hi, how about date picker in libreoffice writer? I tried but when i-export it to pdf, it just a simple text box. I would like to present it with dropdown control. thanks
Is it possible to create butons that execute js code? I want to generate random numbers when the user clicks on a button
Nice tutorial
Thanx! After converting .odt to .pdf, on original .odt file, i can't make changes on text fields or checkboxes. The Form menu is grayed-out. Why is that?
Great!
Ever try a calendar dropdown in your PDF form? I can't seem to make a calendar dropdown field appear.
Hi great video, have you any idea how to edit incorrect names, company info in office libre CSV file. I have CSV files with email addresses etc but not all contacts have written their correct names. Instead there are random numbers or incomplete names. Can anyone tell me how to sort out my file into clean lists with correct names? Thanks Jason.
okay, time to install Libre Office, again. fortunately, I still have the intaller
Double clicking on text box does not bring its properties table up.
How to make the filled in data go to database for mail label and other data got to different data base (say in that data base I have file # and notes of what was ordered and how many.
I would like to know, How to collect Answers (offline in local area network)? and is there an auto scoring method based on Answers?
can be useful for teachers
Also, the text boxes only allow on line of writing no matter how wide I make the box!
When I add a text box it shows in blue lines and then it disappears. I'm struggling :-/
I created it then added the pdf to google drive and I can't fill it. I don't see the fill option, do you recommend any android app? adobe fill and sign is terrible.
Did you tick the "Create PDF Form" option in the PDF-export window? That did the trick for me.
I join those in being impressed. You deserve way more thumbs up then you have.
One field is noted as REQUIRED but can you MAKE it a required field? I'm having problems with this.... Excellent video though!
can we add images?
What about date field?
How could add amount to automatically words in that pdf
You can't.
Damn, you saved my ass
I want upload img how💔💔
Can Microsoft word do this?
Yes. Microsoft Office has more features.
You proved that we dont need to pay for Microsoft office☺☺🤘🤘🤘✌✌
Yes you do, if you want to create a form where it you want to enter something in the NAME field in page 1, and you what whatever you entered to appear automatically in another page with the NAME field. LibreOffice doesn't let you do that.
@@sdlock83 but now I have microsoft office 😅😅😀😀
Too fast for me to follow.
