July 5, 200718 yr Hello, I have a portal that displays some employees tasks, the task can be relatively simple, and take 1 line to explain, but some tasks are more complex, and the information that exceeds the row height are hidden, i need to click over them do display the rest I'd like to know if there is a way to auto adjust the row height to display all the information of that field. Sorry for bad english Thanks
July 5, 200718 yr Try attaching a Tooltip to the field in question. Specify a calculation to return the field in question as the Tooltip.
July 5, 200718 yr Author I tried it now, but it isn't so effective. So the row height in portals is permanent? I cannot make them auto adjustable?
July 6, 200718 yr Portals are meant to be a way to view your related data. They are very inflexible, as you have discovered, and others have pointed out. The [color:blue]Go To Related Record script step is one way to overcome this problem. Another way would be to adjust the hight of the portal, and the fields, in Layout Mode to accommodate two lines of text, and then add a Scroll Bar to accommodate seeing more lines of text when needed.

July 6, 200718 yr If it's important data, I like the more complex technique of opening a new small window to show the data. This lets you show practically any amount of data, in a nice little form view. You have to handle opening only 1 small window at a time, and closing it (and only it). I use a Loop, Pause to enforce a modular window. Be sure to practice, as it's easy to get stuck (always have a button, with the option to Halt or Exit current script, in the window).
July 12, 200718 yr Author Thanks for the tips! I'll try to do a small pop up window to show the information.
