Autoresize (Autoheight) Text Fields

Hi

Using Filemaker Pro 11 Advanced on Mac OS X want to make a simple autoresize field (autoheight) in Browse mode showing all the content without scroolbars and can't do it using autoresize. Only get a fixed field's height that hide data when browse and want to see all the content.

For instances I want to resolve this: if the field have 2 inches of height then data more than 2 inches are hidden.

Solution: If data have 3 inches of height then want an auto-adjust to 3 inches, if the next record is 2 inches of height then want to auto-adjust the field's height to 2 inches and so on. Browsing all the records want to see all the data with autoheight in the field.

Can do this in Filemaker Pro 11 Advanced?

Thanks.

Tom

Hi Tom,

You can not expand a field, only shrink it, and then only in Preview or Printing. i.e. it will look like it is in Layout Mode in Browse Mode.
