This hasn't changed in 7.1, but you are correct, the Client will shrink
a window to just the visible fields, but Mid-Tier sets its window size
based on the size the window was (un maximized) last time you saved that
Form/View.  In addition to that it includes enough space (via scrollbars
if necessary) to account for all of the space taken on the form, even
for hidden fields.  So to fix your form, open it in the admin tool,
un-maximize the window, set it to your desired size, save it.  Then look
at it in Mid-tier (after flushing cache and such of course) and you
should see the new size.  If you have multiple views, you need to do
this for each view, switch view, resize, save, switch view, etc.

Subject: Dialog windows in Mid-Tier 7.1 patch 2

** 

Greetings Listers,

I am experiencing an issue with opening a form in dialog mode on the web
where the behavior isn't like it is in the user tool and was wondering
if there's a trick to controlling the size. In the user tool, opening a
form in dialog mode keeps the border of the window just beyond the
actual real estate of your fields, etc. It seems like the behavior in
7.1 on the web is different than what I was used to seeing in 6.3. When
I open a regular form in dialog mode in 7.1 mid-tier, it appears to open
2-3 times larger than what I would expect to see. Any insight or tips
would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

 

ARS 7.1 patch 2
