    Custom field pick list display width? Reply Quote

    Hi All,

    I have two questions for the awesome OnTime crew!

    I'm working with a custom field that is a drop down list based on a stored procedure.  The problem is that I've not been able to control its physical with on the Windows form or the web form.  The Web form does expand to a valid size with some work on the client but the windows form is always limited to about 25 chrs wide.  Any suggestions on how I can increase the diesplay width on my add / edit forms?

    Second is that I'm in need of a Custom Field with a width greater than 50 chrs.  I'm able to increase it at the database and I've not had any negative fall out from the user interface.  Is there anything that I may run into trouble with by increasing the size of the custom field at the database?

    Thank You,
    Terryb 

    Got a post back from an incident I filed:

    In the near future we are looking to address this view problem with fields in the OnTime windows client. For now, you can either expand or enlarge the edit tiem windows which will also increase the visiabiliy of each field in the application making it much easier to read each value. Saving and closing an item will update the size of the edit item window which will display the fields properlly.
