Checkbox Show/Hide Object

[Carolina29697378x1qw]

Hey guys. I guess I'm not looking at the right articles or videos to solve this. 

I've built this form as a test in INDD & gave the checkbox a function where, when selected, a white overlay box (setup as a button in INDD) disappears, revealing the copy & form fields underneath.

I'd like to be able for that white overlay to appear again when the checkbox is unchecked. How do I do that?

The form fields are also "Hidden Until Triggered" so that they're not active while hidden under that overlay.

See attachment.

Of course, you can superimpose the two checkboxes so that the user only sees one.

Otherwise you must use JavaScript.

We were trying to avoid a 2-checkbox approach if it were possible. 

We're up for using JS. Just haven't found the best script for this one yet.

The built-in Show/Hide action is a one way ticket. But, as JR states, it can be used creatively to provide a simple show/hide solution. If this is as complicated as you want, then use it. This method has the best compatibility with non-Acrobat PDF viewers. 

If you need a more complex show/hide strategy, then Read this article:
