Adjusting height of modern rich text fields

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 74
Is there anyway to adjust the height of a multiline rich text field.
 
This is a field where the initial data type is rich text, and not the old TEXT AREA type.
 
Before the RICH TEXT area data type was introduced, you could have a TEXT AREA field and then apply the Rich Text control to that field, which supported adjusted form field height, however it seems now with the introduction of the RICH TEXT field with the built in RICH TEXT EDITOR control now ignores whatever is put in the form field height setting.
 
In the modern app builder experience (and the actual published form) the editor always shows 9 rows. When you open it in CLASSIC EDITOR, the editor shows the number of rows you specify in the FORM FIELD HEIGHT, however even if published from classic editor, the published form still only shows the fixed rich text editor's 9-row control.
 
Is there any way to increase the size of this control?
 
To Confirm. the field length is sufficient, and the control scrolls to store more than the 9 lines, it just a poor experience to populate large amounts of text in such a "low profile" editor.
 
Thanks in advance.

    We do not have any field settings for the rich text editor control.
     
    You can try a solution mentioned in the below thread.
