Also MacOSX ReadMe files. Note that a few lib/doc files are
also "updated" because trailing spaces are removed, but their file
formats are the same because they were recently updated at 83672113.
I did "git checkout LFUNs.lyx" because this file is generated
automatically and has a special header.

There are 6

possible types of fields in a PDF form:

|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Subsection
|
|
Text field
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
A text field is added by inserting the custom inset
|
|
\family sans
|
|
TextField
|
|
\family default
|
|
using the menu
|
|
\family sans

Custom
|
|
\begin_inset space ~
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
Insets
|
|
\family default
|
|
.
|
|
Write inside the inset the label for the text field that will be printed
|
|
in the PDF output before the field.
|
|
Here is an example:
|
|
\begin_inset Newline newline
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
|
|
\begin_inset Flex TextField
|
|
status open

|
|
\begin_layout Plain Layout
|
|
\begin_inset Argument 1
|
|
status open
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Plain Layout
|
|
name=customer
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
Enter your name here:
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
You must also specify a field name for text fields: Set the cursor into
|
|
its
|
|
\family sans
|
|
Params
|
|
\family default
|
|
inset.
|
|
There insert for example the parameter
|
|
\series bold
|
|
name=customer
|
|
\series default
|
|
(where
|
|
\series bold
|
|
customer
|
|
\series default
|
|
is the field name).
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
Using the same name for several text fields results in an automatic duplication
|
|
of the inserted text.
|
|
This is for example useful if the user should input a date that should
|
|
appear at different places in the form.
|
|
\begin_inset Newline newline

You must also specify a field name for choice menus: Insert for example
|
|
the parameter
|
|
\series bold
|
|
name=country
|
|
\series default
|
|
(where
|
|
\series bold
|
|
country
|
|
\series default
|
|
is the field name) into the
|
|
\family sans
|
|
Params
|
|
\family default
|
|
inset.
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
It is recommended to add a short name for every choice to be able to access
|
|
them and to know which one was chosen by the user.
|
|
This is done by adding
|
|
\series bold
|
|
=name
|
|
\series default
|
|
behind each choice (where
|
|
\series bold
|
|
name
|
|
\series default
|
|
is the choice name).
|
|
For example the radio type example contains this choice list:
|
|
\series bold
|
|
male=m, female=f
|
|
\series default
|
|
.
|
|
If the user chose
|
|
\begin_inset Quotes eld
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
male
|
|
\begin_inset Quotes erd
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
you know that he chose the choice
|
|
\begin_inset Quotes eld
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
m
|
|
\begin_inset Quotes erd
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
.
|
|
By specifying names you can also preset/propose e.g.
|
|
\begin_inset space \space{}
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
the choice
|
|
\begin_inset Quotes eld
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
male
|
|
\begin_inset Quotes erd
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
by adding the parameter
|
|
\series bold
|
|
default=m
|
|
\series default
|
|
.
|

The action that is triggered by pressing the button is specified by JavaScript
|

One often needs basic actions to be done by the PDF viewer program.
|

For example to print the form.
|

Such PDF program-specific actions can be triggered by adding inserting

the custom inset

The PDF viewer programs

\emph default

and

\emph on
|
|
Adobe Reader
|
|
\emph default
|
|
can handle all possible actions while other PDF viewers might only support
|
|
some of them.
|
|
However, all PDF viewer programs support the basic things like printing,

Customizing the action buttons requires the usage of boxes because things
|
|
like the width, height and border separation cannot be specified as button
|
|
parameters.
|
|
\end_layout
|
|
|
|
\begin_layout Standard
|
|
The easiest way to customize the buttons is to fill it with a custom box.
|
|
For example the button should be 4
|
|
\begin_inset space \thinspace{}
|
|
\end_inset
|
|
|
|
cm wide and have the height of 2 lines.
|
|
Then create this parbox:
