Adobe forms - hide field, move fields up

Former Member

Hello,

I am a newbie trying to fix an Adobe forms issue. I am using LiveCycle Designer 7.1 and scripting using FormCalc.

I have three address fields stras, street_4, city_zip displayed one below the other. Field street_4 is not mandatory.

If street_4 is blank, the address should be displayed as follows:

stras

city_zip

If street_4 contains a value, it should be displayed as:

stras

street_4

city_zip

I created a subform wraping all the three fields. Wrote a (FormCalc, Client) script in the initialize event of street_4. If street_4 is blank, an empty space is being displayed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

if (HasValue($) == 0)

then $.presence = "hidden"

else $.presence = "visible"

endif

Thanks,

Sreeni

I could not get that to work either.

Tried

  • Content flowing
  • hidden / invisible
  • different events
  • JS / FormCalc

nothing worked.

So I just changed the height property of the subform to 1 pt and hid the content of the subform.  Worked like a charm 😁

data.Teilformular1::initialize - (FormCalc, server)
if ( $record.xxxxx.isNull ) then
this.h = "1 pt"
endif
