sweep in or all are there from the start?

  • Rich text field will not show proper font attributes! (Bug? - RTF OTF font handling)

    I created two text form fields (rich text)...
    In Windows 7, Write program (using it to format the rich text content)... I edited my two lines.
    Line one: mix of two font sizes and a few attribute changes... pasted into the first text field perfectly.
    Line two: similar to the above... pasted into the second text field but the font is appearing in bold! It is not bold in the source, nor is it preset in the text field properties! I even pasted it back into Write AND Word and it pastes as I intended it.
    Why is Adobe doing this? I even tried to toggle >Text Style > bold on/off, clear formatting... these functions do not work!
    If I bring up the properties toolbar (Ctrl-E), bold is toggled on but I cannot toggle it off, I can add underline, I can change the font size.
    UPDATE: It seems that Adobe Acrobat is NOT reading the OTF font correctly! If I change to a different font, in the same family, the problem changes from set on bold to set on italics!
    It is specifically related to the font I am using but is ONLY a problem when using Rich Text fields. In other words, the entire font family works perfectly if I inserted a text box or use the font family in any other Adobe product.
    I have submitted a bug report: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en

    Another possibly revealing clue is that when I go to Text Field Properties > Appearance tab > Text / Font, I see the entire family of this particular font. However, when editing the text in the properties toolbar (Ctrl-E), only a small sub-set of this font family appears and the attributes behave in an odd manner. Example: normal font appears as italics but if I switch on BOLD, the italic attribute is gone... and other strange attribute problems.

  • Notes and other fields don't show up in Contacts on my iPod Classic 160GB

    I don't know if this is just a bug or if I missed a new option somewhere to hide/show Notes and other fields in Contacts, but they don't show up at all. This problem is specific to the new 160GB iPod I bought today. Notes show up fine on my 4GB Nano (2G) and old 3G iPod.
    I would at least like confirmation from some other people that the Notes field is not showing up in your contacts.
    I just ran through a few other contacts and it appears this is a more serious sync problem. There is a field listed in my Address Book as "work" that is showing up as "home" on the 160. The field is identified correctly on my nano. I also noticed that the field for the iChat id is completely missing from all the iPods.
    This is a pretty serious bug for anyone that uses their iPods for Contacts. Since someone is bound to ask, yes I did try resetting the iPod. I even went as far as completely restoring it from both Windows and the Mac, but always saw the same problem, so I went back to my default Mac setup.

    I did another restore and let iTunes move my whole library over before going back to the summary and syncing contacts, but I got the same result. No notes on any contacts and various contact fields that are named incorrectly compared to the Address Book originals.
    I would appreciate confirmation of this bug or people with 80/160 classics identifying that notes due show up in their contacts so that I can post an accurate description to the bug report form.
    Thanks!

  • Parameter fields don't show up on the report

    CA Forum: Exporting
    Hello,
    We upgraded our development platform from VS 2003 to VS 2005 and one of the components which uses crystal report. One issue we can not resolve so far is the parameter fields which are inserted into the reports don't show up (empty) when reports are converted into PDF files.
    Thanks a lot,

    I assume they show up on the report preview, you may want to change the font for the param fields.  And just out of curiosity, if you try putting the Parameter fields someplace else, do they show up then ?

  • How do I get a PDF form to show its content using Mac 10.9.3, Safari 7.0.4 and Reader XI?

    I am using my Mac 10.9.3 with Adobe Reader XI in my Safari 7.0.4 Browser.  I do not have any trouble viewing PDF statements with my bank or other places OTHER than at Ford Credit.  Each time I log into Ford Credit to view the statements and attempt to download them, all I get on the screen is their blank form with headings and titles---no content.  When this happened once before over a year ago with my old Mac computer, I found my answer online by making Adobe Reader my default reader instead of Preview.  At that time it worked.  This time, its not working.  I contacted Ford Credit and they said their online Account Manager performs better using Internet Explorer.  The only answer they had for me was that advice or to contact Adobe.  So here I am looking for answers.  Any help provided is already appreciated.

