Is it only possible to make 97 actions for a button in the form editing?

[miaaarup]

I have a pdf with a lot of form fields and check boxes and need to make a button to cancel all actions, as well as show and hide a lot of formfields that other buttons shows and hides.

I need to make 120 actions of a button and it seems that I can only make 97 actions. Is it really only possible to make 97 actions of a button?

I would also help A LOT if the "Show/hide a field"-action was just as easy to use as the "Reset a form"-action, where you can cross off a lot of actions in one action. In the "Show/hide a field"-action i have to create one action for each field to be shown or hidden.

Thanks in advance for helping.

I recommend you switch to doing it using a script. You will have no such limitations and will be able to do all of these commands under a single item.

Also, maintaining or changing it would be much much easier. The basic script to use to show a field is:

this.getField("FieldName").display = display.visible;

And to hide it:

this.getField("FieldName").display = display.hidden;

Duplicate these lines, adjusting the field name in each one, and place them under a "Run JavaScript" command, and you're done.

And if you use hierarchical field names, you can control a group for fields with a single statement. For example, to hide all fields that begin with "GROUP1." (e.g. GROUP1.name, GROUP1.address), the script would be:

// Hide all of the GROUP1 fields

getField("GROUP1").display = display.hidden;
