Long Text Area (32000)

 Hi all,

 

I have above text filed on my Visualforce page as below:

 

<apex:panelgroup >

<apex:panelgrid columns="3" border="0">

<apex:outputText value="Note" id="cNote"/> :<apex:inputField value="{!OppSearch.Note__c}" required="false"/>

</apex:panelgrid>

</apex:panelgroup>

---

 

By default, the box is only 4-5 line high. I am just wondering if there is a way to increase the size of the box somehow please?

 

Many thanks

You have two options to achieve it

1) Edit the field and specify greater value in "# Visible Lines"

 

2) Instead of using "<apex: inputputField" use "<apex: InputTextArea rows="10" cols="100" /> "

where rows determine the height and cols determine the width in characters.

Click "Edit" on field name with data type "Long Text Area", you can modify the "No of Visible Lines" property as displayed below:

Sorry...for some reason screenshot didn't came through.

Refer section "Long Text Area Options" containing field property "# Visible Lines". Hope this helps.
