Spacing on model-driven form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 85

Hi,

Probably a basic question, but I am have a model-driven app. The Main form has quite a few fields, and they need to be lined-up as accurately as possible within their form area columns. The trouble is, some of the labels need to be longer than others which puts the alignment of the fields on the form rather skewed. I have added spacers but these are either too big or too small, and I can't seem to be able to change their height (is this possible)?

Any ideas for how to line-up form fields correctly?

Cheers,

K.

    Hi partner,

    First, if you want to modify the height of the field label, unfortunately this is not possible.

    If it's about increasing the height of a text field, it's worth a shot(Increase the number of rows).This works with 'Single Line of Text' with the format 'Text Area' or with 'Multiple Lines of text'

    Would you mind showing us your main form?

    Thanks. Here is a snip. The red dots are where the fields in the columns are out of line, where I've used spacers to try to get them lined up, but still out of alignment as I would want.

    Hi partner,

    I found the same problem, but unfortunately, since Dynamic 365 uses a brand-new UCI, it will automatically adjust the layout, so it does not support modifying the height and width.

    Here's a workaround not sure if you'll accept it. You can display the label on top, I think it should look better.
