The size of a form viewer

Hi, friends,
For some reasons, I would like to develop an off-line tool say a form viewer using Java Swing. The data will be stored in xml files. The form viewer will display the data as electronic form. A user can edit the form and store the updated form in another xml file. The tool should also allow to compare the data stored in two seperated xml files. The tool should also allow to merge the data in two seperated xml files and store the result in a new xml file.
Do you have any idea of the size of this application?
I would like to know if this tool can be sent by flopy diskette.
Thanks in advance.

Well, this question is objective... but based on how Java compiles code, it's hard to get applications up to 1.4 MB in size.
The great thing about java is that it compiles only the classes that get used in your application. By comparision, C++ programs will compile all the files included in your application whether you use all the classes or not. This adds a lot of bulk to C++ programs.
In general, you applications my reach up to a couple hundred KB if they are very complex. I would assume your xml application my be about 100 KB if it has a lot of classes involved. Plus you can compress the files into one Jar file to make it smaller and easier to distribute.
Just from experience I would say you final application will be under 100 KB. Just my opinion.
Also, remember the user of your application needs the Java runtime environment intalled...

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

How to dynamically hide the Field Label in the overview page's form view?

Hi Experts,
How to dynamically hide, for certain condition, the Field Label in the overview page's form view?
Please reply me.
Regards,
Vishal

Hi Vishal,
It is not possible to dynamically hide/display fields if the UI is build using configurations.
The work around is to have multiple configurations, and based on the condition, load the
corresponding configuration at runtime.
The other approach is to code the complete htm view(htm coding) without using the configuration provided by the framework.

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,

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

Controlling the size of a form?

Hi,
Is it possible to design a form a little bigger than an A4 form, but to print just an A4 form? (I would like to put some buttons in a form bigger than A4 so the users could see them in acrobat, however, I don´t want that buttons to print. Using the property to don´t print is not possible because if I place the buttons in a A4 form, they will be over some text).
Thank you

Hi,
In livecycle, select the masterpage node. In the page tab, specify, for instance, 13in in the height property. Put the object at the end of the page, and mark them as visible but don´t print. In acrobat chose "none" in page scaling property (or print with a print button inside the form and control the scaling property form there).

Parameter List displaying all the values on Parameter form

Dear All...If I uncheck the "Restrict List to predetermined values" option, then report parameter form displays all the values on web parameter form instead of displaying those values in the List Item. Is it the Default behaviour of Oracle Reports 10g or Can I control it anyway because if I've 1000 entries in a list, then displaying all those values openly on the form is an ugly thing and it increases the size of parameter form very much.

Hello,
A solution is provided in the Note :
Note.465886.1 How to Implement an Alternate Solution to Unrestricted List Of Values (LOV) in Parameter Form on the Web:

I need to change the size of the view for easier reading. Is there a way to make the page view larger without affecting the form?

Hi Guys, good product beginning however it's not as good as many of the other Adobe product's workspaces. I cannot change the size of the view during form design work, so it's a visual strain to work in Forms Central. Is there a way to modify the view (not affecting the width, size or font when presented on website or on paper)?

In Photoshop CC 2014 (Windows only) it is possible to use a setting of 200% to scale the UI. On some monitors it improves readability and on others it cuts part of the application screen. To give it a try go to:
Edit >> Preferences >> Experimental Features
Put a check-mark in the box and click OK
Then close PS and re-start for the change to take effect.

Changing the size of text input field in xml style coldfusion forms

Does anyone know how to get the size attribute of a text
input field to work in a coldfusion xml form?
Example: When I enter the following code and view the form in
a browser, all of the fields are the exact same size.
<cfform format="xml" name="testingform" method="post">
<cfformgroup type="horizontal">
<cfinput type="text" name="first_name" size="10"
label="First Name">
<cfinput type="text" name="middle_init" size="2"
label="Middle Initial">
<cfinput type="text" name="last_name" size="20"
label="Last Name">
</cfformgroup>
</cfform>

Indeed a mistake in the Coldfusion engine. Or is there some
reason for it? In any case, you should report it.
Look in the source, and you will see why it happens. The XML
form makes use of the stylesheet
/CFIDE/scripts/css/default_style.css. There the width attribute is
hard-coded for the cfinput element, thus
.cfInput, .cfTextarea {
font-size: .8em;
font-family: inherit;
width: 200px;
I would replace that block with
.cfInput {
font-size: .8em;
font-family: inherit;
.cfTextarea {
font-size: .8em;
font-family: inherit;
width: 200px;

How can I view the size of a particular event in iPhoto '11?

How can I view the size of a particular event in iPhoto '11? The 'Get Info' option is not displaying the size of the event like it used to in iPhoto 8.

But the event does not really have a size - you can export the photos and make the size pretty much what you want - while it is in iPhoto it is an event
I guess that iPhoto could report the size of the original photos as imported - or the size of the modified photos if exported as JPEGs - or the size of the modified photos if exported with a maximum dimension of 1080 - but the event simply is photos and does not have a "size" until you export it
Obviously you want to know the size but the question was
what is your puprose for knowing the size?
WIth that information maybe there is a way to get you what you want
But the basic answer is simply that an event does not have a size - an event is a collection of photos and each photo has either two or three versions in the iPhoto library and each photo can be exported for outside use in several formats and at any size

Hi,
You can change it in the "Parameter Form Window" property of the Report Object.
In the object navigator, select the Report object and open its property palette. Under "Parameter Form Window" you can change the "width" and "height" properties.
