Add ability to make a Text box that has the text-wrap feature

In [SOA] company:
Run any MAS 500 task, then bring up Customizer.
Add a Text box control to the form, notice there are no properties such as MultiLine, or Scrollbar available that the user can set up to make the text box scrollable and text-wrap.

Business Reason:
There are usually not many free space available on MAS 500 forms to let a user to add a long Text box control to the form. Text-wrap feature can make the control fits in the form

  • Take a look at The Macabe Associates, User Defined field Engine. It think this might meet your needs. www.macabe.com

  • I would definitely agree, this type of field is a standard field type in any windows application and is surprising and unfortunate that is not available out of box.

  • +1 for this. I agree with Amir; it is puzzling and disappointing that this functionality is not available.

  • It is available, just not as a MS text box since you generally can't add the wordwrap and multiline properties at run-time and no separate control with these embedded properties was ever created. One workaround is to add a spread control in your code, set those properties and limit it to just 1 cell.
