resize content area using scripting

how to increase or decrease the size of content area of a master page in a adobe form using scripting ?

Hello Vijay,

As far as I understand the content area(like text field,input-field) can only be sized during the layout design and no re-sizing can be done dynamically. However, one trick can be - using the content as flowed in place of positioned. In this case you can control the size of the field by the type of content. If there is no content, the field isn't displayed at all.

Hi richa,

thanks for your reply, but content area is different from text field and input-field , your suggestion is valid as you said, if the fields are in subform and make the subform as flowed instead of positioned. Content area is on master page , which basically holds your body page contents.
