Change the height of a textarea in Service Portal

[jonndoe]

Hi guys,

I have a textarea in one of the Service Catalog items in Service Portal that requires increasing the height as the content comes pre-populated and it's lengthy. I have a catalog client script tied to this record producer, which actually determines what content to populate onto this textarea.

I was wondering if there's a way to set a min-height to the textarea rather than hard-wiring the ID of the element, which has a format of 'sp_formfield_IO:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' ?

Any help is massively appreciated.

Regards,

JD

hi JD,

have u try configuring the widget instance's CSS?

this will only make css changes to 1 particular widget instance but not all widget.

if u have client script that populate, u can look for textread auto resize using javascript.

html - Textarea Autoheight CSS - Stack Overflow

javascript - Textarea to resize based on content length - Stack Overflow

Hope this helps.

Hi Bryan,

Thanks for your reply.

I have only two instances of SC Catalog Item, which is the widget in question. Not sure if there's an instance for each category item so I can target a specific form as I only see two instances. I decided to target this particular textarea using the wrapping div ID which is not ideal as I'm hard-coding a value of'c6fa024dc12ba900969782d58ed8d7d8' onto the CSS. However this addresses my concern for now

Really do appreciate your help!
