How-to: Expand Free-text Fields for Viewing/Typing Purposes
Issue:
For a free-text field box (specially for comments), is there a way to enlarge the box such that a user can read and type large comments?
Solution:
Yes, this is possible and there are a few different options to achieve this fix:
Users can click to autosize column in the column header and this will allow the user to view the entire contents of the cell/column (autosizing columns also works in the transpose view)
Users can simply drag the column to expand/contract
Users can enable "Rich Text" under "Field Details" --> "Parameters" for the column as this allows users to view/edit the free-text in paragraph format (simply double-click in the cell and it will open the Rich-Text editor window in the worksheet)
