Why certain functionality works in Adobe Acrobat, but not in LiveCycle Preview PDF?

I have some simple logic in a LiveCycle form that will hide a subform when I click a checkbox.  When I save as dynamic PDF and open in Adobe Acrobat 9, it works fine, but when I test the .xdp in LiveCycle Preview PDF it does not.  I'm new to JavaScript and have wasted some time troubleshooting what I thought was a problem, only to find out it was working.  Am I doing something that is not capatible with Preview PDF? 
Attached below are images of hierarchy, design, and code.  I realize the hierarchy is more complex than it needs to be.  It is an excerpt I built to test this functionality, based on the full document.
Thanks.
form1.diag.Cervical.show::click - (JavaScript, client)
if (this.rawValue == 1) {narrative.Cervical.mre.presence = "visible"} else {narrative.Cervical.mre.presence = "hidden"}
form1.narrative.Cervical.mre::initialize - (JavaScript, client)
this.presence = "hidden";

Did you made the form as Dynamic and Interactive in the preview..
     1) Goto File menu -> Form Properties and select Defaults tab. Change the Default Render Format as Dynamic XML form
     2) Select the Preview Tab. Set the Preview type as "Interactive Form" and Preview Adobe XML form as Dynamic XML form
     3) Finally while saving the PDF select Save As Type as "Adobe Dynamic XML Form".
Thanks

  • Ajax functionality works in embedded OC4J, but not on iAS 10.1.2

    Hi,
    For a customer, we made an ADF application using JDeveloper 10.1.2. Using instructions from http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/vohra-ajax.html we coded a servlet, to find a description from a code the user entered in the application, and show this on the webpage without page refresh (the application uses JSP and Struts). This works fine in the embedded oc4j server JDeveloper provides, and also works fine on the Standalone OC4J server. However, when the application is deployed to the iAS from the customer, everything works fine, except the ajax functionality, the description fields simply are not shown.
    Does anyone have a clue what could be the problem? We also runned the application on the iAS server itself, and this gives the same error (no ajax functionality).
    Thanks in advance,
    Remco

    Hi dvohra,
    Thanks for your reply. I'm afraid I overlooked something, which is the reason of the ajax functionality not working. The Servlet that made the Ajax functionality used a datasource, and the same was in the Embedded OC4J Preferences. The ADF Business Components part was changed to use the datasource declared on the iAS. The Servlet however was not...
    So, all works now.

  • Adobe Acrobat aborts when using LiveCycle Designer PDF Preview tab.

    Whenever I try to use the PDF preview tab in LiveCycle Designer, Adobe Acrobat aborts.  I get the notice that "Adobe Acrobat 8.1 has encoutered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.  Yadda, yadda, yadda,....." .
    The error signature is:

    Please increase your Buffer memeory for appalications.
    Before you go for a preview. try to kill the exisitign process of adobe reader.
    We need to see hte size of the XDP being generated.
    If it is over 20 0r 30 MB, we may need to bring it down to 2 - 4 MB.
    Again if the problem still persists, Re install the acrobat and try.
    Lastly, check if the same problem happens when you use a adobe reader 8.1.3 or 9.4 (stable versions).

  • Command Tilde works in most apps but not Safari or Preview

    Hi
    The Command-Tilde command (window-switching) works in most of my applications (Chrome, Firefox, jEdit, Finder, Terminal, Xcode(sometimes), etc.)  However,the command-tilde does not work in Safari or Preview.  Is there a way to fix this?  I find it quite annoying and have not been able to find a solution.  I have tried resetting the System Preferences shortcut and that did not work.  Uninstalling/Reinstalling Safari & Preview does not seem to be an option.  I am not willing to reinstall Lion unless absolutely necessary.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    As Guest, test. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Error 1097 - function works in C++ application, but not in LabView

    Good afternoon,
    I have a C++ OpenCV application that I am trying to port to LabView for a co-worker. The application is fully functional when it's compiled standalone as an .exe. When called from LabView it reports error 1097.
    However, this error is not being caused by not allocating momeory space or the way I am calling the DLL, because I can successfully run the DLL from LabView if I omit one function "findContours(..)" from being called inside my rotuine. Meaning that without this function I can send and receive an Image to my DLL and display it in LabView without a problem. This function is not being called directly from LabView either, it's called inside the main function that is being called by LabView.
    That being said, the function allocates memory on its own for it's internal calculation purposes, I do not know what they are, but I know it works perfectly well in a standalone C++ application. 
    My DLL application consistenly uses 180Mb of memory without any leaks
    My Question is:
    Is it possible that LabView or windows may be preventing the DLL from allocating enough memory (I have 12Gb total)?
    Is it possible to run the DLL as a separate application or in a different configuration that would prevent error 1097 from occuring?
    How could LabView possibly be restricting the DLL?
    Thanks,

