Can't change dynamic text ino XFA PDF form.

Post by Stoil »

Hello.
I have a XFA PDF form with a combo box. The user can choose 2 options and the code has to change text of 2 fileds.
The code is like this:

if (this.rawValue == 1)
{
this.Subform1.MainTable.HeaderRow.DropDownList2.selectedIndex = 1;
this.Subform1.MainTable.HeaderRow.DropDownList3.selectedIndex = 1;
}
else
{
this.Subform1.MainTable.HeaderRow.DropDownList2.selectedIndex = 0;
this.Subform1.MainTable.HeaderRow.DropDownList3.selectedIndex = 0;
}

With Adobe Reader has no problem but with PDF-XChange Viewer has.
Is this some limitation?

Regards,
Stoil

Hello, Ivan
Here you are the XFA form.
There is a combo box on the top of the form, which choice has to change content of upper row of the tablle below.

Thank you in advance!

Hi Stoil,

I apologize, this appears to have slipped a little under the radar. I've just tested in the latest build of the Editor and it appears to work properly here. Could you please download and test the latest build, after reading the KB article below, and let me know if the issue appears resolved for you:

Hi, Will

We are talking about PDF-XChange Viewer and Viewer AX.

It was one of my first posts here and I put it in Board index » End User Forums - Current Releases » PDF-XChange Viewer (End Users)
And we have waited for release of Viewer AX without this bug.
I am sure that this bug was only in Viewer before 5 months, not in Editor, which you mentioned now.

Hi Stoil,

when you say AX I assume you mean the ActiveX SDK, not the End user products?

I think some confusion has come from the fact that you posted in the End User forums. Regardless, we hope to have an update as to where this is at very soon.
I have created a Support Request Ticket to ensure that this does not slip through the cracks again: #2829: Can't change dynamic text ino XFA PDF form.

Hi, Paul.
When we started testing of your product, we used only PDF-XChange Viewer and that's why I posted here this bug.
I know that Viewer is the same with Viewer AX ( PDF-XChange Viewer SDK ), that's why I didn't move my post.

Hi Stoil,

On 27 Nov Ivan told me that he is looking into the problem, but then I finished for the day and forgot to follow with him on the next one. Going to discuss that with him again today!
