Hello, community. 🙂 I am creating a fillable form with some calculation and dependent options.But, I am encountering some problems. I already searched Google, here in the forum (in all topics related to dropdown), stack overflow ... And I still couldn't solve it.The first problem, and the most annoying: I create a dropdown that is dependent on the values ​​of other 3 dropdown lists, and that changes its content according to the choices of the previous dropdowns.I managed to generate the dropdown, with great difficulty, but when I click on an option, it does not keep the selected item, showing only the first item in the list.The second problem is that the list items only appear after I click on the dropdown and not before. It is blank / empty and, after I click it, it displays the result.I already checked the option to commit immediately after choosing, however, this did not solve the problem.I read, in another topic, that the "setItem ()" method is not the most suitable, b

Hello, novice here. I've attempted to pull information from two different solutions (credit try67 & johnk12695043 Validating Dates conversation). I assume I need the Today field to succeed, but if I don't, please let me know. I'm hoping I don't need it. Thank you for your attention! Today Field is using a script :"this.getField("Today").value = util.printd("m/dd, ddd", new Date());" My goal is to have two different alerts popup separately or simultaenously if it fulfills the following criteria: procedure date chosen is less than or equal to 2 weeks and 1 week from today's date. I'm using a Custom Date Text Field in the format of m/dd, ddd to give me (6/19, Fri format output).   Was my attempt at this a complete fail? Below is the validation script I attempted to run.var sToday = this.getField("Today").value;var sProcedure = this.getField("Procedure").value;if(sToday.length && sProcedure.length) {var dateToday = util.scand("m/dd, ddd",sToday);var dat

Hello Community,I am trying to write a folder level js script in acrobat pro that makes a HTTP post request to a server. It requires the value of the SSO token as the header in the request. When I made the request using postman by adding a header in the request as key="Cookie" and value="SSO=....;", it successfully hit the server and returned a response. On the other hand, when I tried to do it using the below code, it doesn't seem to hit the server and gets a redirection. I am not able to figure out what's the issue. Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.Thanks. ajax=app.trustedFunction(function(furl)){ app.beginPriv(); Net.http.request({ cVerb: "POST", cURL: furl, aHeaders: [ { name: "Cookie" , value: "SSO=....;" }], oHandler: callbackfn }); app.endPriv(); }); callbackfn = { response : function(...){ ... } }; ajax("https://...");

Hello.I have 10 fields with very similar names, the beginning of the name is identical, what changes is only the end, which goes from number 1 to 10. I want to create two buttons:1) By clicking on this button, the display of fields 1 to 5 is visible. And the display of fields 6 to 10 is hidden.2) The opposite happens. Display of fields 1 to 5 is hidden. And the display of fields 6 to 10 is visible. Is there an easy way to do this?I was doing it this way:this.getField("Field1").display = display.visible;this.getField("Field2").display = display.visible;And etc., one line for each field. But this seems to be a very inefficient way. Thank you.

A while back I created a pdf quiz through acrobat pro dc for my clients. Each question allows the user to select 1 answer from a drop-down list. The answers are statements. Currently, we are scoring these questionnaires manually. We have a key for the scoring method: Question 1:First statement for the answer=4 pointsSecond statement for the answer=3 pointThird statement for the answer=2 pointsFourth statement for the answer=1 pointsAll the questions are scored like this and we come up with a total that puts the client in a specific category. Is there a way I can use an if/then method in a text field for each question to place a score for each question that I can total at the bottom of the page or just a box that gives me the total number from the different answers selected? Any help or ideas on this would be great! I have been trying to use some scripts that I found throughout the community but I can't seem to get them to work.

I have a fillable adobe pdf form with some text fields to add comments, which on occassion is filled in with text overflow.  The problem is the text overflow can't be viewed after it's locked.  Is there a way it can be set up so it can be viewed after it's locked, or am I searching for something that just can't be done?  I can't find anything on the forums about this.I have it set up so the document locks when the manager adds their digital signature with the following script in the console...getField("Section Manager Signature").signatureSetSeedValue({lockDocument: true, flags: 128});Thank you!  

I’m having a problem setting up my dynamic email button.  It works fine if I use an email address without dashes (eg. smitht@dsv.org), but when I use the email addresses as shown below with a dash I get an ‘Invalid Email’ Warning.   I don’t know how to set it up as that is how the emails are supposed to be and I don’t know how to resolve it.  I have documented the script I have.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you!! //Submit button Actions Run a Scriptif(ValidFields()){   var cToAddr = this.getField("ForemanEmail").value;   // Set the subject line   var cSubLine = "eDAC "                + this.getField("Date").value + " "                                     &n

I have a form with two groups of related products and prices. When a user checks one product from the first group, I need it to automatically check the related product from the second group and display their prices if checked. They both need to uncheck together as well.The checkboxes in the different product groups need different names because I am also showing/hiding related prices based on the checkbox being checked and a variable quantity.My code doesn't quite work:The code for the First CheckboxDisplays the Price field when checkbox is checked, andChecks both boxes (First Checkbox + Matching Checkbox)but, it won't uncheck both boxes if one or the other is unchecked.var nHide = event.target.isBoxChecked(0)?display.visible:display.hidden;this.getField(“Price”).display = nHide;if (event.target.value!="Off") this.getField(“Matching Checkbox”).checkThisBox(0, true);Is it possible to get the checkboxes to check and uncheck together, just as if they had the same name?Thanks for any assist

Good morning! I am creating a PDF document that will be fillable through Reader, and there will be several buttons that are programmed with JavaScript to send the document to a different printer depending on the need. My goal is to create a quick way to send these documents with one or two clicks, and no involvement from the user on which printer they need to choose. This code in brackets [var pp = this.getPrintParams();pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.automatic;pp.printerName = "PRINTER NAME";this.print(pp);] works great for sending it to the specified printer, I just make a quick modification to the printer name and VOILA! However, there is no feedback to the user that the document did indeed print. It would be nice to have that feedback before they clear the form and start on the next task. So my question is this: is there a way to have the above code run, then to run another code that pops up a simple "Hey, that thing printed correctly!" after confirming it

Hello all,I want to write a folder-level JavaScript for Acrobat Pro which has a toolbar button which on clicking changes its color. I can add the toolbar button successfully but I cannot find the functionality to change the color on clicking in the documentation. How can I do this?Any help would be appreciated.Thanks.

I have set the items in the dropdown list as follows. var l = this.getField("Dropdown1");l.setItems(["One", "Two", "Three"]); This will certainly show "One", "Two", "Three" in the drop down list.However, when actually using it, for some reason only "One" can be selected.Even if I select "Two", "One" is displayed. I created a button for trial and wrote the code there.In this case, it worked as planned. Why can't I just write the code directly in the drop-down list?Is it possible to achieve the goal without creating a new button?

Hi all,I want to write a folder level script that has a customized toolbar button in Acrobat Pro. I am able to do it using app.addToolButton() by setting the 'oIcon' parameter. Now I want this button to change to another button ( with a different hex string) on clicking it. I checked the documentation but could not find it to add a different button at run time. Is this possible? Thanks for the help in advance.