    error 1097 means that the function somewhere and somehow overwrote memory areas that LabVIEW monitors as its own during the call. This could be memory buffer function parameters  that are unallocated or to small or stack variables or some other memory areas LabVIEW puts in place around the DLL call when the highest debugging level is selected for the Call Library Node. But lowering the debugging level is not the solution as the function certainly does something that it should not do.
    What that could be is impossible to say without analyzing the actual C source code of the function and possibly all the other functions involved in this as well as all the Call Library Nodes. It could even be that its something that is not even directly evident from the C source code but an effect of some (falsely invoked) optimization from the used C compiler.
    I assume that you have actually a self written wrapper DLL here and that is where I would focus on in my search. It is quite unlikely that the OpenCV source code itself would still contain such errors after that much of time.

  • Why does goolgeearth work with Safari & Chrome but not Firefox

    When in firefox using Google maps and click on "EARTH" I receive a window indicating that to use 3D I need to install 21.0 Google Earth Plug-in with a "Download" option to click on. Note: Firefox 21.0 and MAC OS 10.7.5 have all current software updates installed. Safari & Chrome do not request for any plug-ins and 3D Earth option works fine. ANY HELP?
    PS. my MAC does have an Intel HD Graphics 3000 installed but my MAC, Safari & Chrome work fine.

    JKELLETT, That initially happen to me also. When you go to dolinsky296's suggested website https://www.google.com/earth/explore/products/plugin.html I saw "Download plug-in" box in the middle of the globe. When I click it the download executed but the plug-in never got installed. Then I clicked on "Download Google Earth" in the ''upper right corner'' of the website and life was good. Google Earth now works in Firefox.

  • Why would hotspots work in the browser, but not in Device Central?

    I exported a small prototype from Fireworks CS5 to HTML & Images & tested my hotspots in my Firefox browser.  That worked fine.
    Then in Device Central CS5 I did File > Open File & selected the home page for this protototype.  None of the hotspots worked in Device Central.
    Any clues?  Shouldn't they work in Device Central?

    Please forgive me.  This is working.  I didn't notice because the page changed so smoothly & I  couldn't see the part of the page that indicated it changed.  Yeah it works!

  • (PDWordGetAttrEx(pdWord, 0) & WXE_LAST_WORD_ON_LINE) is working in one document but not in any other

    Hello,
    I am using (PDWordGetAttrEx(pdWord, 0) & WXE_LAST_WORD_ON_LINE) to get the line breaks in a pdf document. I'm getting the correct results on the plugin_apps_developer_guide.pdf (The reference guide for plugin development to Adobe Acrobat), but not on any other pdf document. I've tried the code on both tagged and un-tagged document, but only this document is giving me the right result.
    Can anyone please guide me what can be the possible reason in this and how this can be handled.

  • Actionscript works in IDE,projector but not SWF

    Hello, I'm atempting to create a swf that loads in a
    controller swf and accesses some of the information contained
    within the load swf. My main timeline is pretty simple.
    var preloader_mc:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("preloader_mc",
    this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var labelcontainer:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var label:TextField = labelcontainer.createTextField("label",
    1, 0, 365, 150, 20);
    var TOCcontainer:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("TOCcontainer",
    this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var TOClabel:TextField =
    TOCcontainer.createTextField("TOClabel", 1, 0, 300, 150, 20);
    then I have an onenter frame function that access the
    variable contained within the loaded swf.
    loadMovie("xml_controller.swf", preloader_mc);
    onEnterFrame = function () {
    vTime =
    this.preloader_mc.container.controlBar.timeView.label.value;
    this.label.text = vTime
    When I test the movie I see the time displayed and everything
    is ok. When I create a projector file I see the time display. When
    I try to run the swf, in a browser or straight from explorer All I
    see is undefined for the values.
    Anybody have any ideas why this would work in two
    environments but not the third?

    I saw this issue with a website I did. Sometimes the code
    would work no problem in the projector but fail when I published to
    the site.
    Does the xml_controller.swf refer to _root anywhere? If you
    have not locked the root and there is something it needs to access
    locally it won't be able to find the item because the _root it is
    referring to is now the load.swf movie

    Portal Rel. 2, all patches applied. Our custom login portlet works just fine when IE Explorer is the browser. When mozilla 1.2 is the browser, everything processes without errors, but the user is never logged in. The portlet is calling the procedure wwptl_login.login_url, and p_requested_url is set to portal.home. Any idea why it would work using one browser and not the other?
