A unique form field identifier specifying a required form field object. You can obtain this identifier using these methods: AddTextFormField(Single,Single,Single,Single,String,String,Boolean,String,Single,Byte,Byte,Byte), GetFormFieldId or GetFormFieldChildID.
Set this parameter to true, if you want to enable the DoNotScroll flag, otherwise set it to false to disable it.

GdPicture14 Namespace / GdPicturePDF Class / SetFormFieldDoNotScroll Method

SetFormFieldDoNotScroll Method (GdPicturePDF)

In This Topic
Sets the DoNotScroll flag of a required form field, here a text field, that is specified by its unique form field's identifier and it is related to the currently loaded PDF document. As stated, this flag is only specific to text fields, so this method is explicitly applicable to text form field objects.

If this flag is set, then the text field does not scroll to include more text than fits within its rectangle. Once the field is full, no further text is accepted.

Syntax
'Declaration

 


Public Function SetFormFieldDoNotScroll( _

   ByVal FieldId As Integer, _

   ByVal DoNotScroll As Boolean _

) As GdPictureStatus
public GdPictureStatus SetFormFieldDoNotScroll( 

   int FieldId,

   bool DoNotScroll

)
public function SetFormFieldDoNotScroll( 

    FieldId: Integer;

    DoNotScroll: Boolean

): GdPictureStatus; 
public function SetFormFieldDoNotScroll( 

   FieldId : int,

   DoNotScroll : boolean

) : GdPictureStatus;
public: GdPictureStatus SetFormFieldDoNotScroll( 

   int FieldId,

   bool DoNotScroll

) 
public:

GdPictureStatus SetFormFieldDoNotScroll( 

   int FieldId,

   bool DoNotScroll

)

Parameters

FieldId
A unique form field identifier specifying a required form field object. You can obtain this identifier using these methods: AddTextFormField(Single,Single,Single,Single,String,String,Boolean,String,Single,Byte,Byte,Byte), GetFormFieldId or GetFormFieldChildID.
DoNotScroll
Set this parameter to true, if you want to enable the DoNotScroll flag, otherwise set it to false to disable it.

Return Value

A member of the GdPictureStatus enumeration. If the method has been successfully followed, then the return value is GdPictureStatus.OK.

We strongly recommend always checking this status first.

Remarks
This method is only allowed for use with non-encrypted documents.

Just to remind you that this method is only meaningful for text fields, otherwise it will fail.
