Widgets getting check marks instead of colors when the next one is clicked.
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 Best regards, Mikael PS If this method is outdated and there is a better one, please do not hesitate to tell me.

There are some examples in the test suite. In the latest acrobat check (and radio) rendering is a mess. The standard permits specific rendering and that has always worked ok. However, in currently interferes with acrobat pushing its own visualization on top. Some time ago took me days to figure out how / what went wrong and as a consequence I've removed some functionality simply because it is not rendered okay anyway. (It all has to do with generated appearance streams in the viewer, and I get the strong impression that there are no other apps out there that provide custom rendering.) One way out is to disable the (by default enabled) highlighting of fields in the viewer (which I found out by coincidence). That can also be done by a javascript by loading the rhh file.

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
