• To delete a behavior, select the behavior in the list box, and click Delete.
• To edit a behavior, select the behavior in the list box, change the settings, and then click Update. If you need to
replace a behavior for an existing event, delete the behavior, and then add the new behavior to the event.
Event types
Events determine how behaviors are activated in buttons when the document is exported to Adobe PDF. (In Acrobat,
events are called triggers.)
Mouse Up When the mouse button is released after a click. This is the most commonly used event, because it gives
the user one last chance to drag the cursor off the button and not activate the behavior.
Mouse Down When the mouse button is clicked (without being released). Unless you have a specific reason for using
Mouse Down, it’s preferable to use Mouse Up so that users have a chance to cancel the behavior.
Mouse Enter When the mouse pointer enters the button area defined by the button’s bounding box.
Mouse Exit When the mouse pointer exits the button area.
On Focus When the button receives focus, either through a mouse action or pressing the Tab key.
On Blur When the focus moves to a different button or form field.
Behavior types
When you create a behavior, you specify the event that causes the behavior. (In Acrobat, behaviors are called actions.)
You can assign the following behaviors to occur when the event type is activated:
Close Closes the PDF document.
Exit Exits the application, such as Adobe Reader, in which the PDF document is open.
Go To Anchor Jumps to the specified bookmark or hyperlink anchor in the InDesign document you specify.
Go To [page] Jumps to the first, last, previous, or next page in the PDF document. Select an option from the Zoom
menu to determine how the page is displayed.
Go To Previous View Jumps to the most recently viewed page in the PDF document, or returns to the last used zoom size.
Go To Next View Jumps to a page after going to the previous view. In the same way that a Forward button is available
in a web browser only after someone clicks the Back button, this option is available only if the user has jumped to a
previous view.
Go To URL Opens the web page of the specified URL.
Movie Lets you play, pause, stop, or resume the selected movie. Only movies that have been added to the document
appear in the Movie menu.
Open File Launches and opens the file that you specify. If you specify a file that is not PDF, the reader needs the
native application to open it successfully. Specify an absolute pathname (such as C:\docs\sample.pdf).
Show/Hide Fields Toggles between showing and hiding a field in a PDF document.
Sound Lets you play, pause, stop, or resume the selected sound clip. Only sound clips that have been added to the
document appear in the Sound menu.
View Zoom Displays the page according to the zoom option you specify. You can change the page zoom level (such
as Actual Size), the page layout (such as Continuous - Facing), or the rotation orientation.
