Can textboxes and other controls be resized?

Hi again.

Our client has weird request, they want some of the forms to have grid-like looks. As there's no grid available as a control I tried using standard controls in a row, but my form gets too wide. Is there a way of setting the control size directly, in pixels.

I'd suggest making some kind of grid view btw. I hate grids on web, but this is not the first time I had to do it for a client, I', sure my case is not unique...

    OK, I found this forum thread http://forum.spform.com/forms-designer/css-selectors-1/ and it helped me setting width, but it impacted all the fields on the form. How can I apply it to selected fields only?

    [#1]: Sure, you can assign a custom CSS class to the specific field in Forms Designer (e.g. 'your-custom-class') and define it in CSS-editor by the following way:

    .your-custom-class input[type='text'] {
    font-size: 18px;
}

    Hi, is there anyway to lock the size of a multi-text field so text drops to the next line instead of just auto-expanding the size of the input field?

    Thanks for all your help!

    [#3]: Hi,

    Sure, please assign CSS-class to your multi-line text field, e.g. 'multi-text' and define it in CSS-editor following way:

    .multi-text .fd_control {
  width: 200px;
}
