Dynamic vs fixed height container when viewing contact
August 17, 2007, 08:08:26 am
When viewing a contact, the tabbed container area has a fixed height. This means a large amount of space on my screen is unused and I need to scroll unnecessarily. It would be be a big improvement to have the tab container dynamically size to fill the browser window.

Similarly, a lot of horizontal space is wasted. Custom data fields are only displayed in a single column. I would like to have the option to display a custom data group in two columns like some of the built-in fields.

Barry - If you can submit a patch which behaves as you think the container should (and that works across common browsers) - that would be awesome.

Short of that, you can create a "custom" version of any screen template. This is particularly helpful for arranging your installations particular custom field configs. Check out the doc here:
