All buttons except last row not working

[Demetrius5C2A]

I've created an interactive PDF where, when clicked, buttons show a pop up to the right of a grid. Also, if any other pop ups are visible, when another button is clicked, the open pop up closes. All of the buttons work except for the last row. Actually, the very last button in the last row works, but none of the others. We used InDesign to set the interactivity. I know that the interactivity can be set in Acrobat, but the interface makes it difficult to see which button actions are associated with each pup up. And the sheer number of pop ups makes it difficult to track. My team has poured over this for a week and connot figure out why the last row of buttons will not trigger their associated pop ups. Note: When we test the interactions in the ePub preview, the last row operates as designed. It's when it's exported as an interactive PDF is when they stop working. Here's a link to the interactive PDF.

It's extremely difficult to follow all of the commands associated with each button in this way.

I recommend you switch to using a script. It will make debugging such issues much easier.

The basic command to show/hide a field is this:

this.getField("FieldName1").display = display.visible;

this.getField("FieldName2").display = display.hidden;

Ah thank you! This works AND makes it easier to see what actions are applied to each button.
