Autosize font for multiline field BUG

Post by joejoe »

We have set a multiline form field to be autosize. The result is that once the entire field is filled vertically the last line is cut in half. (see attached image )
bottom line cut off.pdf
Is this a bug or are we doing something wrong.

The form field is set to Courier Bold Auto size, multiline.

Thanks

HI joejoe,

thanks for posting your question. The dev team are finished for the week so you might not get an answer today. Having said that they do tend to 'hang out' here so I'll see if one of them will comment. Would it be a problem if it were after the week end?

regards

I am anxious to find out about this item and also another request I had entered in regarding the ability to customize/add-to the "right click" menu displayed when a form field has focus.(https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/ ... =36&t=9479)

If we can get answers to these items we are ready to purchase.

Thanks for you help in this matter.

HI Joejoe,

Ive had some feedback on this. A couple of things we need to know.

1. What version of the Viewer are you using. There was an issue like this that was fixed some builds ago. If you are not using the current build please update to build 2.5.189 and test again.

2. What version of Windows are you running and can we have the sample file? We will definitely need that to investigate should the update not resolve the issue.

thanks :-)
Best regards

Please advise the Version of Windows and note there is a later build - 189, please download and advise if this resolves.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

The new 190 build does not even show the text autosizing at all.

The text just keeps going out of the viewport of the form field without scaling.

The older rev scaled but cutoof text at the bottom of the view port of the form field.
