Lookup column size

shahparz · Post by **shahparz** » Tue Jul 03, 2012 10:45 pm

When converting a column to Lookup, sometimes
the lookup values exceeds the width of column.

How can we set the lookup values shows complete characters of lookup.

For example the size of the column we fixed is 50
but the characters of the lookup values are 70.

Please suggest something.

If you meant the width of the input element (e.g. <select> HTML element), you can add CSS styles to it.

Put your CSS code from here: "HTML" tab -> "Styles" sub-tab -> "Edit styles" button -> scroll to the bottom of "CSS Editor", and find this:

/BEGIN_USER_STYLES/

/* your CSS styles here */

/END_USER_STYLES/

I tested this, without success.

/BEGIN_USER_STYLES/
lookup table
{width: 100px;}
/* your CSS styles here */

/END_USER_STYLES/

You need to inspect the element id of the lookup field.

Let's say your lookup field name is "MyLookupField", then simply put this:

#x_MyLookupField { width:100px }
