combining javascripts

Question

Can someone tell me how to combine these three scripts so they will function as one? Each script functions but I'd like to have them work like this, the alignment would be set to left when Item.1 is visible and return to align center when hidden.

First script:

var f = this.getField("Item.1");

f.display = (f.valueAsString=="") ? display.hidden : display.visible;

Second script:

var f = this.getField("Item.1");

f.alignment = "center";

Third script:

var f = this.getField("Item.1");

f.alignment = "left";

Is this possible? Thank you.

Hello Bernd, thanks for the reply with the script, but sorry to say I keep getting "Syntax Error" and I'm not so experienced with javascript to figure it out. Or, how to modify the code.

You will have to fill in the missing parts 0 where Bernd used ... to indicate that something is missing. Based on your description, this should work:

var f = this.getField("Item.1");
if (f.valueAsString == "") {
  f.display = display.hidden;
  f.alignment = "center";
} else {
  f.display = display.visible;
  f.alignment = "left";
}

Why want you set the alignment to center when the field is not visible and empty?
