GdPicture14 Namespace / GdPicturePDF Class / SetFormFieldNoBorderColor Method / SetFormFieldNoBorderColor(Int32,Int32) Method
A unique form field identifier specifying a required form field object. You can obtain this identifier using these methods: GdPicturePDF.AddRadioButtonFormField, GdPicturePDF.GetFormFieldId or GdPicturePDF.GetFormFieldChildID.
The index of the required child radio button in a group. It must be a value from 0 to GdPicturePDF.GetFormFieldChildCount-1.

It is simply a sequence index of a radio button in a group, it does not correspond to the unique form field's identifier.

Example





In This Topic
SetFormFieldNoBorderColor(Int32,Int32) Method
In This Topic
Removes the border color attribute of a required form field, here a child radio button in a group. The radio button group is specified by its unique form field's identifier and it is related to the currently loaded PDF document. Please note that every single child radio button in a group of radio buttons within a radio button field can have its own border color defined, that you are allowed to remove using this method. As said, this method is only applicable to radio buttons.

Be aware that the border color attribute becomes undefined using this method, which causes the form field border not to appear on the page.

Parameters

FieldId
A unique form field identifier specifying a required form field object. You can obtain this identifier using these methods: GdPicturePDF.AddRadioButtonFormField, GdPicturePDF.GetFormFieldId or GdPicturePDF.GetFormFieldChildID.
ChildIdx
The index of the required child radio button in a group. It must be a value from 0 to GdPicturePDF.GetFormFieldChildCount-1.

It is simply a sequence index of a radio button in a group, it does not correspond to the unique form field's identifier.

Return Value

A member of the GdPictureStatus enumeration. If the method has been successfully followed, then the return value is GdPictureStatus.OK.

We strongly recommend always checking this status first.
