I'm very much a newbie at using Live Cycle Designer (only got it a couple of days ago) so please bear with me if I come out with some dumb comments.
 
I am using the trial version of Designer ES2 v9 and Action Builder to create a form with buttons to allow users to dynamically add new rows to a table. That part I have managed to fathom out on a test form I'm playing with but the problem I have come across is that when I test out the function in Preview PDF, anything below the interactive table with the new rows is not being moved down the page in sync with the new rows. Eventually, if enough rows are added, the interactive table overlaps anything else below it. Is there something I can do to make objects below the interactive table move down the page as new rows are added?

My Product Information:
LiveCycle Designer, Windows

If I understand you correctly, you want the control buttons move with your rows? I am also a newbie, and I had the same problem. It looks like I solved the problem by wrapping the dynamic row and the buttons in their own subform.

Thanks for the reply which partially covers the problem. When I click the button to add a new row, any objects (i.e. other tables, text boxes etc.)on the page below the interactive one don't move down, they remain static. If enough rows are added to the interactive table it eventually "runs into" anything below it.
It would be handy if this forum had the facility to attach a document as it might explain things better if you could see what is happening.
