Hi!

Based on two previous answers I tried but problem was the same, spaces was there...

the answer chintan was perfect but i used multiple subforms to solve that.

solution:

I get all the conditional values in form and used them in Java script to hide the boxes.

1). I attached subform to each and every box, and named them as 1 . 2. 3. 4. 5. and made them as flowed.

2) I selected all the subforms and wrap them in the one more subform and made it as flowed. Only problem was in this case the order of subforms get changed and determind by system only i dont know why. except this bug we completed the task.

Hi,

I have the same problem. At runtime some of my feilds may not have values. In that case I want the other feilds with values to take up that empty space.

I tried steps mentioned by you and adding following javascript in form:ready event. But stil its not working. Would you please suggest me on this.

<javascript used>

data.Subform1.#subform[1].sample.TextField2::ready:form - (JavaScript, client)

if(this.rawValue==null){

sample.presence="hidden";

this.presence="hidden";

}

< My senario >

// in the layout design

textfield1:Name

textfeild2 : landline number

textfield3:cellnumber

if I dont have landline number , cellnumber number need to take up that empty space.

Hi,

As suggested, wrapping all the fields in a subform of type "Flowed" will solve the issue however we need to make sure that the fields are kept "hidden" not "Invisible".

You can also check the bottom margin for your field E-mail. if this field has bottom margin, the next filed will be separated by that margin space. So remove if there is margin given.

Thanks and regards,

Priyanka

Wrap all the fields inside a subform and set it to Flowed. This would ensure that even though you have hidden elements it would not take space.
