DEFAULT SIZE OF HTML VARIABLE

Nic Omaha

Hello, we have a custom application with a HTML field. When we open it up the default size is pretty small. I cant seem to figure out through field styles how to default this a bit bigger. Any Ideas??

Hello Nicholas,



As admin user go to Dictionary, personalize the list view and add Max length column. Then you can double click on the value and change it.


See below image as an example:

The value is already set to 64,000 and some change. Its not the amount of content I need to change but the default window size the variable shows when first openeing. We would prefer not having to resize the window every time. thanks!

Nicholas,



Thanks for posting - I had the same question. Further looking into it I was able to increase the window size by configuring the dictionary style. I hope this solves the issue for you as well.

Hi,

for me it worked following these steps:

1. Go to sys_ui_style table

2. Add a record with desired table and field to expand/set the height

3. In "style" field, add something like "height:200px" or "height:100%"

 

However, there's a bug since Tokyo as described in KB1208751 

 

Hope this helps!

Regards
