Free Text Display - enhance visible area

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I have a rather simple request:

I want to display several lines of a free text field (multiple lines of text).

Entering plenty of text is no problem, but then there is only one line displayed, you have to do mouse-over to see more, thats pretty annoying. I played a lot with the form editor but it did not work out.

is there a simple solution for that?

    Hi Massex

    You will not be able to do this in the header only in the body

    Could you show me a screenshot? I am really not able to find it.

    It is CRM online, the field is located in the header.

    Thank you so much!

    Hi Massex

    If you edit the properties of the field on the form and then there is the option to "Display number of lines" you can increase this to get your suited size
