Field Labels occupy 50% of column width

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello all,

As of this week, I've noticed that every field with the label set to the left of the value is behaving oddly. On every record, on every entity, the "Field Label Width" value that I had set no longer determines the amount of white space between the label text and the field value. Here's a screenshot I had taken of a particular Form last week:

Notice how the labels and field values are spaced fairly close together. Here is how that same section appears now, with no changes made to the Field Label Width of that section:

7651.obfuscated2.png

The field values do not display until 50% of the column width has been taken up by the field labels. I'm well aware of how field label width should work, but all it seems to do here is determine how much of the space within the left 50% of the column actually displays text- notice that the bottom field label, "Risk Strategy Recommendation Look(up)" is still missing its final two letters, even with all of that white space available. That is because I have not changed the field label width from the value it held in the first screenshot.

If anyone else is experiencing this issue, or better yet has had any success in fixing it, let me know.

Thanks,

Logan

    Hey Aric, I appreciate you letting me know. That's been my running theory as well, given that I can't trace this back to anything I've done. Hopefully there's a hotfix soon, if that is the case.

    Hi Logan,

    I encountered the same issue yesterday on one of our project in a particular environment.

    It is possible that an update from Microsoft was pushed that caused the issue.

    I will let you know if we find an answer.

    As a bit more detail:

    I've tried viewing this across multiple browsers (Chrome, Edge) and have cleared my cache. Neither option has any effect on the display. This is not a browser or display issue, as multiple users have confirmed this behavior on their machine. This is something within CRM itself.
