Dear Paulo,

I want to set an editable combo box with a value other
than the ChoiceExports.
I wish that when the pdf is open, the combo box shows
the text that is my typed text.
I use setValueAsName and setText. But, it doesn't
work. Please help.

Thanks,

yun wang

here is my code:

Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4, 50, 50,
50, 50);

PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new
FileOutputStream("test.pdf"));
document.open();
       
PdfFormField topField =
PdfFormField.createCombo(writer, true, new
String[][]{{"value1", "First"},{"value2", "Second"}},
0);
topField.setFieldName("Combo");
// topField.setValueAsName("my typed alue"); //crash
adobe reader

TextField app = new TextField(writer, new
Rectangle(250, 700, 250 + 100, 700 + 20), null);
app.setChoices(new String[]{"First", "Second"});

app.setChoiceExports(new String[]{"value1",
"value2"});
     
app.setText("my typed value"); //don't work
     
PdfFormField fieldKid = app.getComboField();
topField.addKid(fieldKid);
   
app.setBox(new Rectangle(250, 600, 250 + 100, 600 +
20));

PdfFormField fieldKid2 = app.getComboField();
topField.addKid(fieldKid2);
     
writer.addAnnotation(topField);
document.close();
