row autoheight in table view

Classic Servoy

I’m wondering if it is possible to create a table form that has an auto-rowheight property to make each row heigh enough to show all the data in the largest field of that row
(this is not necessarily always the same column)

No, the row height is determined by the tallest element on the row and it’s constant for all the rows, to achieve what you want you could use an html table inside an html area field.

This is not supported in Servoy currently. There is a feature request for it however: https://support.servoy.com/browse/SVY-856

You can vote for the feature to let us know it’s important for you

Hi Nicola and sorry to re-open such an old topic…

Do you mean that I can achieve filling one of my fields with an html table? i.e., using a calculation, something like

function my_calc_field {
return '<html><body><table><tr><td>'+myfield+'</td></tr></table></body></html>';
}

?

Thank you

No, unfortunately I mean that you can’t use a table view form but you have to use an HTML area and create an html table in there to show your records if you want auto row height.
