In an AL extension, is there a way to increase the height of an input box when a multi-line text blob field is displayed on a custom Business Central page? (see field below highlighted in yellow). At the moment it appears to be fixed to show 3 lines with scrollbars.

RE: Height of input box for Blob Field

I found this Control Add-In tutorial, which is helpful:-

Quick question: Rather than create a completely new user-control, can Control Add-Ins be used to edit Html attributes that are already there? (e.g.) If there are any textarea elements on the page with rows="3" I'd like to change them to rows="6" for instance? I know this can be done in javascript ( (i.e.) document.getElementsByTagName('textarea') ) but can it be done using a Control Add-In?

Hi, Unfortunately, as far as I know, there is currently no good way to expand the height, except using Control Add-In Object.

PS: You can expect Microsoft to bring the text editor in Send Email page to any page.

Hope this will help.

Thanks.
