Good day all.

On the new designer, what will be the best way to auto space single line fields to display the text

The GL Description, GL Code is the ones I need to show the full text.

Is it also possible to add a "Div" to the field that will display the value of the field?

Hi Zachary, 

In a scenario where there is a long description entered by the user on the single line field in the table, and the task is assigned to the next participant the user would have to drag the cursor to read the full description, is there a way to have a hover effect that will display the whole text? like this example below which works on the classic designer:

Technically, yes you can. I would make the argument that a 200px single line field is probably not the right form control for lorem ipsum haha.

The steps for setting this up would be:

  1. Setup custom html in the field's text above or text below. Likely some sort of "expand" icon
  2. onFieldBlur (if its a manually edited field) or onFieldChange (if its automatically filled) and update the html in text above or text below with changeFieldSettings to include the newest text
  3. Use CSS to control visibility and positioning of the textbox when the "expand" icon is hovered

 

If you want to learn more about this type of custom html setup I will be presenting an advanced Form Designer JS class at empower!
