In D365 new form pattern, how can I specify one string control to specific height and width ?
For example in a tab page, I would like the control to take up the whole length of the display webpage.
You shouldn't do that; you should leave it to the responsive design. In your case, consider the Fill Text sub-pattern.
Also, look at Form styles and patterns > Frequently asked questions in D365FO documentation. There is one for Why can't I change WidthMode on fields in the Fields and Field Groups subpattern?
I know I shouldn't. But there is always some weird request that want to customize the look and feel.
I am trying to change to custom pattern and try each properties in turn to see which one work. This is really a tedious job.
If you are talking extensions, no property is going to work, but a code like this:
It must be slow, but it works.
[FormControlEventHandler(formControlStr(JmgRegistrationTouch, JobButtons), FormControlEventType::PageActivated)] public static void JobButtons_OnPageActivated(FormControl _sender, FormControlEventArgs _e) { FormControl formControl; FormFunctionButtonControl bundleButton; FormTabPageControl jobButtonsTab = _sender as FormTabPageControl; int i; for (i = jobButtonsTab.controlCount(); i >= 1; i--) { formControl = jobButtonsTab.controlNum(i); if (formControl.type() != FormControlType::MenuFunctionButton) { continue; } bundleButton = formControl as FormFunctionButtonControl; /// Look for your control on the tab page if (strScan(bundleButton.name(), 'THISISYOURCONTROLNAME', 1, 100)) { bundleButton.width(120); bundleButton.height(60); } } }
Height does not seem to work when set in extension.
Height does not work, need to set DisplayHeight
