Hi, 

 

Have a txt box in a form that is not resizing when the window size is changed. The other txt box seem to resize but can't seem to find a difference in the settings??

    Check the Width setting - compare it to the Width setting of the others.

    The other will likely have something like:

    Parent.Width - Self.X - 20

    Whereas the one that is not resizing will be a static value like:

    355

    Does it show any errors when you hover over the formula in the formula bar?

    Could you send some screenshots to show the form and the formula bar for that item

    it seem to be ok when when "No" selected

     
    have the following in "visible" so the card will appear if "No" 
    DataCardValue257.Selected.Value= 'Planned Work Completed (SPDS)'.No
     
    When yes selected.

    Ok, can you look at the width for that datacard, rather than the control - looks like it has a width that changes conditionally?

    and are the widths of the other datacards the same?

    also is it contained within any container that might have different sizes?

    Ok, that's a weird one.. try setting the Width of the ProductionSupport text control to the width of one of the other text controls:

    Width=

    OtherCompletedWorkTextControlName.Width