    I do not know what to do or what to say or what to type to get someone familiar with the Adobe Reader to respond to my plea for help.  I am a 55 year old (aging fast) woman who is taking care of a father-in-law with dementia and a mother-in-law with Stage 4 Breast Cancer so I am already at my wits end when trying to get a program to work on my computer.
    Again, I ask.  How do I get the Adobe Reader to show content on a PDF statement at Ford Credit when all other PDF statements on other accounts work fine?  Ford Credit says it is a problem with Adobe Reader and that I am to come here for the answers.  I have 'googled' and have looked for similar posts on the Adobe Reader Community forums but I haven't found the answer yet.  
    Posting "[moved to the Adobe Reader (desktop) forum]", which I have yet to find, probably doesn't exist, or posting "Duplicate of https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1491128" does not provide an answer when an answer could have been provided at the same time taken to post those notations.  I don't get it or understand it---not what I would have done if the roles were reversed.
    If you have any heart, or any form of courtesy, please respond with an actual, workable answer to what is probably a simple solution to my problem.  And, then maybe, the answer will help someone else in the future who may be struggling with the same situation and will find it in a 'google' search and won't waste any more of your valuable time.  Or theirs.
    Thanks.

  • Use addChild to create a text field but cannot get its height

    Hi,
    I am using addChild to dynamically creat text components

    Thanks!

    If I call the method that check the height of the newly

  • Field name while fetching its content from db table dynamically.

    Hi Experts,
    I am new to ABAP and I  have a situation as follows.
    I have a table say ztable where there are seven fields monday,tuesday,wednesday,thursday,friday and saturday.
    Depending on the current calender day i have to fetch the content.
    Suppose for monday, i have to fetch ztable-monday.
    Is there any other way other than using if statements 7 times ? Like i wanna capture the day and substitute it in the place of z_table-"day".
    Please help.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    In the below code you can pass any field of the table in W_FIELD.... It will fetch the particular field from the table....
    w_block should be of same data element of your field in W_FIELD
    PARAMETER : w_field TYPE NAME_FELD.
    DATA w_block(1) TYPE c.
    Select single (w_field) FROM RSEG INTO w_block
      WHERE belnr EQ '5105701294'.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
        WRITE / w_block.
      ENDIF.

  • SQL Query for SSRS has data but fields don't show that data

    I am having a strange issue here with my new report;
    First off, this report is an availability report for employees. If they are busy then a 0 should be displayed for that Hour and if they are free then a 1 is to be displayed. There are 2 parameters setup for use in this query, one is a Date/Time parameter
    and the other is a Text parameter where another Dataset Query is grabbing the data for (Departments)
    I have 2 Parameters, 1 is for a Department and the other is to select the date.
                           Hour1     Hour2    Hour3     Hour4    Hour5   
    Hour6    Hour7
    Smith, John     |     1     |     0     |     0     |     0     |   
    1     |     1     |     1     |
    Som, One        |     1     |     1     |     1     |     0
        |    0     |     1     |     1     |
    When I run the query in the Query Designer for the Dataset the information is displayed correctly and as I would expect it, however, when I run the Report and choose the same information for the 2 parameters then the report only ever shows all 1's;
    Smith, John     |     1     |     1     |     1     |     1     |   
    1     |     1     |     1     |
    Som, One        |     1     |     1     |     1     |     1    
    |    1     |     1     |     1     |
    I've tried searching but didn't know what term to use that describes what is going on.
    Like I said, this works if ran in SSMS and works when ran in the Query Builder of SSRS but when it comes to displaying the data on the report the incorrect information is displayed.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    EDIT
    I have also ran the Report Table Wizard with the same query and chosen Names as the row and Hours as the columns and the same thing happens - just all 1's are displayed even thought the query in Query Builder shows correct information.

    The difference running the query directly in query designer and when the report runs is that you manually type in values for the parameters when running query designer. It is likely that the parameter values from the report have a different syntax than you
    expect. This will happen especially when setting the available values of a parameter from a data cube query. A value from an analysis cube may be displayed in the query designer as "\Project\Iteration Node" while the actual value is "[Work Item].[Iteration
    Hierarchy].[Iteration2].&[-7189901615194941888]&[-8272609059741292246]". Very different as you can see. This example is from the TFS analysis server.
    The best way to validate that your parameters are passing the values (and syntax) you expect is to add text boxes to your report for each parameter and set them to display Parameters!ParameterName.Value.

    Thank you for your reply, Paul.  Unfortunately this suggestion didn't solve the issue.
