Hi,

I am new to LiveCycle Designer and I would like to trigger a change-event of component A by the change-event of component B. In other words, if component B changes, the script of the change-event of component B shall trigger the change-event of component A.

Is this possible and does somebody know how?

Thanks in advance

Hi Andrey,
but where do we know where to put the script that you gave:
ComponentA.execEvent("change");

is it going to a specific place, how can we find that place, is there a rule of thumb for beginners.

Hi,

Put in right into the script of change event handler. Select ComponentB, than in Script Editor (Ctrl-Shift-F5) choose change event and add there a script.

Don't forget to replace ComponentA in that script with the real name of your component.
