Disable Checkbox

[suemo22]

Hi,

How do I disable checkbox?

                                      {

                                            type: "check_box",

                                            item_id: "SPst",

                                            name: "Preview Filename",

                                            variable_Name: "bSaveWPostFx",

                                        },

I want this checkbox to always be checked (read only/disabled) so user cannot uncheck it.

In the dialog's initialize event you can load a value and set the field as

disabled.

See the documentation of the execDialog method for more details and

examples.

Can you send me a link?  I just tried to look up execDialog and was unable to find a good answer.

Do you have the JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference? If so, you'll find it under the app methods.

Example #2 demonstrates both applying a value and setting fields as enabled/disabled.

Basically it would be something like this:

initialize: function(dialog) {

    dialog.load({"SPst": true });

    dialog.enable({"SPst": false });

}
