Legacy Form Fields, Legacy ActiveX and Content Controls are actually 3 different things. The instructor talks about Content Controls and ActiveX as if they are the same thing. That dropdown in the ribbon which shows Legacy or ActiveX, the whole dropdown is called "Legacy Tools".

Is there a way to change the tab order of the form? For example, when you set up forms with fillable fields in multiple table columns, by default the tab key moves the user to the cell to the right. I'd like to set it so that tabbing moves the user down one column first, before moving down the second column.

Hi! So I’ve added Plane Text Content Control text boxes to a word document. I’ve gone into Properties and created a new font style (Arial sz 8), and then enabled/checked ‘Allow carriage returns (multiple paragraphs)’. When I click in the text boxes and hit enter and create a carriage return, the text font reverts to Times New Roman sz 12. How do I stop this from happening?

Can you add a Rich/Plain content control field into a text box? I've tried to add one but when I turn on restricted mode the content control fiields are un-editable. If I place them inside a table or just inside the word document they work but not inside a text box.

When you apply formatting to the text content control placeholder text it applies that to the user's input as well, which may not be desirable, just an FYI.

Thanks for sharing. You are very clear on each step. I finally can make the form. However, is there a way to specify the size of font that will be entered by the enduser? I have specified using the bold font when compiling the form. But it never turns out to be bold.

Is there a way to limit the text space (similar to number of characters) allowed for free text, so that it doesn't cause the page content to spill over onto the next page?

Hi, this was a good vid, I figured out most if not all of it before I watched it though, because I have been looking for a feature to link two or more content controls to each other. I have a document that does this that I found but I simply can't figure out how to reproduce it in my other documents. In this instance I want to have a document number in my Header, linked to one in my footer, so that if I change one the other is immediately changed. Not like a link but as a content control option. Can anyone assist please?

I there, Is there a way to make the drop down list have content run over several lines (carriage return) not just one line? Let's say I want a drop down with 2 different addresses to choose from. How would I do that?

@Mousedroid 2 жыл бұрын

Just wondering why you would have a check box for yes and no options? Since it lets you check both yes and no to answer a question. Shouldnt these be Bullets so only one answer is selectable?

All the videos are uploaded in HD. If it's blurry it's because KZfaq is changing your playback settings because of your bandwidth. Click the little cog on the video player and select 1080 to see it really sharp!
