Hello,

I'm trying to get the best from the NAV UI.

3872.Cattura.PNG

Actually if I resize the window the filelds automatically gets smaller until let's say 10 characters. If I resize it more an horizontal scroll bar popups. I want to decrese the mininimum langth of a field to 4 characters.

How can I do so?

Best regards,

Giovanni

    Hi JohnBluerell,

    To be able to decrease the length of any field, you should go to the development environment, select the table, and click properties on the target field.

    Go to Lenght and enter the required length.

    You should use this option carefully.
