Adding custom fields

web-app

We are on Version 2.0.2 of Gemini, and I am having an issue creating custom fields.

I added a textbox with a length of 80, and another textbox with a length of 20.  Both fields appear on the screen as exactly the same length.

Is there a bug with adding custom fields on this version?

Thanks.

The "Number of columns" is the setting that control the display size. Set it to different values.

What is the point of having to specify field size twice, which is essentially what you are doing?  This seems to be a waste of time and effort to define a field twice.

You do not define it twice.

You define one for the actual field capacity and one for the display size. so if your field is 100 characters long it will not take the whole width of the screen if you set the display size to 20.

OK, that makes sense.  However, "Number of columns" does not.  Perhaps it should say "Field display size" or something that would be meaningful.
