Unable to use list/combo box to skew/rotate in transform palette

I'm using 9 on XP Pro and I'm not able to use the list/combo boxes for skew and rotate in the transform palette.

Can I have a blank field on my document when using a combo box with a drop down list in Word 2011 for Mac?

I am creating a drop down list using a combo box in the Developer tab. Once I protect my document I want the field to remain empty and not show any of the items on my drop down list. Is there a way to do this? Currently it shows one of the items on my list.
Thanks

Paul's answer is correct.
Since this is a Word IT forum for Windows, in the future you should use the
answers.microsoft.com forum. It specializes in Word for the Mac. BTW - Paul stops by there also, so you'll still get his advice from there. :-)

How to use the Combo Box In MAtrix Colums

HI Experts,
Good Mornong.How to use the Combo Box In MAtrix Colums?
Regards And Thanks,
M.Thippa Reddy

hi,
loading data in to the combobox on form load.but, it should be done when atleast one row is active.
the values what ever you are inserting in to combo should be less than or eqhal to 100 or 150.if it exceeds beyond that performance issue arises.it takes more time to load all the data.so, it is better to have 100 or less.
oMatrix.AddRow()
RS = Nothing
RS = ocompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.BoRecordset)
RS.DoQuery("select ItemCode,ItemName from oitm")
oCombo = oMatrix.Columns.Item("ColumnUID").Cells.Item(oMatrix.RowCount).Specific
For i = 1 To RS.RecordCount
      If RS.EoF = False Then
            oCombo.ValidValues.Add(RS.Fields.Item("ItemCode").Value,RS.Fields.Item("ItemName").Value)
            RS.MoveNext()
      End If
Next
the above code is inserting data from database to column combobox.
you can fill combo directly also as shown below.
oCombo.ValidValues.Add("x","1")
oCombo.ValidValues.Add("y","2")
oCombo.ValidValues.Add("z","3")
oCombo.ValidValues.Add("","")
and what ever the values you are filling into combo should be unique.other wise it shows valid value exists.

Using the Combo Box

I am trying to use the combo box, so that the users can type as well as go through the drop down and pick there choice.
But I have three issues
1. Whats happening is as soon as I type it in and hit submit it will not do anything, until and unless I click on the drop down and then go and click submit.
2. The combo box is a text box and the numbers are not sorted, is there a way to sort numbers for a combo box
3. How do I make the selection appear as the user is typing, for example If I type in 55, it should bring all the entries starting with 55.
I am using Entrylist which is derived by a standard BAPI.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Naseer

Hi Marcel,
I have selected the action as "System Action" "Submit" "Self". But it still does not work.
The other thing is the COMBO box is a TEXT box and the Values are "NUMBER" values so even when I select "sort" at the Entrylist level it would not sort it properly, simply because COMBO BOX is a Text box.
Please let me know if I am clear enough in explaining myself.
Waiting for you reply..
Thanks a lot Marcel.

Trying to filter an entire database using a combo box or text box

Hi,
I am looking to create a combo box with rows vice columns, then I would like to create a macro or some for form of filter that gives me the option to search within each or all of the selections.
I have created a search function (using a textbox and the button features) that allows me to search for anything in my database using applyfilter. The problem that I ran into with this was that when I hit the might work, but only the first line worked.
So I tried to use a combination box to create a filter of the fields that I want to view for the particular search I need, but I want to select row headers vice columns of information. For example if I have five fields of: Last Name, First Name, SSN, Document
number and Unique ID.
I want a combination box to show the following field header when I click the drop down option.
(Last Name
First Name
SSN
Documentation Number
Unique ID)
Then I would to apply a macro filter feature for files within theses individual fields. I am just getting started in VBA and using Macros, so any help would be awesome!!
If I am too far off target please direct me back, I tend to over think things.
Thanks in Advance

Dirk Goldgar, I tried to you use the suggested method you gave me. Part of the problem I was having was that I wanted to view the field list, which I now know is very possible thanks to you, but only wanted it to show as one single list of fields.
So took the information you gave me and went on to create a list box instead. I later found out why this was not working either.
In what way was it not working? You can do the same thing with a list box as I described for a combo box.
I have relationships of tables attached.
I don't understand what you mean by that last statement, or how it's relevant to the discussion. Do you mean you have multiple different tables that you might want to filter? So you would need to either (a) first need to select a table from a
list of tables in your database, and only then select a field in that table, or else (b) have a table listing all the data elements you might want to search, with the table and field name of each, and base a list box on that -- then the code to search would
know what table to select from, as well as what field to filter on.
So this info that you provided was very helpful. I will continue to go through the link you provided.
So I can quickly sum up what I need:
1. A dropdown box that allows me to search any Field List
2. A textbox that allows me to type in the searchable information for that particular field.
3. Or some way to build a filter function for the whole list, with a textbox to search the key words.
This is all still a bit unclear to me, because I don't know whether you want to search a particular table, or any of many possible tables in the database.

