Hi all,

we have a requirement to create a field with a label more than 20 words and user is supposed select an option (Yes or No)

It is basically a question   to which end user has to select a Yes or No

I have create a choice field with two choices( as stated above).

When i have added a label(20+words) .the label doesn't show all the words on the form

is there any workaround for this requirement or any idea about increasing the size of label in the form so that every word of label can be accommodated in the form.

In the above screen shot ( 2nd drop down) all the name was not accommodated as it is large.

Regards,

Sujan

Hi Sujan,



If you need the increase the size of the Column Label, then change the Max Length of the 'Column Label' field. This should work by right clicking the field & then selecting configure dictionary.

Also note, it will be a global change and once the size is increased, it cannot be decreased. Also you may want to deactivate 'Show/Hide Max length' UI Policy on the Dictionary entry table for a while to change the Max length.
