Hello everyone,
I have a PDF document that I'm currently working with and having trouble creating one of the elements. This document is a quarterly status report. It has boxes for Indicators, Data Sources, etc.
The last field is just called "Status". I turned this field into a drop-down menu with 3 options - In Progress, Needs Review, Completed. I would like the user to be able to select one of these options from the drop down menu and have the fill color of the box (field) change based on their selection. If they select "In Progress" the box changes to yellow, "Needs Review" the box changes to red, "Completed" the box changes to green. Because this document will be used by many people, the colors will provide a quick snapshot as to which projects/activities are on task and which needs to be addressed.
Again, based on their selection:
"In Progress" = yellow
"Needs Review" = red
"Completed" = green
The background color can be white or transparent when no options are selected.
I've been searching and have found a few examples, but nothing close to what I'm looking for. Is this possible to do, and could someone please provide the custom validation script? I know this option is easy and available in Excel, unfortunately there's no smooth way to convert the document without hours of clean up.
I appreciate any help!
