How can I change the width of a field without affecting all others ?

I'm working with Text fields that have, for example Name, address, etc. on the left & the box to its right.
I'm further down the form & want to allow for a longer field description but then it changes all the formatting above.

You can change the size of the label, the text input box, and the field itself (border around the field in the design tab) - however there is one exception to being able to control the size of every field individually:
Fields that have "Labels left" or "Labels right" that are also the first field in a row will all share the same label width.
This is probably what you are encountering, this is how the fields work for now, those first in a row label left/right labels are all the same width.
Thanks,
Josh

  • How can i change the width of a webapp depending on the view?

    In Dashcode how can i change the width of the web app depending on the width of the view. I am using the stack layout.
    For example if view 1 had a width of 400 px
    the web app would have a width of 400 px
    if i changed to a view with a 400 px
    the webap would change to have a width of 400 px
    it automatically adapts the the hight of a view how do i do the same with the width.

    While they may auto adjust to what it thinks is a correct width, far too often it allocates way too much room and that causes lists with 4 columns to be much longer than they need to be and without the ability to adjust them, lists look strange.

  • How can I change the space between a checkbox and text all at one time? I have a lot of checkboxes in my form.

    How can I change the space between a checkbox and text all at one time? I have a lot of checkboxes in my form.

    Okay, I haven't found a way to add an extra space using Find/replace, but you might be able to add some text wrap to the check boxes that will push the text away from them.
    Open Find/Replace and click the Object tab.
    Click the Specify attributes to find button to the right of the Find Object Format: field.
    Under Basic Attributes, choose Stroke and then the Black swatch (assuming the black swatch is applied to the strokes of your check boxes). If there are no other stand-alone objects in your form with a Black stroke, this should be all you need. (If there are Black strokes on your table cells, they will be ignored.)
    Click OK
    Click the Specify attributes to change button to the right of the Change Object Format: field.
    Under Basic Attributes, choose Text Wrap & Other > Text Wrap > Type: > Wrap around bounding box (2nd button from left)
    Under Offset, set a Right offset at the distance you'd like to add (I don't know what units you use, but the 3-5 points might work for your purposes...might take some trial-and-error to get it where you want)
    Click OK
    Click Change All

  • How can I change the width of columns in (e.g.) the week view in Thunderbird / Lightning?

    As it currently displays, the Lightning display of a week doesn't fit in the window, so I'm forever scrolling left and right. I'd like to reduce the width of columns so that all 6 or 7 days (depending on whether it's a work week or full week) can be displayed within the window's width, without scrolling. There seems to be no standard way to configure this to happen.
    I have the calendar pane on the left reduced to its narrowest (I still need this for navigation, so I can't just get rid of it).
    I have tried zooming out, but all this does is reduce the height of events etc. within the columns, it does not affect the width of the columns.
    Thanks.

  • How can I change the width of bookmark toolbar buttons?

    I would simply like to alter the width of bookmark toolbar buttons to better display the bookmark title. I also have MultirowBookmarksToolbar addon installed.

    Add code to [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css userChrome.css] below the @namespace line.
    <pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
    </nowiki></pre><pre><nowiki>#personal-bookmarks toolbarbutton.bookmark-item { max-width: 20em; }</nowiki></pre>
    You can use this code for specific bookmarks (label name needs to be an exact, case sensitive, match)
    <pre><nowiki>#personal-bookmarks toolbarbutton.bookmark-item[label="Bookmark_Name"] { max-width: 20em; }</nowiki></pre>

  • How can I change the width and color of the title bar of the JFrame

    I would like to use the UImanager to change the look and feel of the title bar on all of my JFrames. How is this possible.
    Thanks in advance.

    I appologize for being rude, and thank you for your response.
    The reason I did not respond was that I don't think that your answer solves the question of top level containers (specifically JFrame). I have been researching the net and some of the text books to come up with an answer before I respond. To this point, I believe that the answer has something to do with changing the boundary. If this is the case I'm within four or five hours of the solution, and will publish. If not, back to the drawing board.

  • How can i change the tempo of a track without changing pitch?

