Please keep in mind • Not every PDF viewer supports choice field. • The handling can depend on settings in the PDF viewer. In adobe reader for example I had to disable an option to avoid that it tries to create an appearance itself • Standards like pdf/A disable features of form fields too (as you typically can’t change the PDF). 2 Choice fields Choice fields are drop down menus or scrollable lists where the user can selectoneor more entries. They can also contain a field where users can insert a free text. The export value and the displayed value can differ. Some values can be preselected. This means that various data will have to be set, and the sorting matters. The module here will assume that the various values are stored in sequences: checkifexportoraltname... Only the first sequence is required. Empty values in the display sequence are possible, then the normal value is used. 2.1 Types Choice fields can be a drop down menu (called Combo), which can contain an editable field. setfieldflags={Combo,Edit} or setfieldflags={Combo} If Edit is set, one can also set DoNotSpellCheck.

Declaration Hereby I declare that this paper is my original authorial work, which I have worked out on my own. All sources, references, and literature used or excerpted during elaboration of this work are properly cited and listed in complete reference to the due source. Bc. David Štencel Advisor: Mgr.

  • Delimit — Change Delimiter
    Title stata.com #delimit — Change delimiter Description Syntax Remarks and examples Also see Description The #delimit command resets the character that marks the end of a command. It can be used only in do-files or ado-files. Syntax #delimit cr j ; Remarks and examples stata.com #delimit (pronounced pound-delimit) is a Stata preprocessor command. #commands do not generate a return code, nor do they generate ordinary Stata errors. The only error message associated with #commands is “unrecognized #command”. Commands given from the console are always executed when you press the Enter, or Return, key. #delimit cannot be used interactively, so you cannot change Stata’s interactive behavior. Commands in a do-file, however, may be delimited with a carriage return or a semicolon. When a do-file begins, the delimiter is a carriage return. The command ‘#delimit ;’ changes the delimiter to a semicolon. To restore the carriage return delimiter inside a file, use #delimit cr. When a do-file begins execution, the delimiter is automatically set to carriage return, even if it was called from another do-file that set the delimiter to semicolon. Also, the current do-file need not worry about restoring the delimiter to what it was because Stata will do that automatically. Example 1 /* When the do-file begins, the delimiter is carriage return: */ use basedata, clear /* The last command loaded our data. Let's now change the delimiter: */ #delimit ; summarize sex salary ; /* Because the delimiter is semicolon, it does not matter that our command took two lines. We can change the delimiter back: */ 1 2 #delimit — Change delimiter #delimit cr summarize sex salary /* Now our lines once again end on return.
