Question

Reset Form - Acrobat Pro

I really love this product but sometimes the bugs drive me up a wall.

 

I had a button that cleared the form. That would seem simple enough. Create a button, take the defaults. Select "Reset Form". Suddenly it stopped working. I've deleted and readded the button numerous times and the form won't clear. The only "unusual" changes I made involved the order of calculation. I deleted some radio buttons and added some stuff. Nothing that should affect anything as simple as "Reset Form".

 

I will happily take any advice that is offered. 🙂

 

Thanks - Jack

Did you select specific fields to reset? If so, maybe deleting those fields caused it to malfunction.

I would recommend using a script instead of the built-in Reset Form action. Try this code:

this.resetForm();

That's the problem. The box doesn't show any fields.

 

I'll try the javascript you suggested.

That did it. Thank you.
