RadioButtons

I've moved it to this more suitable section ;-)    Ingo

Hi all.

I have sample code.
  1.Create output.pdf file with 2 - checkbox and 3 - radiobutton.
  2. Read output.pdf file, select checkboxes and try select radiobutton
      and save new file. But in new outputres.pdf file checkboxes are    
      checked but radiobuttons empty.

I can't select radiobutton !!!! 

1) Create pdf file.

.....
spPDF->UnlockKey("---")
......

spPDF->NewDocument();
spPDF->SetMeasurementUnits(1);
spPDF->SetOrigin(1);
spPDF->SetPageSize(_T("A4"));


long NormalFont = spPDF->AddStandardFont(4);
long BoldFont = spPDF->AddStandardFont(5);
long FieldIndex  = 0;
long SubIndex    = 0;


spPDF->SelectFont(BoldFont);
spPDF->SetTextSize(10);
spPDF->DrawTextBox(20,20,100, 5, "Which of these fruit do you like?", 0);

spPDF->SelectFont(NormalFont);
spPDF->SetTextSize(10);
spPDF->DrawTextBox(27, 30, 55, 5, "Orange", 0);

FieldIndex = spPDF->NewFormField("LikeOrange", 3);
spPDF->SetNeedAppearances(0);
spPDF->SetFormFieldBounds(FieldIndex, 20, 30, 60, 5);
spPDF->SetFormFieldCheckStyle(FieldIndex, 3, 0);

spPDF->DrawTextBox(27, 40, 55, 5, "Peach", 0);
FieldIndex = spPDF->NewFormField("LikePeach", 3);
spPDF->SetFormFieldBounds(FieldIndex, 20, 40, 60, 5);
spPDF->SetFormFieldCheckStyle(FieldIndex, 3, 0);



spPDF->SelectFont(BoldFont);
spPDF->SetTextSize(10);
spPDF->DrawTextBox(20, 60, 100, 5, "Which is your favourite fruit?", 0);

FieldIndex = spPDF->NewFormField("FruitChoice", 4);

SubIndex = spPDF->AddFormFieldSub(FieldIndex, "Banana");
spPDF->DrawTextBox(27, 70, 55, 5,"Banana", 0);
spPDF->SetFormFieldBounds(SubIndex, 20, 70, 60, 5);
spPDF->SetFormFieldCheckStyle(SubIndex, 4, 0);

SubIndex = spPDF->AddFormFieldSub(FieldIndex, "Apple");
spPDF->DrawTextBox(27, 80, 55, 5,"Appleeee", 0);
spPDF->SetFormFieldBounds(SubIndex, 20, 80, 60, 5);
spPDF->SetFormFieldCheckStyle(SubIndex, 4, 0);

SubIndex = spPDF->AddFormFieldSub(FieldIndex, "Grapes");
spPDF->DrawTextBox(27, 90, 55, 5,"Grapes", 0);
spPDF->SetFormFieldBounds(SubIndex, 20, 90, 60, 5);
spPDF->SetFormFieldCheckStyle(SubIndex, 4, 0);

hr= spPDF->SaveToFile("C:\\output.pdf");//save the file to disk



2).  Read file and  mark  checkbox as checked (work)
     and try select radiobutton.

........

spPDF->LoadFromFile("C:\\output.pdf");//load a local file

long s = spPDF->FormFieldCount();
for (int index=1; index<=s; index++)
{
    long type = spPDF->GetFormFieldType(index);

    if (type == 3) // checkbox
    {
        _bstr_t val = spPDF->GetFormFieldValue(index);
        spPDF->SetFormFieldValue(index, "Yes");
    }

    if (type == 4) // radiobutton
    {
        long chd = spPDF->GetFormFieldSubCount(index);
        long chd2 = spPDF->GetFormFieldKidCount(index);

        for (int i=1; i<=chd2; i++)
        {
            _bstr_t sub_name = spPDF->GetFormFieldSubName(index,i);
            long subindex = spPDF->GetFormFieldSubTempIndex(index,i);
            long chd3 = spPDF->GetFormFieldKidCount(subindex);
            long sub_type = spPDF->GetFormFieldType(subindex);
            spPDF->SetFormFieldValue(subindex, "Yes");
        }

    }
}
spPDF->SaveToFile("C:\\output_result.pdf");//save the file to disk

Hi again.

Maybe it doesn't work and I try do impossible.

Hi.

I had holiday and now return to radiobuttons again.

1. I have field with type radiobutton (type = 4) and 3 subfields in this field.
2. long chld  = spPDF->GetFormFieldKidCount(indexField);
    get child count = 3;
3. for (long i =1; i<=chld; i++)
    {
       long subindex   = spPDF->GetFormFieldSubTempIndex(indexField, i);
       _bstr_t subName = spPDF->GetFormFieldSubName(indexField, i);
       long typeSub    = spPDF->GetFormFieldType(subindex);  
    }
   subindex is like us 1426064130 number.
   typeSub = 4 - radiobutton too.

   First subName is "Off" why ? What is the subField ?
   And next are correct names but needs use chld+1 for get last field ?

I can change  text, style for subFields.
       spPDF->SetFormFieldCheckStyle(subindex, 1, 0);

But I can't do select for one subField !!!!!
    long res = spPDF->SetFormFieldValue(subindex, "Yes");

Who did something like, help me please.

Pasha.

Hi all.

My monologue continuing ))).

Needs set default value to the field, value is one from subfields.
spPDF->setFormFieldDefaultValue(indexField, "one from subfields)";

Pasha.
