Adobe LifeCycle ES2 rounding up formula numeric value

January 19, 2016, 7:22 am

I've used ES2 to create a user entry form. On that form there are 12 questions and each question has a radio button with a scoring system from 1 to 6 on it. The user is asked to select a score from the radio button for all 12 questions and then at the bottom the form gives an average score. This all works great but the score doesn't round up to the nearest whole number so it's not as accurate as I would like it to be. Could anyone give me any pointers as to ways of fixing this issue? I have no experience on coding and this is the first time I've used ES2 so go easy with me, the formula I've used just adds up the scores from each of the radio button fields and then divides by 12 (that's the number of questions).

 

The current code I'm using:
this.rawValue = parseInt(RBQ1.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ2.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ3.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ4.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ5.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ6.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ7.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ8.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ9.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ10.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ11.rawValue) + parseInt(RBQ12.rawValue) /12;

Rows not repeating for data bind

I have a table setup, with a single row that has the databinding: !connectionData.DataConnection.Body.GETAPPLICATIONDATAReturn.STORAGELOCATIONS[*]

 

Each one of my columns for the row has a databinding: $.LEGALDESCRIPTION, etc, etc...

 

The row has the option "Repeat Row for Each Data Item" selected, and it is within a flowed subform.

 

If I check off Min Count, and specify a number of rows, it works perfectly. ie: I have two rows in the database, and I specify "Min Count: 2" it will show both of the rows exactly how they should. If I change Min count to 1, it only shows the first row. If I leave it unchecked, it shows nothing.

 

As far as I'm concerned everything is setup properly, so why is it not working??

OLEDB SQL Server / Adobe Reader Connection

We have been using LiveCycle Designer ES4 to create PDF flyers for our branch managers throughout the United States.Each state has different information needed on their PDF flyer so we are using LiveCycle to populate that information and they simply choose their branch.

 

The PDF’s, after distribution, need to load dynamic data.  The managers will have acrobat reader.  Once the manager opens the PDF, the PDF will need to dynamically populate the options in a drop-down list by making a call to a SQL Server database, by making a call to a Web Service, or any other reasonable method to pull data from a server.  We can support several different data access methods.  We are set up with a SQL Server query at this time.

 

We have tested several methods, and while we can get data to pull in from the LiveCycle development tool, we have not been able to get any method to work in Reader after the PDF is distributed.  We need to be able to distribute these documents once, and make sure they stay current by loading the most recent data when the PDF is opened.

New table rows skipped in tab order. Livecycle ES4

Hi,

 

I've built a form that has a few tables (all in flowed subforms) that each have an action to add a new instance of the row if the last cell is not empty. I've done this before in other forms and had no issues, but for some reason in this form when I tab out of the cell and it adds a new row, it puts the cursor in the next field after the table, skipping the new row. My tab order is set to automatic, so I have no idea why it's not tabbing into the new row.

I found some discussions about this happening in Designer 8, but they were solved by using flowed subforms and ensuring the overall subform is flowed (check!) or automatic tab order (check!).

 

Any help would be appreciated!!

I have run into a snag using LiveCycle for form development. Whenever I select any of the black bars that form the structure of the form, these gray lines appear out of nowhere. I know I did not intentionally activate anything. At first I thought they were guide to help the user see smaller objects but that was not the case because when I went to print the form those gray lines were clearly visible on the printout. I do not use Java to develop these forms.

Move Rows Up or Down triggering Validation Error in Livecycle Table

January 26, 2016, 10:53 am

Hello Niall,

Your work is incredibly helpful. I am stumped with a problem. I have inserted two buttons within expandable tables to allow users to move rows up or down.

Works well at first, then begins to trigger a validation error when the use clicks up or down. The error says" Enter name cannot be left blank." However, there is no validation requested anywhere in the document. The row still moves, after user clicks ok.  I have narrowed the problem to the buttons, and not the table rows.

