Form in Layout Container

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 197

So I have been playing around with the new Container Layouts and have noticed that they break the responsiveness of the Form's control.  As you can see in the screen shot below, the green section is a Horizontal Layout Container and it contains a form.  See that it is not filling the rest of the space to the right side,  I have Width Fit enabled on those top controls.  Also when it does start to fill the remaining space on occassion it extends past the scroll bar (second screen shot)

 

Now if I take the form out of the container, the responsiveness of the from is back to normal.  Everything works like it should.

 

The question is am I doing something wrong with the form where it does not work in the Container or is there a bug or should we not be putting controls like this in containers?

    Hi @MikeLockwood ,

     

    Since Containers are experimental features, there would might be some "odd" performance while using them. But as per testing on my end:

    You may try to drag the right border of the Container to adjust the width, Cards in the Form would re-adjust to the Width of the Form.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Now in 2024 this issue still exists. A 4 column form in design mode displays nicely. As soon as 'play' is hit, lots of white space on the right side of the screen.
