Title: Placement of fields on a form
Post by: Keith on September 27, 2013, 08:41:14 PM

I have already had a round of advice (mainly from Bruce) about Form Field Placement but now have another question.

It relates to the placement of fields in rows that are disparate in terms of their number and length.  It seems that within NT assumptions are made re field placement on some rows that take into account the number and length of fields overall.  this means that (in my case) they don't look as good as they could and they waste form real estate.

My full dissertation is contained in the attached document.

All comments gratefully accepted.

Thanks

Hi Keith,

Obviously one solution is to use a Text field for the message instead of a String field - that would fit better, but it's not what you're asking.

What you want to do can probably be accomplished with CSS, but I'd need a small example to play with to be more specific than that.

cheers
Bruce

Thanks Bruce.  Using a text field is fine - it achieves the goal of reducing the form real estate and it looks compact.  I should have read the book more carefully.

This works for me so I'm not going to go further, I have an IG2 fish to fry!

Thanks
