Nav 2018 GridLayout Column Span Help

Posted on by Jaden Kuhn

Hello,

I mistakenly put my question in the wrong forum section so if you're seeing this again, my apologies..

I am simply trying to make a 3 column checkbox area for testing purposes but I am struggling with the column span property for fields. I am using a gridlayout set to rows (layout) and I am trying out the column span property but it seems to not work most of the time. For some reason, changing the column span of other grouped rows seems to affect the column span of individual fields in another group. Here are some pictures below to see more of what I am talking about..

In the image above, all checkboxes are set to 3 col span, when clearly they look like only 1 col span. If I change field named "11" for instance to col span 1, it will change many other fields that are not part of field "11"s group.

Is there some step I am missing or some property I am not filling out??

Thanks

Hi ZHU,

I tried FixedLayout and found that it doesn't solve my issue. It definitely arranges the checkboxes nicely but I need each textbook to have some text either above or beside it so it can be identified, sadly with fixedlayout I cannot accomplish this. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Hi, If this is a Platform problem, it will be difficult to solve. Can you try FixedLayout Control?

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
