Resizing the Note field in Form DocuView

Right now when looking at Attachments in D365, the form looks like this.

And the customer has asked if it would be possible to make the Notes field wider and higher.
I have found a way to make the field wider, but when I try to make it higher, that does not work.
Since I need to extend the standard form DocuView and when making an extention of the form it does not seem to be possible to edit the fields properties.
So instead I have made the following extention class.

internal final class CUS_DocuViewForm_EventHandler
{
[FormEventHandler(formStr(DocuView), FormEventType::Initialized),
public static void DocuView_OnInitialized(xFormRun sender, FormEventArgs e)
{
FormControl notesControl = sender.design().controlName('DocuRef_Notes');

if (notesControl)
{
notesControl.width(500);
notesControl.height(500);
}
}
}

And the width seems to work, but the height does not work as expected, this is how the form looks with this change.

So while the Height of the notes field is larger, the number of lines shown from the note is not.
Does anyone know how I can change the size of the note field on the form?