Here is the script for the buttons:

Up

 

if(Row1.index != 0)

{

var nIndexFrom = Row1.index;

var nIndexTo = Row1.index - 1;

Row1.instanceManager.moveInstance(nIndexFrom, nIndexTo);

xfa.form.recalculate(1);

}

and Down

 

var nIndex = Row1.index;

if((nIndex + 1) < Row1.instanceManager.count)

{

var nIndexFrom = nIndex;

var nIndexTo = nIndex + 1;

Row1.instanceManager.moveInstance(nIndexFrom, nIndexTo);

xfa.form.recalculate(1);

}

 

Any thoughts as to why this would happen?  Removing buttons removes error, but also function. Turning off error windows removes error boxes, but I don't want to do that in case I put validation somewhere in the document.

Your help is appreciated.

Thank you.

Don

Exporting XML Data from Dynamic Forms

Hello,

 

I've created a dynamic PDF form in LiveCycle Designer ES4 and saved it as an Adobe Dynamic XML Form (*.pdf).  I want to be able to extract data after the form has been filled out; however, when I try to Export To -> XML 1.0 in Acrobat DC Pro, I get the following error:

 

error.png

 

Does anyone know what this means and how to fix this?  On a side note, I did find a workaround by creating a Submit button that submits the form as XML but would rather not have to create a fake email just to get extract the data.

 

 

Thanks!

Live Cycle Designer ES2 time format?

Hello All,

 

I am working on a form that I need to record time in hh:mm:ss format.  How do is set the field patterns to display and validate time?  The closest I have been able to come is to use a numeric field and use the following format. num{zz:zz:zz}.  Unfortunately this format allows numbers greater than 59 which will allows a return of 1:85:20 to be returned also the lead in zeros are dropped ::20 for 00:00:20.

 

Ideas?

 

Thank you

 

John

Alternate command: xfa.layout.relayout()/Re-generating only particular subform

January 27, 2016, 9:36 pm

Hi Folks,

 

I am using ALD in SAP to print static form. We have a requirement where a particular subform (Dynamic Footer) needs to be populated only at end of last page. In READY LAYOUT EVENT some calculation in javascript has been done by using method xfa.layout.relayout(); and is working fine. However on use of this METHOD a new issue has been discovered. i.e. when we use this method, internally/return parameter is coming up with 2 page where in actual page is 1. In print layout/taking print it is showing correctly but STANDARD CODE by SAP-ADOBE is returning an incorrect page count which is leading to other issues. Could anybody help on this, how to use this method in an alternate way/other way/any method to dynamically re-assign the sub form instead of the entire layout) . It is urgent and help would be really appreciated

 

Regards

BG

 

Code Ref:

var curp   = xfa.layout.page(this);

var totalp = xfa.layout.pageCount();

if ( curp == totalp )

{ this.h = 637 - xfa.layout.y(this) + "pts";

data.Subform_Pag_1.Positioned_Subfrm.Vertical_line_Subfrm.h = this.h;

xfa.layout.relayout(); }   //<-- ISSUE

Hi All,

 

Just wondering if there's a way to change the default event code for an email submit button to grab only a specified subform (for example, page 1) in LiveCycle ES4? If so, could someone please provide the extra bit of code I need to insert?

 

Here is the existing code:

 

event name="event_click" activity="click"

submit format="pdf" textEncoding="UTF-16" target="mailto:.... " xdpContent="pdf datasets"/

Validation / Reset Functions, easy to manipulate and to change Forms!!!!

July 24, 2014, 12:53 pm

Hello everyone,

 

I've just opened this discussion free to everyone to discuss about any easy way to validate / reset form fields.

I'm providing a development tool to be used in LiveCycle Designer with a new way to validate and reset forms in any ways. You can change the design of PDF Forms without having to change much code.

The validation function is to validate any field which returns null / 0

 

It is independent / self-responsive to the design of any forms. I'm working on the function to make sure it can work with any kind of settings set in PDF forms.

 

The objects which contains the functions are not to modify(unless you know what to modify), you can add any specific validation to your form by adding field/subform names in the exception arrays.

 

All your specific validation is to be inserted in the validate buttons. It is also possible to validate only a part of the form, 1 page, 2 pages or a subform only.

 

Instructions to use the functions are in the PDF Form to download below, take a look, feedback and questions are always welcome as well.

 

TemplateDesign_Validation_Reset_Form.pdf - Google Drive

 

Hope this will help some of you.
