Great editor, though, and it does work well with 6.0.Just got my copy of Acro 6 for Mac OSX. Sigh.... Still can't use BBEdit Lite as an external JS editor (can't select the program in the "external editors" dialog).
BBEdit Lite has been replaced by TextWrangler - which works just fine with Acro6...
Hot Zot!! Man, that's nice! In just a few minutes playing with it, I found a couple of dead calculation scripts that I no longer need. I'm gonna like this one.
On the upside, the built-in editor will now allow editing of all JS's (there are a LOT of JS's in my forms -- probably too many).
Also try out the new script browser which is part of the debugger!
Same result, and RTF is what's in the checkbox. Guess it wouldn't have made sense to put "Allow XHTML+CSS" as a choice; nobody'd know what they meant.
A marvelously dandy feature is the ability to add RTF text to a text field. Haven't figured out how to use it just yet, but it's there in the field appearance choices. (Gotta quit playing with it and do that RTFM thing sooner or later.)
It's actually XHTML+CSS, not RTF - but the result is the same...
But why put the text attributes on the View->Toolbars->Properties Toolbar? Spent about twenty minutes trying to find a "Text attributes" selection or a Font->size | style | alignment menu to change some text to Bold. Now that I know where to locate it, it won't be a problem. But I predict that this will be an ongoing gripe point, and a frequent query to this list.
LeonardOne more point that I've noticed: The Touch-up Text tool now works very smoothly, and quite a bit more quickly, in 6.0.
