Hi Team,
D10.1.2, latest RB.
I have atext field in a detail row that has more characters than the width allows.
I'm sure there was a setting to allow the field to keep the width but expand the height of the field dynamically so
all the field characters are shown.

I think this is a case of can't see the forest for the trees. :-(
Where is the setting(s) please?

Regards & TIA,
Ian

    Hi Ian,

    TppDBText components have the ability to expand horizontally to fit
    text, using the AutoSize property.

    If you would like text to expand vertically, you will need to use a
    "stretchable" component such as a TppDBMemo. Be sure to set the Stretch
    property to True so it will expand beyond its original height.

    Hi Nico,

    Ah Ha! I knew the capability was in there somewhere. ;-)

    Thank you. All sorted.
