Java Script not working correctly

Post by KerriTeam »

We use a Java script with Viewer to place Piece Marks in a PDF. With Editor, we only get part of the Mark. The Box and Line appear, but the circle end does not. (Though when you hover over it, it does say that it should be a circle.)

The Java Script we are using is attached. It seems that the "freetextcallout" is not working the same. (Or their script needs to be adjusted.)

Also, There are a few features that are not working with our Editor Pro version. I suspect they are just not implemented yet, but would like feedback to pass back to the people we have testing Editor.

1. Does not allow comments to be imported. "Menu:Comments>Import Comments..." is greyed out. Exporting works fine.
2. The font and font size in Stickys cannot be changed with the drop down menus. This too is greyed out. The font size can only be changed with the font size buttons on the toolbar.

I see that my colleague already had the Java Script question answered - sorry for the post on the same issue.

Just a reply on the greyed out features is necessary.

Hi Kerri,

Indeed those features are greyed out because they are not yet implemented.

Thank you. Is it planned for the next build or is it a bit further out?

Hi KerriTeam,

Build 307.2 is planned for mid Feb, but it will be mostly focused on fixing bugs, so I don't know if these features would be in it or e.g. 308 at this moment.

Any update on when comments will be able to be imported? I think that is our last major hurdle before changing over to Editor.

The font size is not a deal-breaker but a feature we would like to see soon.

HI KerriTeam,

Thanks for the post - We're looking at implementing this for build 310, provided that all goes well.

Cheers,
