I'm hoping for help with a bug in 7.0.1 where the Expand Box is now visible on all Submitter (2), Assigned To (4), and Modified By (5) fields. The installer changed all these fields to 254 characters so they can hold the new longer usernames. The side effect is all these fields that had an Expand Box setting of "Default" are now showing the Expand Box since the field is now over 69 characters. This causes the field to overlap other fields next to it on almost all of our forms.
I want to hide the Expand Box without manually modifying all 3 fields on every view of every form (that's thousands of modifications and hundreds of form migrations I hope to avoid). I've looked in field_dispprop to see which substring may reference that setting. I used a test field and set it to all three values (Default, Hide, Show) and compared its propLong value. There were a handful of substrings that differed, but only one of them seemed to be consistent with other fields on other forms that have the same Expand Box setting. This substring was: "...\231\6\0\..." (Default) "...\231\6\1\..." (Hide) "...\231\6\2\..." (Show) I tested this manually by changing the value in SQL and then cycling AR Server. Oddly, the Expand Box was then hidden in Remedy Admin but visible in Remedy User. I even looked at the cached .arv file on my client machine and it clearly showed "...\231\6\1..." for that field. So there must be something else that makes this setting work. Does anyone know a way to do this? And does anyone know where all of those field display properties are documented?