    I did this before but for the life of me can't figure out how i did it. Usually when I change the tempo (BPM), the recorded tracks sound warbly. But on some of my projects, this doesn't happen even though they're "real" sound recordings.
    Both projects are using Groove Fix and under "Pitch" I have "Follow tempo and pitch" checked off. Why is one project
    changing tempo seamlessly while the other project is warbling along? Automatic tuning is not the issue because neither project is enabled for that.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    The reason some files sound funny and others don't is because audio is handled a few different in Garageband depending on it's source (audio your recorded vs Apple Loops vs non Apple Loop pre recorded audio). Each of these have different color regions with different properties.  I just found this thread that might better explain it:

  • How can I change a color of an image without affecting the texture, but based on a pantone pick?

    Here is an image of a paintbrush stroke that shows the texture of the paint.  I want to change the color to a specific pantone green in order to match a specific color pallet.  Rather than just using hue saturation to "guess" at the color (no pantone number), is there a way I can actually set a base color without losing the texture?

    You can only use the picker values as a guide on an image with many tones.
    I presume you are going to print as cmyk, so find the mix of the target colour and make a 'solid colour' adjustment layer and choose that mix. Then set the adj layer properties to 'hue' which should do it.
    Otherwise, add a 'hue/saturation' layer (and click on colorize in the adj layer palette) and move the slider to suit.
    If you convert to greyscale, you could colorize the pic with the spot colour too.

  • How can I change the opacity of a symbol without changing the individual opacities of symbols within it?

    I'm trying to do a crossfade between two movie clips, but they each have symbols within them. The Flash I'm using is CS4.
    In other words, how can I stop this from happening?
    Thanks in advance!
    -DC

    It has nothing to do with symbols inside the movieclip.  If you fade the opacity a movieclip you see thru it.  If you want to fade from one to the other without seeing both at the same time then you need to fade them sequentially (one after the other) so that the background color is shown during the fade.
    If you were to have a rectangle of the background color and fade tha in and out over the movieclips , switching the movieclips one atop the other half way thru that cycle that would be one way.

  • How can i change the color of a field in a table depence of a value

    Hi forum
          Is this possible to change the color of a row in a specific field of a table depends of the value of this field,,, for example if the value is equal or greather than 1.
    Thnks
    Josué Cruz

    Josue,
    Yes this is possible if you use the fillColor method. It requires R,G,B value of color.
    //Sample code which highlights cell2 in my table which has two rows.
    frm1.Table1.Row2.Cell2.fillColor = "120,120,120";
    // If you want highlight complete row.
    frm1.Table1.Row2.fillColor = "120,120,120";
    So now just apply an if loop which reads the input value as greater than 1 and use the code shown above.

  • How can we disable the OSX Access Point functionality without disabling all wifi.

    Curious if anyone knows a way in Lion/Mountain Lion to disable the OSX access point features.
    i have about 50+ macs in our company for iOS development. lately we've had a lot of rogue AP's showing up, people bridging the internal network by activating the "become a hotspot" feature in OSX. this is a *GREAT* feature, don't get me wrong. especially the latency and ease of use.. but in our case its causing problems, and i'm looking at a way to disable the AP features without disabling ALL wifi with something like.
    /usr/sbin/networksetup -setairportpower en1 off
    this is a bit too much ,it disables the entire airport/wifi. we want to only disable the access point capabilities.
    any hardcore guru's out there have some advise?
    TIA!

    Enabling sharing services requires administrative access, so one option is to set this and only give folks standard "managed" access. The Internet Sharing service is a process called "InternetSharing" that runs as the root user and establishes all the appropriate services for the needed connection. You could technically remove or even rename this process on systems to prevent it from being used, or remove or disable its launch daemon. These files are in the following directories:
    /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.InternetSharing.plist
    /usr/libexec/InternetSharing

  • How can I change the order of thumbnails so it affects the order in the lightbox when using the composition widget - lightbox display?

    Hi, I'm making my portfolio in Muse, and I'm using the composition widget - lightbox display. I imported all the images and then I wanted to reorganize the thumbnails - and when I do that, the order in the lightbox doesn't change and so it's not the same as the order of the thumbnails (after rearranging them). Please let me know if there is a way to fix this quickly, or do I have to do it all one more time

    The order the items display in a composition widget is the front to back order of the items. You can rearrange the stacking order of the thumbnails/triggers using the Layers panel and/or the Object > Bring To Front, Send To Back, etc. menu items to adjust the order they're displayed during auto play or when clicking the next/previous buttons.

    af|selectManyShuttle.mycustcss::content { width: 800.0px;}
    The first selectManyShuttle came up very wide and the second one came up in the default width..
