Dear list,
1) Look at the output of this simple document (attached as test.pdf). If I click the first one I get a green square as I want. But when I click the second one the first one loses its color and get a check mark instead (tested on linux and windows). Is there anything I can do to keep the green square when the red is clicked?
%%% BEGINNING OF FILE \setupinteraction[state=start,color=darkblue]
\setupfield[setup 3] [width=1.2ex, height=1.2ex, rulethickness=1pt, framecolor=darkblue,offset=overlay]
\definesymbol [ryes] [{\framed[frame=off,width=2em,height=2em,background=color,backgroundcolor=darkgreen]{ }}] \definesymbol [rno] [] \definesymbol [wyes] [{\framed[frame=off,width=2em,height=2em,background=color,backgroundcolor=darkred]{ }}] \definesymbol [wno] []
\definefield [rcheckme][check] [setup 3] [ryes,rno] [rno] \definefield [wcheckme][check] [setup 3] [wyes,wno] [wno]
\starttext \field[rcheckme] Germany is a country in Europe.
\field[wcheckme] All germans are men.
\goto{Reset}[ResetForm] \stoptext %%% END OF FILE
2) In the example file above I also use ResetForm to clear all the checks. Is there a way to get a button/link such that when I click it all squares are "checked" (in my case colored red or green)?
Best regards, Mikael
PS If this method is outdated and there is a better one, please do not hesitate to tell me.
Hm, I now tried the file and the first problem is gone in acrobat reader at home (linux, acrobat reader version 9.1.2). In other words, the colors do stay here after checking other boxes. If I remember correctly I had ver 9.2 at the linux machine at work. About the version for Windows I do not remember. Ah, I read Hans' (thanks!) reply as I type this and so it seems to be a problem with later versions of Acrobat reader, which explains why it works at home but not at work. Maybe I should simply come up with another solutions to do these small tests for the students, as I cannot be sure what version they are using... Best regards, Mikael
