Customising Activites Form and Display
August 28, 2014, 12:56:25 am
Hello All

I just have a couple of questions regarding Activities.

1. I have customized some fields.
I'd like to change the layout of a New Activity. As you can see there is not a good use of space.
(Image New Activity attached.)

2. When going into the user to view the activity, how CiviCRM displays the custom fields is again not very good.
(Image Existing Activity attached).

3. I'd like to have the option to display some custom fields in the "Activity Log", so you can see more of the activity without having to go into the client. Is this possible?

Is there anyway to make this look better?

Thanks everyone

This form has been improved quite a bit in 4.5. Those improvements might satisfy your need.
Try asking your question on the new CiviCRM help site.

Hello Coleman.

Thanks for the response. I have been testing 4.5 and posted a possible bug. To be honest I want to be able to manipulate the activities page to contain exactly what we want. It still does not let you make very good use of a large screen.

Cheers
Scott
