Display Image based on field value but only when submit button clicked
Hi,
I havea really heavyweight form. It asks loads of questions & does a load of calculations culminating in the display of a complex wiring diagram. It's on the edge of acceptable performance so I'm trying to improve it's usability.
One thing I'm considering is using a submit button to display the final diagram - I know that'll take a moment of three to display but it will probably be a better UX. However, I'm really a novice with Acrobat and I'm struggling to display an image based on a given field, when the submit button is clicked.
In my test, I have 1 dropdown list field: Batteries (Options are 1, 2 or 3)
I have 3 images: Batt1, Batt2 & Batt3
I have 1 button: Show Images
I have added the Trigger/Action to the button (Mouse Up & Run A Javascript). The javascript is as follows:
(function ()
{
// Get No. of Batteries
var BatteryQty = getField("Batteries");
// Get references to the image
var f1 = getField("Batt1");
var f2 = getField("Batt2");
var f3 = getField("Batt3");
// Hide all of the images
f1.display = display.hidden;
f2.display = display.hidden;
f3.display = display.hidden;
// Show an image based on the No. of Batteries
if (BatteryQty == "1" ) { f1.display = display.visible;}
else if (BatteryQty == "2" ) { f2.display = display.visible;}
else if (BatteryQty == "3" ) { f3.display = display.visible;}
}
)();
I think the most it's doing is hiding the images. Can anyone offer any insights into this please?