Cant make a list/combo box that enters a different value to what you chose

Hi Any help will be very much apreciated,
Iv been turning my timesheet into a P.D.F form for filling out it started as an excell spread sheet and iv bassicialy just put txt boxs over the fields that need filling in and if made the "total" box add up all the hours so its great so far
but the problem i have is for the Premises number section i want to be able to give the user a selection of all the properties but have a number entred into the actual fields for example... you chose "smiths road sainsburys" from a list but the job number "1234" is entred into the form for printing/sending
Thanks anyone.

If I understand what you want, you can use a text box in addition to a combo box for this. For each item in the combo box, set its export value to the number you want. Then in the text box that will display the number, use the following custom Calculate script:
event.value = getField("combo1").value;
Replace "combo1" with the name of the combo box.

How to use one Combo Box to control Two spreadsheet/charts in Web Analysis

In Web Analysis panel, I have one data grid and one chart (two different data sources). I would like to have one combo box, e.g. Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, in the selection (drop-down). When I select Q1, I would like to show Jan, Feb, Mar, Q1 ( ICHILDREN(Q1)) in my chart, and also only Q1 in my data grid.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I believe you can do this. For example you want to have a Chart and Graph linked to a drop down for products. When you select a product, the two POV's will change on the reports.
Look at Panels in WA. I create a report with three panels. Make the first panel top aligned, the second top aligned and the third stretched. This should make the report "stretchy". Then add your dropdown to one panel and your reports to the other two panels.
Finally link the reports to dropdown using the re-linking technique mentioned in the previous post.
Hope this helps.

How do you use the combo box to populate a text box

I am a beginner when it comes to Java Script. I have viewed many different discussions, look at a lot of "help" articles dealing with Acrobat 9 and Java Script, but only to be left confused and dazed. I am hoping someone will be able to tell me how to write a script that will populate a text box that is on my form with the combo box selection's export value...
Thanks

If you want the text box to be read-only, just set it up with the following custom calculate script:
// Set this field value to the value of the combo box
event.value = getField("combo1").value;
but replace "combo1" with the actual name of the combo box field.
If you want something else, post again with more information.

Question about using the Combo Box feature!

I have a form that I am trying to create for our company that will allow our field nurses to select what they need and print it more effieciently. The problem is that some of the selections are too long and I can't get the Combo box feature to allow them to be printed on multiple lines:
I have spoken to my supervisor about redoing the form to look like this:
But in order for us to meet state guidelines it has to be formated like the first because that is the state form given to us. I want to be able to either:
A) have the combo box multi-line auto text sized so it will get all the information into each box
OR
B) create text boxes at the end of the form that auto enteries the selected data from the second picture into boxes that look like the first picture.
Is there any way to do either of these?

A) No.
B) Yes. Create a text box with the following code as the custom calculation
script (assuming the name of the combo is "Combo Box1"):
event.value = this.getField("Combo Box1").value;
That way, when the user makes a selection in the combo-box, the value will
also appear in the text box. Just make sure to make the text box read-only
and set the combo-box to apply the selection immediately.

Unable to use Recording click boxes & Highlight boxes in Captivate V5 and Acrobat X

I am using Adobe Captivate V4 and have just upgraded to Adobe Acrobat X standard (writer). I notice that when I use my normal methods for recording mouse clicks, they are not recording. I thought I had changed something in the settings, but it works with other programs. I'm sure you'll tell me I will need to upgrade my Captivate version - but it's a shame that I need to do this!
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
thanks Lynn

Hi Lynn,
I'm sorry you're running into problems recording with Captivate. You've posted in the Adobe AIR forums, if you haven't done so already, would you mind reposting in one of the Captivate forums? Hopefully you'll get a better response over there.
Thanks,
Chris

Combo box list update or insert restriction

Dear all,
I have a list item which type is combo box.
it shows the Departments list from the department table at run time.
i populate at through a procedure at runtime.
problem
the user could update the list by writing something into it.
i want to force the user to just select a value from the list, not update or insert.
i change the properties of the list item which prevent insertion or updation,
but it disable the selection from the list as well.
how to prevent the user to write something in the combo box list while giving him the
selection authority using the combo box list item?
Thanks and Regards

thank you dear,
but i want to use the combo box instead.
for popup list there is a problem of the null value,
you must assign a value to the popup list and set its required property to true for doing so.
and the combo box do not need this. and my desired functionality require it.

