Hi, The solution is to fit your document in a A0 format with the addWatermarkFromFile function and nScale parameter set at -1, then fill 4 A4 pages with the same function but nScale parameter set at 1.0, nVertAlign parameter at app.constants.align.top and moves the nVertValue parameter by 842 pts for each of the 3 other pages That works fine, I did the test. https://we.tl/t-Ul2sOkCrHk @+   ...

Hi, I would suggest to write in validation script of the 3 e-mail address fields: if (event.value==null || event.value=="") { event.rc=true; } else { if (event.value.match(/\S+@\S+\.\S{2,}/)==null) { app.alert("The input doesn\'t suit to the syntax required for an email address.\rPlease modify, example: firstname.lastname@supplyer.com"); event.rc=false; this.resetForm(event.target.name); } else { event.rc=true; this.getField("PortfolioCorrespondenceEmail1").insertItemAt(event.value,-1); } } That will add the new e-mail address at the top of the combo box. You can improve the script to check if the e-mail address already exist or to sort the combo box... @+ ... View more

You can find several examples I did on a French forum.

Hi, You seem to be a specialist and must certainly be right. For my part, I don't understand a lot about these types of formats and I therefore try to find a solution for my script. Do you have a good cMIMEType parameter to set directly the creating of the data object? Thanks ... View more

...Sorry, but I don't understand how can I look at the hex codes!   After a lot of testing, here is what I found: Example #1 with the Tom's script -> works fine. Example #2 where I add some accentuated characters to the special characters of the first script  -> createDataObject("Example2.Txt", "Some ascii text then, ©™Σ plus éèàôùïîÉÈÁÀ","text/html; charset=utf-16") -> works fine too. Example #3 where I only indicated the accentuated characters -> createDataObject("Example2.Txt", "Some ascii text then, éèàôùïîÉÈÁÀ","text/html; charset=utf-16") -> doesn't work anymore. So I decided to do an Example #4 where I add these special characters to my variable in end of the script before creating the txt data object and that works fine (why ????). After several other tests I found I can add only one of these characters (©™Σ) at the beginning or at the end of my variable for working fine. Any explanation? So, for my script, I found the solution which is to create the txt dataobject with these symbols (or just one) then to fill it with my variable and streamFromString then setDataObjectContents.   Thanks for reading and providing comments on this post.   ...

Thank you for your answer. Opening the txt file with Excel, the Windows (ANSI) setting suits to display the characters correctly. In a firs step, I know the setting to use, but I don't understand what's happening with the text stored in a variable. Is there a way to set the txt created attached file correctly. Thanks ...

Hi, I come back on this post because I have a trouble. When the characters are written in quotes such as your example, that woks fine. When the characters are placed into a variable, that works fine too: var myVariable="Some ascii text then, ©™Σ"; createDataObject("Tst2.Txt", myVariable,"text/html; charset=utf-16"); In the script I'm writting, the variable is built all along the script and recalled at the end to fill the .txt file. In the screenshot attached, you can see the variable (lesDonnees) is correctly displayed when recalled in the console, but the special characters are not correctly displayed in the .txt file while the cMIMEType parameter seems to be correctly set! Do you have any idea on what's happening? Thanks ... View more

Great! That works very well... The "cMIMEType" parameter is not very well documented in the api reference! Thanks again Tom. @+ ... View more

Thank you for your answer Tom! "Use "utf-16"" -> That doesn't work neither. "However, why are you using a stream? The "createDataObject()" function takes a string as input." -> Because I haven't thought about that! But the result is the same... However, I found a solution. I attach a txt file already utf-16 formatted then I fill that file. That works fine... @+   ... View more

Hi Thom, Sorry for this late answer.  dialog.insertEntryInList({ "LST1" : { "abc" : -1 } }); works very well. I also discovered we can add a separator with: dialog.insertSeparatorEntryInList("LST1"); Are there any other useful tips like that? Is it possible for example to write an item in color?

Hi, You must write: if(v == "Response to Unlawful or Suspicious Activity") and place the script in "calcul" of the field if you wish keep "event.target.required". Else you place the script in mouse up of the drop-down field, but you will have to use "this.getField("UCR Offense1").required"= true/false. You need to tick "Commit on selection change" (I don't know the exact name in English). @+ ... View more

Hi, The Math.round function rounds a number to the nearest integer. • for a decimal number <.5, the number is rounded down (so 1.25 is rounded to 1) • for a decimal number >=.5, the number is rounded up (so 3.75 is rounded to 4)   For limiting a number to an integer: • for an unlimited number, you just have to control the key you are clicking, so put this script in "custom key script": var regxp=/^[0-9]$/; if(!event.willCommit) { if(event.change.length>0 && regxp.test(event.change)==false) event.rc=false; } • for a limited number (5 for example here below), you also have to check and limit the number, so the script will be: if(!event.willCommit) { var regxp=/^[0-9]$/; var aRslt=event.value.split(""); aRslt.splice(event.selStart, event.selEnd-event.selStart, event.change); var strTest=aRslt.join(""); var rpat=/^\d{0,5}$/; event.rc=rpat.test(strTest) && (event.change=="" || regxp.test(event.change)); } else { var rpat=/^\d{0,5}$/; event.rc=rpat.test(event.value); }   @+ ...

You are twice right! 1) I answered fron my phone and I didn't check the script and it is effectively wrong. I though it was the one I gave. 2) No need to add “if (event.value==""”... I checked! However, that's what I do every time. @+ ... View more
