Seeing all text at once from a scrolling form field.

Is this possible? I have created a form field that allows scrolling text. Is it possible for someone to hover their mouse over that form field and something like a box would pop showing all of the text they typed? This way, they wouldn't have to scroll through the field to read what they typed.

Try adding the following custom Validate script to the text field:

// Custom validate script for a text field

event.target.userName = event.value;

This sets the tooltip text to the field value.

You can set the font size to "Auto" or make the field larger.

I unfortunately do not have that option. They have to be scrolling text.

If you cteated the form using Acrobat and the tool "Prepare form" , you should have yhe optiom.

How did you prepare the form?
