1. Partial drop down search giving unexpected results in DC

   I have been discussing an issue on this thread in the support forum: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2445804

   I will outline the issue below again, however.

   I have a drop down that is being populated dynamically: https://i.imgur.com/QKohGq5.png

   Users have the ability to do a partial search of the drop down, to filter down to what they're looking to find: https://i.imgur.com/S0P3T17.png

   However, when selecting one of the options from within the remaining options available, the results are not always as intended. In this case, I will search "Adult B" to choose Adult Brass Dragon. When selecting Adult Brass Dragon, the following script is enacted via the validation section of the drop down properties:

   applyMonster(event.value, 0);

   This should be choosing the option I chose, and passing it through my scripts to fill the rest of the form with information. Nothing else manipulates this drop down, aside from choosing the manual that needs to be chosen beforehand.

   This is what has happened when I selected Adult Black Dragon: https://i.imgur.com/3q7IJ6T.png

   Here is a video clip of what is happening as well: https://vimeo.com/253833882

   I am using Acrobat Pro DC, and Reader DC to test this. A user with XI has confirmed that partial drop down search works fine for him.

2. Check box changes to Signature field type arbitrarily

   After creating a checkbox, changing its name, modifying its size and assigning "Signer 1" as the participant role, it changes to Signature Field Type.

   Demonstrative Video Attached.

3. Form properties does not hold calulations

   It is not an idea, it is a bug.

   When I open two exact same PDF files, one that has been created 2 months ago with formula to insert the current dat, calculate prices and costs, and a freshly created PDF to include the exact same calculations to the exact same named fields, I cannot get one single calculation to stick. Neither when adding them via hand, nor via export and import function. When I go to properties/calculations and user definted calcuations and add the copied text there, click ok enough times thennothing happens. when i look into the field I just edited, the formula is not there anymore.

   What do I do wrong?
   macOS 10.12.6, Acrobat Pro DC 2017.012.20098

   Kind regards

4. Issue with Order Tabs Manual versus Unspecified

   May be a bug. This is for Adobe Acrobat Standard DC Version 2015.006.30355. Happens when dealing with RADIO buttons and using Manual Tabs setting. I can move the Radio group field over and over in the right panel, but it will go right back to original position after a Save and open in edit again. After moving it in right panel, it won't change the tab # when viewing tab numbers either. Discovered I have to select "Order Tabs Unspecified", make the move, and then save. It defaults back to Manual after every save (even when still in edit mode), so have to reset to "unspecified" if additional moves needed. Also noticed that even though I have a particular order on the Radio button CHOICES, it will randomly just order them differently. Ex: Made A, B and C choices. After a Save, the order may be C, B, A. Have to set to "Unspecified", manually move in right panel, and then save to make them stick. If it ever defaults back to Manual Tabs while doing multiple reorders, they don't stay. Has to be unspecified. I couldn't find any available reference that said this was the 'normal' procedure. All documents I found always referenced the MANUAL move.

5. Two submit buttons

   In https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/setting-action-buttons-pdf-forms.html you can read:

   “When you distribute a form, Acrobat automatically checks the form. If it doesn’t find a submit button, it adds a Submit Form button to the document message bar. Users can click the Submit Form button to send completed forms back to you. If you don’t plan to use the Submit Form button created by Acrobat, you can add a custom submit button to your form.”

   I added a Submit button to a form and when I distributed it I got two submit buttons: the one I added plus the standard one generated by Acrobat inside the purple banner, both buttons work as expected.

   I am using Acrobat DC Pro.

6. Add an addional field type, picture field, in the form creation feature.

   Add a new “picture” field that would allow inserting a picture type (jpg, jpg, eps, etc.) into the field. The when pasted in allow the user resizing choices such as zooming and cropping, as needed.

   I’m surprised no one has asked for this. I’m in construction and I think this would be needed for insurance forms or any field where photo documentation is being collected.

9. Acrobat External Editor Won't Open

   I cannot get the external editor to open from Acrobat. I've never had this issue in over 11 years of creating PDF forms.

10. Restore "Detect Fields" on-the-fly option for Create Form

    (Acrobat Pro DC)

    Suggestion: Add an on-the-fly "Form Field Detection?" checkbox above/underneath the "Requires Signatures" checkbox.

    In previous versions of Acrobat Pro, on clicking Create Form, there was an on-the-fly option to "Detect Form Fields? Yes/No."

    In DC, this option is changed into a default setting that always applies.

    Accessing it first requires reading the fine print (which I missed the first three times); clicking the link to the correct section of Preferences, finding the correct setting, and then checking the box. In total, 3 clicks to change a hidden setting.

    While I think it is a good idea to allow users to set their default preference, I should be able to do a temporary override. If there is such an option, it is not obvious.

    My work requires I do this both ways, so I am now changing my Preferences on an hourly basis.

    Suggestion: Add an on-the-fly "Form Field Detection?" checkbox above/underneath the "Requires Signatures" checkbox. Keep the Preferences option and have that affect the default behavior.
