Table with multiple body rows (table section), how to bind data?

$
0
0

My general understanding of data binding is "vague" at best but currently I am struggling with a table that should have multiple body-lines.

 

As best I understand it, the binding for the table of data is made against the body row, NOT the table.

This then causes the rows to repeat for each row in my XML source data.

 

However, I have a large number of columns in my table and it requires multiple body-lines for each row of the data table.

I've created a 2nd body-line and wrapped both body-lines in a table-section.

 

What surprised me is that I cannot bind the table of data to the table-section.

The table of data remains bound to body-line 1 - which is working fine & showing the values of the fields.

For body-line 2 - how can I get access to the data? If I re-bind the same object as body-line 1, I get to the fields I want but it has advanced to the next row.

 

Thanks in advance


Outlook does not open with some users

Hi all

 

 

I have created a PDF form where an email is automatically generated after pressing a button ('normal' button with the code to implement an email in it (event.target.submitForm)).

 

For a long period of time I did not have any issues. Many users could send out the form and Outlook opened perfectly. They all had Adobe Pro.

 

Now I added another user to be able to use the form and the problems occurred.

The user has also Adobe Pro and Outlook but when he clicks on the button, nothing happened.

Only the code before and after the code allowing the automatic mail to be generated, is executed.

 

For other users, no problems are occurring as they are able to send the mail without any problems.

Just this specific user causes troubles.

 

I also tried to let him use the Reader version but the same issues occured.

For that use, I Enabled the Reader rights.

 

Can you help me?

 

Thank you!

 

PS: I did try to turn it off and on again

 

Kind regards

How to get visible text length from text field and cut off extra characters?

$
0
0

I've been trying to solve this problem for two days now with no luck. I'm newbie in this world. I'm using ADOBE LIFECYCLE DESIGNER ES4 for SAP.

 

My problem is that I have small price tags that I want to print to one A4 size paper. 2x5 labels in two rows. I have values coming from database and I print several sheets.

 

It actually doesn't matter what happens before the form but the problem is that some of the database values are like 1080 characters long but size of text field is smaller. Only visible area of the text field should be printed to output PDF and all text should end with character "+".

 

If this "+" doesn't show I know that the actual data is too long and I should get some sort of info that all my text didn't fit in to this area without going through all printed labels. All characters outside the visible area should be cut off completely so I can check if text printed on label is ended with "+".

I can't just cut off text after f.ex. 255 chars because chars are different sizes and the amount of visible chars may vary.

 

I have allowed multiple lines and limited length to visible area and hoped that the useless part of text would be cut off but if I read data from my script then I get the whole text and I don't know if it fitted to visible part of the text box.

 

Thanks in advance

Align fields side by side

Hello,

 

I am trying to add a new field in a table and I want it to align to the right of the existing field but it will only align above or below it.

 

I think I have been through every single setting in Livecycle and I cannot get it to work. I have literally spent HOURS trying to sort this out. Does anyone know what I need to change to allow the field to be side by side?

 

Thanks in advance

Why does clearing a signature not activate the script in the postsign event?

$

Hi,

I have a form with a calculated field to display the record's reference according to out naming nomenclature.

I'd like this field to incorporate the date the form was signed.

 

I used the script proposed by Stefan Cameron (see http://forms.stefcameron.com/2008/11/05/digital-signature-field-status/ )

This script enables me to assign today's date in a field.

The good thing is the script in the postsign event enables to clear the date field in case the signature is aborted.

However, I was surprised that it would not clear the date field if the form was signed but the signature was cleared afterwards.

 

Am I missing something?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

The form not saving users choices

Hi,

 

I'm kind of new to Adobe Livecycle and programming in general.

I have a problem with my form. I have set of choices and depending on users choice, different drop down shows. The form works normally but when I save it and reopen it, the choices are back to default. I guess this is due to initialization event where I put default value (which I want to see only for the first time before the user has made a choice). Can someone explain to me what kind of command and in which event to put it in order that my form initializes with values from last save?

 

Many thanks,

I have a form with a drop down list containing various items. Once an item has been selected i want the arrow head to disappear and then reappear on entry again. I believe the only way to do this is to make the field read only on exit and then open again on entry but i have no idea how to write that script. (still learning)!  any help would be appreciated.

Issues adding pages

So I'm trying to add pages to a PDF originally created in LiveCycle.  All I need to do is add pages so that I can Replace Artwork to make all the field line up.  So I copied the pages I needed going from 40 pages to 43 in the Design View Hierarchy but when I save it and open it with Adobe, or look in the Preview PDF tab, the PDF still only has 40 pages.  How can I make the number of pages in Preview PDF match the number of pages in Design View.

I've tried to edit the form in Adobe Acrobat Pro but it tells me that I have to use LiveCycle.

I have a form in which I call setInstances(x) to generate multiple instances of a subform.

 

Only I want to gather some data from the user first and have that data replicated in the new instances. As it is, the new instances are based on the original empty version of the form.

 

Is there a way to do this?

 

Thanks.

Are subpages possible?

I have a flowable form but my client wants one (or a couple) of the pages to retain its number despite the text field expanding to new pages. The only thing I could think of as a solution would be to have subpages (e.g. 2A, 2B, 2C, etc.). Is this possible?

 

Thanks

PDF created with Acrobat Pro but once loaded in LiveCycle broken javascript

$

To start I do not have Adove LiveCycle or anyway to access it.

 

I have a company that we use a web based tool that is an essential part of our business and they will implement or load any form we want into their system so we can use it and it will populate customer information based on their mapping. I know they use an xml token for the forms. So I created some custom forms in Acrobat Pro DC with some custom calculation scripts in them because the company we are using can only do mapping or simple calculations.

 

I sent them some forms and they loaded them but each text field that had a custom calculation script in it is showing up on their site with the text fields completely missing and the java-script does not work at all. Even the fields that I set a default value but no custom calculation script in is completely missing once we download them.

 

They provided me their mapping cheat sheet so I could map everything to their xml token and that part works fine. It is only the fields that is using any form of java-script.

 

How can I fix this or how can I help them understand where to implement my custom calculation script? I can happily email them the script for each field I need so all they have to do is copy and paste. Would my java-script even work if they just copied and pasted my script to that field?
