For Grid Widget, keep the layout of "EDIT" screen

Postby rleyba » Tue Aug 16, 2011 1:46 am

Hi Steve,

I am using a couple of grid widgets in my form and our team likes the way you can "grow" the form with additional related entries and see everything in one long screen. However, when in "View" mode, the layout shifts to showing the related records on the left side of the window and users have to click on the related fields to display them.

Is there a way to override this behavior, such that in "View" mode, you still get the same nice layout as in the "Edit" window....but make everything read only? This makes it easier to print too....so everything is one long page.

Thanks very much.

Good idea... Not done automatically currently but not hard to create your own custom section :
