Title: Form modeler not remembering "Long Text" sizings Describe the issue: The visual form modeler allows me to resize a "Long Text" input field via the mouse and the "drag"-handle at the lower right corner of the field. Unfortunately this is not translated into "size" and "height" of the fields properties, resulting in loosing these changes after saving and closing the form. To change the size of the form you can only use the properties "size" and "height" Suggestions for improvement: Either let the visual (drag/drop) change of the field automatically update the properties or disable the capability to resize the field on a visual level. Additional information:
Text area resize is automatically added by some browsers. This capability could be used as a shortcut to define textarea size, but currently they are expressed in rows and columns instead of pixels, so that change would need to be added.
The requested change is not in the scope of this release. Deferred to next.
The problem is that the browser allows to resize textareas, this can cause some confusion because the form-editor doesn't catch the new field size. To avoid that we disabled the browser resizing ability on design time.
