Question

dynamic form

good morning all.

I need to create a dynamic form.

I need to add a new "text field" if some action happened (like click on a button)

but I need this to be added in the middle of an existing form, so the one on the bottom should move to create the space where will appears the new one.

Hope is clear.

Please see attach for a graphical illustration

Thanks.

If the only contents of the page are these fields then you can do it in a "normal" Acrobat PDF form, too.

I would create the fields in advance, hide the ones that are not used in the initial state and then move them into their new locations as needed. This can be done by setting their rect property (for the location) and display property (to make them visible/hidden).

However, if the page contains more elements, such as static text or images, then it's not possible.
