Width And Layout Of The Search Screen.

Hello,


when I was building up my first nuBuilder interface I noticed the max width in pixel of the search screen is fixed I guess to 1000 px.
My tables has many fields and is impossible to display all of the names of them in the header.

I wonder if more appropriate to organize the layout of the search in such a way to overcome those issue.
Anyway, before rethinking another way to organize its layout, how to fix it for large tables please?

P.S.: Nothing useful (or documented) I found in the wiki.


Thank you.

A Browse Screen is not meant to be used to display all fields in a record.

The only efficient way to view all the fields of a record (when that record has a lot of fields) is by displaying them in columns.

A Browse Screen is meant to be used to find a record, that you can then be viewed more efficiently in columns on an Edit Screen.
