How do I change a reference field's "preview" window size?

MG Casey

When you hover over the preview icon in Fuji by a reference field, the window that previews the record is too small:

Is there an attribute I can add to widen this?

Hi,



The view that previews the records is the sys_popup view.



goto


https://yourinstance.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=incident.do?sysparm_view=sys_popup



This will open the Incident form in the popup view.


Then click on the header, Configure-->form layout.


Add the fields that you want to show on the popup. (Add only relevant fields that you want to show on a popup)



Let me know if this helps.

That's a good idea-   it's really my UI Macro causing an issue on the pop-up as it's too wide to be seen. I'll remove it from that view.

the sys popup view will only allow a certain number of fields to be displayed.



also i have figured out that if you have "sections"   typically only the first (top) section is displayed.


the view that pops up cannot be widened (that i know of)   but if you make the top section longer, the popup will become longer.


Hi @Steven Young

if you make the top section longer, the popup will become longer: How can I do that?
