Is there a way to make showformnotification show more lines? Right now it seems to only show one line and the little scroll bar doesnt do much and seems to scroll half way down so it doesnt show the text in a very user friendly way.

I have seen it show more than one row so not sure what factors make it go down to only showing one row.

I'm using chrome, while the scrolling seems to be a lot better in IE it still only displays one line

Example

if(AccountEntityType!=null && guid!=null) {
Xrm.Page.ui.setFormNotification("We've come this far");
Xrm.Page.ui.setFormNotification("Values: " + " " + AccountEntityType + " " + guid, "INFORMATION");
}

Those will show in a thin one line box at the top of the form but have to scroll to see both

It's probably one line per notification, so maybe you were trying to combine all of them into a single notification before

thanks, it seems to be displaying more now for some reason, I've got it displaying up to four errors and warnings. I'm not sure what conditions made it small and single line when I was testing.

Hi Matt,

I believe those notifications expand to the second line automatically whenever the text is too long to fit into one line. However, all HTML tags are simply encoded, so I don't think you can really enforce a new line there..
