Fillable form fields disabled

Good afternoon.  I created a work time sheet with fillable forms and calculations to sum up the hours.  The form also has a button to clear all of the fields so I can reuse the form.  Since COVID-19, I've had to work from home and when I went to fill out my form and add an electronic signature, I clicked Edit PDF by mistake.  It somehow turned off all of the fillable fields and locked all of the data that I had typed in.  I can't go back to an earlier version.  When I hit "Prepare Form", all of the fields appear, however, when I click on properties, the options are grayed out.  Almost like it's locked somehow.   Any suggestions on how to make the form fields editable again without starting from scratch?

Hi,

 

Clear the signature in the signature field.

 

After clearing the signature you should be able to continue to work and edit your PDF.

Hi Yixiang,

 

The topic that csenor posted has precedence over your inquiry.

 

Since your question has to do with javascripting, would you mind posting it in a separate thread?

 

I don't have any inconvenience answering your question, but out of respect to csenor who posted an inquiry about form fields and digital signatures, we should address your question outside of this topic.