Hello,
You need to create a client-side PL/SQL package as Program Units for your report. In this package you can define a package variable to hold and share your file handle, and create functions to open, write, and close the file. You can call these functions from the Before Report, Formula, and After Report triggers in your report.

When i change the value of a combo box using a property node it displays the value not the item label

I am using a combo box as a select list for text serial commands. I have items like "engineering", "GUI", and "Scan" for the commands "MDE", "MDN", and MDS respectively which i have input as the corresponding value in the combo box. so for example the label "engineering" has the value "MDE" in the combo box items list. when the Vi starts it needs to read the current value MDE, MDN, or MDS and then i want it to display on the front panel the item text corresponding to that command value.
To do this i have tried to read the serial command, ie MDS and then wire that to a "value" property of a property node of the combo-box, but instead of displaying the corresponding item label, "Scan", it displays the value "MDS" on the front panel instead. i want the front panel to use the label text when choosing and displaying but the block diagram to use the serial commands. Can this be done with a combo box? I'm trying to use a combo box so i can keep it all text and avoid having to build a case statement to convert enums or rings from a numerical value to the text command.
The correct text value is wired to the value property and it does exist in the combo-box. I have unchecked "values match items" and selected to not allow undefined values.

Don't use the value property node. Use the Text.Text property node. When creating the property node, select Text, then in the next pop-up box, select Text.

How to display "All Items" using a "Filtered Rows" Combo Box

Hi
How do I make a Combo Box with "Filtered Rows" show "All Values" by default, AND have the option to select individual filters?
If my data was
North
South
East
West
I would want the Combo box to display
ALL
North
South
East
West
When the user selected:
North, they should see just the filtered rows with North
South, they should see just the filtered rows with South
ALL should be the default, and it should ifilter/include North, Soutn, East and West (i.e. showing all the rows)
I need to use a Combo box and Filtered Rows, because I actually want to filter my dataset using multiple columns:
Company, Region, District, Sector, Value
My current method is to:
use a Combo to filter the RawData on Company into an Intermediate_Company worksheet
use another Combo to filter the Intermediate_Company worksheet on Region into an Intermediate_Region worksheet
use another Combo to filter the Intermediate_Region worksheet on District into an Intermediate_District worksheet
use another Combo to filter the Intermediate_District worksheet on Sector into an Intermediate_Sector worksheet
then display in a List View from the Intermediate_Sector worksheet.
Any comments on this method would also be welcome.
Thanks for your help
Stuart

Thanks Muwa
I've uploaded a non-working version here: http://www.teradepot.com/ntxgoo6629zi/Simple_All_Combo.xlf.html
I've figured out how to use tthe filter to copy a subset of the rows in the source date to the destination are of the worksheet.
I can't figure out how to use a filter to copy ALL the rows in the source to the destination.
I've seen hints about using hidden filters, but I can't make this work, either. It's quite depressing, really
I'm very grateful for any help you can give.
Thanks in advance

Using Combo box at the backend

Hi,
I am using combo box at the backend to filter rows to a particular destination.
The problem is the labels are going to populate at the runtime and the selection of item in combo box is also going to populate at the run time. I have an icon which inserts eg: country in a cell, then this cells is used by combo box as a item selection(label) to filter rows from source. But unfortunately the comb box is not selecting any value i.e no item is selected dynamically. But if i manually drill down it is working but the label is not changing dynamically based on the changes in label by icon.
For eg my data:
Country and profit populate at run time
Country          Profit
India               5000
Germany        4000
Now i have icon which selects country (hard coded in excel) upon clicking the mouse on it and inserts in A1 suppose the value hardcoded is "India". Now this A1 is used as a "selected item" for combo box. the source to combo box is the above country and profit which populates at run time.
Now when i execute the dashboard. The value is inserted in A1 after clicking the icon but it is not picked up by combo box as "item selected" and hence combo box does not filter any data.
Can any pls help.
Thank you. I will award full points for correct solution.

Hi Monammed,
The said functionality should work. Please check your logic one more time. Also, try using some spreadsheet components mapped to the cells in question and understand how the data is flowing during run-time. This will help you test things. Delete spreadsheets when you are done with identifying the issue.
Lets check the combo box mapping one more time : Map the source of the combo to the entire range; labels in the combo box ONLY to the country column in the source range(typically this may be the left most column in the range); selected item should be mapped to the cell that has the destination for the icon and the type for default selection may be dynamic. Well, if there is any hard-coding of values involved anywhere, do check the spellings and other trivial things.
Do let me know if this was helpful and if you need any more help.
Thanks,
Prasanna
