Calculation Sum zeros

[eson]

Hi,

I made a nice form field document for work report and everything is fine. There's just one thing I am wondering about... is there a way to disable all the zeros in sum field?
I know about the visibility options but that doesn't cover my needs. I just want to disable the zeros as long as there is nothing to sum.

I do not know if this information can already help you...

The "Properties" of a text box where you like to see nothing in case if it is 'zero', should have to following particular settings:
- Format Value > Category = Number
- Value Validation > Validation = Custom Action
- Validation action = Run a JavaScript... --> if (event.value==0) event.value = "";

Myself, I do not know if there exists a general setting to make this happen for the whole PDF.
Actually, you have to change these settings separately for each individual text box.

Hello eson,

Willy is right, there is no such setting for this, so you will need to use JavaScript. Complex forms do often require the use of JavaScript.

I hope this helps!

I was suspecting that I needed a script, but scripting is definitely not my speciality, so thanks a lot for the script. It solved my problem very elegant.
