Ashok Deivasigamani May 21, 2014 9:29 PM (in response to sceave_oo7)when submitting, are you submitting the form as a PDF document or a XDP data package (xml)

sceave_oo7 May 22, 2014 4:47 PM (in response to Ashok Deivasigamani)The form is a dynamic PDF which requires a number of digital signatures before it gets saved in an archive. I created an XDP without the digital signatures and the process fields worked as I would expect them too. Although I have not seen anyone state definitively, I assumed LiveCycle doesn't use the process fields after the initial load so as not to invalidate a digital signature. OR, I am doing something completely wrong . The following is a snapshot of the workflow:

Ashok Deivasigamani May 22, 2014 6:42 PM (in response to sceave_oo7)Let me replicate your problem in my form and check why its not working, I think I had faced similar issues in my earlier project, unfortunately forgot the solution that used, will check again and get back to you.
So in the form you are trying to get get the user action in the presubmit event to check what the user action was? and you are not able to get what value the user has selected

Ashok Deivasigamani May 22, 2014 11:10 PM (in response to sceave_oo7)Just now tried to get the user action selected in the preSubmit event for both XDP and PDF form in the Assign Task Activity and I am able to get the values in both the case.
I see no problem in getting the values, please let me know exactly in what senario you are not able to get the user action value in your use case.

Ashok Deivasigamani May 22, 2014 11:16 PM (in response to sceave_oo7)There are two possibilities why you are facing the issue.
1) Your form might have the default script object container_js , remove this srcipt object if you are not using it in your code and try again
2) Your code to validate if is executed before the assignment of user action to the filed you have mentioned might be failing resulting in the assignment code not executing in the first place. In this case try to give a xfa.host.messageBox(AWS_ACTION.rawValue, "", 0, 0) as the first line of your code in the preSubmit event and see if you are getting the values what ever you had clicked in the Workspace is displayed in the dialog box.

sceave_oo7 May 24, 2014 10:09 AM (in response to Ashok Deivasigamani)1) I don't see any container_js script object so I don't believe that is an issue.
2) AWS_ACTION always returns as the first option listed in AWS_CHOICE regardless of what button the user clicks in Workspace.
Also, when the PDF is first loaded in Workspace the correct User Actions are listed in AWS_CHOICE. We have different User Actions defined in subsequent steps, but the AWS_CHOICE never updates with the new actions.

Ashok Deivasigamani May 27, 2014 9:43 PM (in response to sceave_oo7)Hi,
if there is no NDA(Non Disclosure Agreement) with your client, can you share the form with me, so that I'll try use it in my sample process to identify what might be the cause of the issue.

sceave_oo7 May 31, 2014 4:47 PM (in response to Ashok Deivasigamani)Unfortunately there is an NDA and its not something I can share. I also don't have the luxury of starting from a fresh form. In your test workflow you have checked to see that AWS_ACTION is different at each step and matches your selected User Action? Can you share your sample form and maybe I can see what's different?
Thanks,
Brian

Ashok Deivasigamani Jun 2, 2014 7:23 AM (in response to sceave_oo7)I do not have a server at home, I worked the example at office and so I
won't be able to send the LCA, but I can however send the xfa form.
