How do I resize a form

[silverbadger1967]

I noticed there are little 'x's in the corners of the form box but I am unable to adjust the height and width of the form.

Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks.

Hi

I am afraid there's no option to define forms width and height to resize it, However,  as a workaround, you may drag input fields and ajust the form size. check : http://prntscr.com/u1nvl and http://prntscr.com/u1o4w

I understand that you can modify and arange anything in the form. Lets say I have a detailed contact form. If I delete some of the fields there's now an empty area. How do you shrink or resize the containing frame so that space isn't there empty and doing nothing?

[silverbadger1967]

Thta is what I am trying to find out. Quite frustrating as you have all of the empty space.

Took me a while to figure this out- once you've got all the fields where you want them, select all of them indvidually and move them to the bottom of form area, it will resize automatically from the top down.

That worked, a bit of a roundabout way from a user experience, but worked nonetheless.

Thanks

Muse forms are just big enough to contain all the fields, labels, and button. If the form seems to be bigger than required, it's probably because the 'status text' is not showing, but it's not where you're expecting it to me. Select the form and switch the state to something besides 'Normal' and the status text will show up. Then you can select the status text and move it/resize it to the location you'd like it to be.

Good call. That's exactly what causes the issues! Thank you thank you!

Now missing tabs to choose to move from one field to another, especially to form two columns. And checkboxes, lists, radio buttons, please.

Using the tab key at any level of your isolated selection, will also sequentially reveal all 'lost' and hidden items. This method works with most Widgets by the way...

Hi,

Once you select a field, you may drag  to adjust form size using the transform options. Also you can resize the fields by mentioning the dimensions in the Control Box above, when a field is selected as shown here -> http://screencast.com/t/dCh8GfRZo1n

You may leave the 'Edit Together' option ticked to have them resized together.
