How do you resize a responsive form

[claire_allen]

Hi,

I am using the NEW responsive forms in Nintex and I have a repeating section in the form and have ran out of room for my columns, can anyone tell me how to re-size my form its currently 900 x 700 and I want to make it bigger so that I can fit more columns into the repeating section?

Would this work?

Thank you

Claire

Hi!

You cannot make it wider. You can only extend it in height. No possibility to change the width. And yes - you can only put up to 4 columns in a row. Hope it helps to clarify your doubts

Regards,

Is the height fixed now? I no longer see an option to change the height of a responsive form.

I'm also having this issue - my responsive form has a lot of white space at the bottom, it's a very small form (for starting workflows) and there's about 300px of space between the "start" button and the bottom of the form. I'm using it in a web part, so I don't want that space...

As you add controls to the form it will automatically expand the form height.

I've just run into the same issue. A customer's form has the need for 6 columns in a repeating section and I'm limited to 4 Columns or starting a new row in the repeating item. Not ideal considering 3 of the 6 columns are simply checkboxes. I dont want to go back to classic forms now, just so I can support complex (more than 4?) columns

From discussions with Euan Gamble‌, it sounds like they are aware of this and likely implementing a much larger number of columns for usage in Universal Forms.

Now.. to get our hands on Universal Forms... I've heard 2019, but January or December?

Hi Rhia Wieclawek‌,

We would like to get a preview out soon but no dates are announced yet.

So would 8 columns be enough?

Cheers,

why would you still implemented a limit there?

if I ran a form on a 4K monitor and wanted it to be as wide as possible, why should I still be limited to 8 (or arbitrary number of) columns?

Hi Marian Hatala‌,

Are you wanting to build a form to be used across desktop, tablet and mobile? Or just a form for desktop on larger screens?

Cheers,
