Hi Bruce,
At the moment (Accounts example attached, add an Invoice, then add Line Items to see the issue) the Wizard doesn't grow with any growth of information in the tabs (ie a child browse with records added to it).
Any chance this could get sorted out in NT8?

I don't think it can grow dynamically at this point (maybe in the future) but you can specify a height on the "Layout" tab to give it enough room for the browse.
cheers

Hi Bruce, yup the height field is there.
Unfortunately that doesn't solve the issue .. That in a wizard a user might add ten records to the child browse. In this case, the browse extends down below the "Previous/Next/Cancel" buttons (the bottom of the form). It's not a great look for the interface.
So it's a no go?

I'd have to dive into the JavaScript to see if there's a way to increase the hight there - but unfortunately I can't do that at the moment.

so, um, make the wizard "taller" by setting the height higher ?

So for 9 out of 10 records I have a great amount of blank space at the bottom of the wizard?
Crazy-talk Bruce!
Interface-wise, growing as needed is the only way forward.
If 1 record out of 10 has a really tall wizard, because it's got a lot of records, okay. In some cases it would be taller than most resolutions on regular monitoes (1024 height).
But if EVERY record had a really tall wizard, and most of that was empty space .. How is that good?
Am happy to wait - but forcing the height isn't the solution, at least for me. Sorry.

I agree, forcing the height is not ideal.
