Browser width

Unread post by nubdev »

I am just getting into nuBuilder. I have created a table with 30 text columns of about 50 characters each. I have created a form to browse this table. However, the form only shows about 6 entire columns. The 7th columns gets chopped off. The browser does not scroll to the right to show the rest of the columns.

Looking at the php source, it looks like the <div tag defines width:968 which corresponds to beginning of the 7th column. I am thinking there must be some default setting to define a wider table/division/section. There is no documentation to indicate what the settings are and their values.

Can anyone help?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,


Currently nuBuilder has no setting which allows you to resize the width or height of the forms.

Did you want the 30 fields to appear on the browse screen or the edit screen? If it's on an edit screen, you could use tabs and have 6 text fields on each tab. If it's on a browse screen, you would need to modify the nuBuilder source code to use a bigger width for the browse screen (or even add a new field to the zzsys_form which you could use to specify the width for each individual browse screen).

Let us know how you go with getting it to work for you.


Regards,

Michael

Cypherinfo,

You'll need to have a go at that yourself as we would consider that a fork in the open source nuBuilder project.

(Something that we aren't willing to to create or maintain for free.)

We ( http://www.nusoftware.com.au ) would, however, consider doing this as a commercial / paid project.
