I have a question? I am creating an interactive Plat for a subdivision for a client. I would like to have a small square on each lot, so when the mouse rolls over the square a large image of the lot and information will pop up. Is this possible? I do not want to have to actually push anything, I just want the information to appear when the move rolls over the small square
thanks,
Nick
An example PDF file set that may be useful.
I've combined the set into an Acrobat 8 package PDF (testmap_Package1.pdf).
This is available at acrobat.com here:
---| [url=https://share.acrobat.com/adc/document.do?docid=bcc3e106-db46-41d9-a733-c757e5737a05]Sample Package PDF[/url]
The individual PDFs are in a zip file (grandxprix.zip) here:
(Right click and "save target as...")
--| [url=http://daka630.com/bin01/grandxprix/grandxprix.zip]PDFs in ZIP file[/url]
n.b., the folder "grandxprix", containing the individual PDFs was zipped.
So, you may want to extract using folder name.
The file "01_testMap.pdf" is the file to open initially.
Form fields (some hidden) are used to provide the roll over effect.
A javascript in each form field cascades out to a link to PDF files
that can contain desired information.
The "menu(s)" appear when you click on a "tick mark".
When you open any of the "information" PDFs there will be two
PDFs open. The "information" PDF is on top of the "map" PDF.
Select Window on the command bar to see this.
Close the "information" PDF and you are back to the "map" PDF.
The blue-green tick marks represent the the towns in the county.
The green tick marks represent villages in the town.
Playing with it I've observed the following:
In network space and on the local machine the javascript used to present/access
the information PDFs works ok.
In webspace it does not work.
As (when I've time) I still have much to learn from Thom Parker's "pdfscripting.com"
I cannot explain the "why" of this .So, make a duplicate working copy of everything and take it all apart with
Acrobat's tools to see what's happening. Hopefully it will identify something
of use for your endeavor.
