Hi

try this....

// Get interactibe form handler.

IWDPDFDocumentInteractiveFormHandler iFormHandler =

WDPDFDocumentFactory.getDocumentHandler(wdThis.wdGetAPI(),

"InteractiveForm");

// Get appearance setter.

IWDPDFDocumentAppearance appearance =

iFormHandler.getDocumentContext().getAppearance();

// Set page layout option

appearance.setPageLayout(pageLayoutOption);

// Set show option.

appearance.setShowOption(showOption);

// Hide menu bar.

appearance.hideMenuBar(true);

// Hide tool bars.

appearance.hideToolBars(true);

// Hide window controls.

appearance.hideWindowControl(true);

// Show full screen.

appearance.showFullScreen(true);

Hi Boopathi,

Have a solution for your query, albeit 3 years later I guess i started working on WebDynpro much later compared to you.

Hope you might have solved the issue when you faced the issue in 2007 but since the ABAP Webdynpro solution still doesn't appear anywhere in the forums, so thought of updating the message.

Below is the code for hiding the toolbars of Adobe form. Paste it in WDDOMODIFYVIEW method of your view.

DATA: LR_METHOD_HANDLER   TYPE REF TO IF_WD_IACTIVE_FORM_METHOD_HNDL,
             LR_WD_FORM TYPE REF TO CL_WD_INTERACTIVE_FORM.

  LR_WD_FORM ?= VIEW->GET_ELEMENT( 'INTERACTIVE_FORM' ).
  IF LR_WD_FORM IS NOT INITIAL.
    LR_METHOD_HANDLER ?= LR_WD_FORM->_METHOD_HANDLER.
    LR_METHOD_HANDLER->SET_HIDE_TOOLBARS( ABAP_TRUE ).
  ENDIF.

How does the solution posted by you solve the question i.e. with your code complete toolbar will be hidden whereas the question was to hide a specific button i.e. SAVE

Adobe Designer 7.1 uses XFA 2.4

If you can upgrade to Adobe desinger 8.2 to be abel to use XFA 2.8 you can code in the following way:

Write the following code in the preSave method

if (do_not_save_condition == 1) then
  xfa.event.cancelAction = 1
endif

Adobe Quote

 cancelAction specifies whether to cancel a forthcoming action. 
This property applies only to the following scripting events: prePrint, preSubmit, preExecute, preOpen, and preSign.
The user experience is determined by the scripting event that contains the cancelAction reference:
u2022  preOpen - The drop-down list does not expand to display the list of values.  
u2022  preSubmit - Form submission does not occur.  
u2022  preSign - The form is not digitally signed.  
u2022  prePrint - No print dialog boxappears, and the form is not printed.  
u2022  preSave The form is not saved. The user experience is that no action occurred.

Using this, the save button will still be visible but, you can prevent the form from being saved.

Hi,

You can try this:

// Get interactibe form handler.

IWDPDFDocumentInteractiveFormHandler iFormHandler = WDPDFDocumentFactory.getDocumentHandler(wdThis.wdGetAPI(), "<name of your form>");

// Get appearance setter.

IWDPDFDocumentAppearance appearance = iFormHandler.getDocumentContext().getAppearance();

// Hide menu bar.

appearance.hideMenuBar(true);

// Hide tool bars.

appearance.hideToolBars(true);

Hi Arafat,

I created an adobe form using ABAP server ("SFP" T-code) not in web dynpro java.

You told to use this code:

// Hide menu bar.

appearance.hideMenuBar(true);

But this code for hide total tool bar not only save button in the tool bar.
