December 30, 200718 yr When dragging a new field into a layout, what determines the size of the field, font, attributes, etc???...I can't seem to get this to change from the current HUGE fields that are created..I know it's a simply solution but can't find in Help or anywhere else...
December 30, 200718 yr I don't know how to change the width of the box, in my FM9A the width seems fixed at 79 pixels. But the height is determined by the font formatting. You can change the default font formatting by clicking on an empty section of the layout (in Layout Mode) and changing the Font settings. That will set the default font formatting.
December 30, 200718 yr Also, command-clicking an existing object will change the default formatting to the clicked object's formats.
December 30, 200718 yr Three things that can help you with this are. FileMaker Preferences. Text Tool, i.e. change the Font (attributes) prior to creating a new field, or dragging one onto the layout. and take a look at "Select Objects by Type" tool. Lee
