Once the value is overriden by the user, the calculation won’t run anymore.

Also note the bug on calculation overrides. It was fixed in Acrobat/Reader 8.0.

Thank you for your reply, but I continue with the same problem, I did what you said but when I want to change the calculation value it does not allow. If i change Run at and select ” client” then I can change it, but the calculation does not work any longer.

Thnks

You need to set the “Object palette > Value tab > Type property” to “Calculated — User can override” and choose “script” as the source for the calculation.

I am just trytin to create a form in Adobe designer. My problem is what follows:

I have the followin expression:

F.P2.numCiswitch::calculate – (FormCalc, client) ———————————————

if F.P1.numCurrency ne 2 then
F.P2.numCiswitch.rawValue=45
elseif
F.P1.numCurrency ne 1
F.P2.numCiswitch.rawValue= 64.5
endif

But I want also the possibility that an user can modify this prices, but even if I entered “user entered- recommended” it does not work, because once I click the enter it goes again to the if expression values.

Thanks,

This can be done quite simply using script that identifies the current page out of the number of pages. Knowing that each page gets an instance of the master page, you just need script in a hidden button, for example, on the same master page as the two images that does this:

// JavaScript:
if (xfa.layout.page(this) == xfa.layout.pageCount())
    Image1.presence = "hidden";
else
    Image2.presence = "hidden";

The code above will leave Image1 visible on all pages except the last one where Image2 will be the only visible image.

I have two images at the same location on the master page. I need to print the first image if the current page is not equal to number of pages and if the current page equals to number of pages then print the other image.

I have a table in the main window that overflows through n number of pages. I tried it using the java script but it did not work for me. Can you please provide me some inputs.

Thanks,
Kiran.

You can force the list part of a drop down list to open programmatically by using the xfa.host.openList({object}) function where {object} is a reference to the drop down list.

To do this when the user clicks into the drop down list, you can call the function in the field’s Enter event which occurs when the field receives input focus.

horrible, I can´t find good FormCalc hints:

my wish:
when an user entered a drop-down-field or
especcially a calendar-element:
open the list withoutr cklicking to the button, you know!?

I believe it into the enter-event,
but…
…$.open.show…

please, some snippeds or a very good link
inner join stefcameron…?!

When you talk about a “Graphic node”, I take it you’re not referring to an XFA form…

To get these images into your form, you’ll need to get their base64-encoded byte strings into some table, make a data connection to that table, and bind the image byte column to a repeatable image field (i.e. an image field in a repeatable subform) on your form.
