Using LiveCycle Designer ES2 9.0 on Windows.

Have a form that must remain static (not dynamic), and cannot get text labels to go invisible. I can get text fields to go invisible (based on selection of a radio group), but the caption remains visible no matter what. I have tried setting no caption and using a text box, but that always remains visible as well.

Any clues? I am assuming that with static forms you cannot set a caption or "text" as invisible. I have tried "hidden" as well as "invisible", no luck. Have tried both FormCalc and Java - same result. Example below in FormCalc

Two objects:

"Choice" as a radio group with Yes and No as options
"ChoiceReason" as a Textfield for a user to input a reason for selecting "Yes"

form1.Page1.Choice.No::click
form1.Page1.ChoiceReason.presence = "invisible"

form1.Page1.Choice.Yes::click
form1.Page1.ChoiceReason.presence = "visible"

The input section of ChoiceReason will become invisible if select No, but its caption remains visible.

Any help is appreciated.

go to form properties and make sure that though the form is static, but it should be interactive.

these settings would be in DEFAULT and PREVIEW sections in FILE > Form PROPERTIES

Thanks -

I am already set to "interactive form" in PREVIEW. DEFAULT has no setting for interactive. Maybe a difference in version 9.0?

Captions and radio buttons still remain "visible" even when you turn the page "invisible"...
