CRM 2015 change size of lookup search dialogs

Posted on by 985

Hi all

One of my CRM 2015 clients is finding that the standard size of the search boxes is too small to view a decent number of records at once. Specifically, when entering Products against a Quote, when clicking "Look up more records", the dialog box that pops up (that appears to be an iFrame) only displays 3 records in the grid. Ideally, I would like to change the height and width to display more records at once. 

I have noticed in the IE Developer Tools that I can modify the size of the iFrame there, but doing this on Form Load via jQuery does not appear to work, so the iFrame does not appear to exist at that point. Either way, I would think using jQuery, even if possible, would not be a supported method of doing so.

I have noticed posts around the place suggesting there is the facility to adjust the height and width of dialog boxes if you are generating custom ones via Javascript, is there a supported way to do the same for dialogs belonging to the standard CRM forms?

    I just saw your first link, thanks for the information. Shame that there is no way to do it as it is a common complaint by my customers.

    Thanks for your reply.

    No that isn't what I am looking for though, I am looking for the ability to modify the size of existing dialog boxes within CRM forms rather than display my own custom one.

    I don't think this is possible in CRM 2015, refer the following thread:
