Smartforms: Main Window columns cannot be made smaller

[#1]

Hello All,

I have to substantially change an existing smartform. The requirement is to add a large number of text fields to a template in a secondary window just above the main window. The main window has a table with header,main and footer sections. After adding the text fields to the template secondary window and increasing the size of the secondary window and reducing the size of the main window, the colums still appear in the original space of the main window and the text fields in the template appear where the colums start.. My question is how do I reduce the size of the colums so that they are placed in the re-sized main window and do not appear where I have placed the new text elements. .

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

thank you

Hello Shravan,

Attached is the smartform image..you can see the columns go into my secondary table even though I have reduced the size of my main window...

Hi David,

So you moved your whole Main window down, but the BOX'es did not come down with them. How are you printing the Boxes - Are you using Table outline patterns in your window for that? Is there any other window in place where you are printing your secondary window. Please post a screenshot  of the window alignment in smartform (Not the output).

Regards,

Shravan

The overlapping borders and frames are most probably not coming from the main window. They are probably being printed as a template from a secondary window. Find the secondary window which is printing the borders and frames and reduce the size of the window/template to match the new size of the main window.
