When I embed a can vas app in my MDA form the size it takes up on the form disjoints the flow is there a way to make the app display smaller. I adjust the display size on the canvas app itself that does not help.

Hi,

In Model-Driven Apps, the size of the embedded Canvas App is controlled by the form section layout, not by the screen size inside the Canvas App. That’s why changing the display size in the Canvas App does not reduce the space it takes on the form.

To make it display smaller, you need to adjust it from the Model-Driven form side.

Open the table form in the Model-Driven App designer. Select the section where the Canvas App is added. Reduce the number of columns in that section or move the Canvas App into a section with fewer columns (for example, a 1-column section). Then select the Canvas App control and reduce its row span if possible.

If it is still taking too much space, you can create a separate tab and place the Canvas App there instead of keeping it in the main form area. This keeps your form layout clean and avoids breaking the flow.

Hope this helps.

Thanks!
