Dynamically hide Master Page in ADOBE Form

[cpz]

Hi All,

I am attempting to dynamically hide a Master Page when outputting an ADOBE Form, but page contents is blanked out and a blank page is still outputted. This is what I have in my SFP Form:

Variable GV_HAS_TEXT when = null, I want to hide ThirdPage.

Below is the Form Calc Script I have for ThirdPage in Events: Initialization, Form Ready and Layout Ready:

if ( $.GV_HAS_TEXT == null ) then

$.presence = "hidden"

endif

When the above script condition is met, the Subform contents are all hidden, but a blank page is still outputted at the end of the Form....which is what I don't want?

Would appreciate any assistance.

thanks,

Con.

I have found a solution, which may help others with similar issue:

1. In the Hierarchy View, right click 'data' node (highest level in hierarchy), and click 'New Page', which will insert a Subform at the same level as the 'Page Set' node. You should now see a new page appear in the 'Design View' Tab for the Subform.

2. Design your output for this page under the new Subform created in previous step. Insert a variable (eg. GV_SHOW_PAGE), inside this Subform and hide it.

3. In the Form Interface, set variable GV_SHOW_PAGE based on logic which determines if there is content for another page to be output, eg. set GV_SHOW_PAGE = 'X', else clear GV_SHOW_PAGE if not.

4. At the Subform level in the Hierarchy View, in it's 'initialize' event add the following FormCalc code via the script editor:

if ( $.GV_SHOW_PAGE == null ) then

$.presence = "hidden"

endif

The above code will stop output of the page.
