How do I change the background color of textField2 based on the value entered in textField1(Acrobat DC)?

[pritym42174092]

Could you please help me solve this issue (I'm new to adobe acrobat dc):

Javascript written in textfield1(Color1) - Actions:

var C1 = this.getField("Color1");

var S1 = this.getField("Swatch1");

switch (C1.rawValue)

{

  case "PMS 100":

  S1.border.fill.color.value = "0,174,239";

     break;

  case "PMS 101":

  S1.border.fill.color.value = "236,0,140";

     break;   

}

Is this a form created with LiveCycle Designer?

I'm trying to create form with acrobat dc not life cycle designer. I was able to create this in life cycle designer. But it doesn't work in acrobat dc.

Don't use JavaScript for Designer. Use JavaScript for Acrobat.

Javascript is being used for Acrobat DC and it's not working.

Did you read the Acrobat JavaScript Reference?

Hi.

You can use this JavaScript (not tested) as a calculation script in the textfield2:

var myField = this.getField("textField1");
if (myField.valueAsString == "AAA") {event.target.fillColor = color.red;}
else if (myField.valueAsString == "BBB") {event.target.fillColor = color.blue;}
else if (myField.valueAsString == "CCC") {event.target.fillColor = color.black;}
// etc.
