    Cascading dropdown support

    I am evaluating Aspose.Form for a current development project using C# .net

    Dose Aspose.Form support cascading dropdowns using the a second data source with the XDdocument.Dom model

    Additional, I see the formating of the forms are not as exactly as presented in Infopath

    are they options to update the icons to look like Infopath ie: insert buttons, date pickers

    support for infopath conditional formating and validation?

     

    thank you

    Hello,

    Thanks for considering Aspose.

    What do you mean by cascading dropdowns? We support binding drop down list dynamically, anyway.

    We don't provide cutomizing the UI elements like icon, or insert buttons.

    Conditional formatting and validation are not supported.

    Thanks,

    Cascading dropdowns - I am refering to dependant dropdowns from where you would select

    Make - Ford

    where Model would cascade only values pertaining to Ford

    Are you planning to support a similar look to the Infopath forms as they appear natively in Infopath?

    Are you planning to support Conditional formatting or validation from native Infopath?

    --

    If not are you supporting code behind pages to allow for these types of customizations?

     

    thank you

    Hi,

    You can dynamically bind the drop down list and other supported UI elements with data using XML. Please refer to http://www.aspose.com/documentation/file-format-components/aspose.form-for-.net/fill-infopath-form-with-xml-data.html for reference.

    Re: Cascading dropdown support

    thank you but I believe we are not speaking about the same thing- I understand how to populate with xml from your docs but
     
    Cascading dropdown I am referring to is as follows
     
    Three dropdowns - Manufacturer, Make, Model
     
    ie: Toys - Balls - Red

    starting with the first dropdown - Manufacturer the value selected will populate the values available for the dropdown = Make
     
    with Make selected the Model dropdown list will be populated
     
    so I am looking to see how to handle the binding of the subsequent dropdowns with the previous dropdown selection
     
    thank you - so does Aspose support what I am speaking of and do you have an example
     
    again thank you

    Re: Cascading dropdown support

    Ok. I got your point now. We are looking into it and will get back to you shortly.

    I just created an infopath form following the directions at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/infopath/HA011177131033.aspx and testing with our component.
