Remove Blank page from Adobe form

Former Member — Thu, 14 Mar 2013 05:14:31 GMT

HI, I am getting a blank page in my Adobe form layout itself and i need to remove it. For my requirement i need to display each project in a new page and for that i am using the Go To Next Page option for my final Form pagination. And it goes to a new page but it also creates a blank page at the end, When i use any other option it does not go to the next page but starts filling in the same page where first project is finished. Is there any way to go to the new page with out using the option in the pagination of Go To New Page. ?

Please let me know if u know the solution.

Thanks,

Pavan.

Hi,

You will be able to do this with Javascript / formcalc and based on a condition from the context.

In the script area of a template page, you can add this script :

if ($.record. == ) then

{

$.presence = "hidden";

}

Also To hide a page it needs to be dynamic. set DYNAMIC = 'X'.

Hi Pavan,

Put a conditional page break in the item level.

If it is also not working, please give some more details to give the solution like what is the content of the form. Which information you want in the multiple pages.

Thanks & Regards,

Thanks Gourav and Debopriya for ur reply.

Gourav: can u give some more detail on how to write the scripting code which u mentioned.

like after the $.record what to write to get the blank page. Sorry but i am naive to this coding.

Debopriya: i tried using the conditional breaks also but dont understand if at all that is being executed.Can i debug the code written in the conditional Break tab. ? Well, in my form, i have to loop a table which can have multiple records and each record needs to be displayed in a new page. may be u can consider some thing like list of vendors and have to be displayed each vendor details. But each vendor detail should start from a new page.

Thanks,
pavan.

Hi Pavan,

To write the script code in your adobe form please follow the steps:-

1. Go to your form layout

2. Go to Hierarchy Tab in the left side.

3. Click on the specific which you want to hide.

4. Then go to Pallets in the Menu Bar on the top of your layout.

5. Then click on Script Editor.

6. Then there choose the event as form:ready

7. Write the above code in that event.

8. $.record describes the current element that is in your case it will be your page.

9. $.presence determines whether your object will be hidden/visible/invisible etc. as per your requirement in the form layout.

Gourav

Hi Pavan,

You are giving conditional break at item level.

You also need to put the conditional break at field level suppose at vendor no explicitly so that list of vendors have to be displayed each vendor details and vendor detail should start from a new page.

Hello Gaurav,

Could you please explain where to write dynamic = X, on which event and how. Could be very useful, because found in most forums that page should be dynamic to hide, dont know how to set. Kindly guide.

Thanks and Regards,
