In a PDF form (Acrbat DC) I want that if one check box is active, another text field shows and is fillable. I changed the options of the check box so it displays or hides the text field. I also changed the text field to be hidden by default. The show/ hide works but I cannot fill in the text in the shown textfield.

Thanks for helping me.

You may also need to change the read only property of the text field. This is best done use some custom JavaScript to manipulate the text field.
