Field position and size issues

I don't understand your description. You say ...

1. You say "too far to the left" but your arrow points to a field that is on the right
2. You say "I need it right about fields below but I am not sure which fields you are refering to because all the other fields on the form are below second section horizontal line.
3. You say "too wide, how to trim width". This makes sense but it would be helpful to see the screenshot without the options selected as it is obscuring two fields (First Line Maintenance and Power Condition)

1. Field with "PLUS" in it should go to the right, to be above those 2 fields at the right. About at the same position where is that black text.
2. Here is the photo. Lots of wasted space for 3 letter text. Max characters in the menu doesn't help.

Thank you for trying, I changed unsuccessfully layout in the meantime. It will take me forever to replicate it.

I still can't see how I could position the table in exact place I want, wherever that might be.

Other issue, why do I need to have huge width of the field for only 3 letter word?? I guess no screenshots should explain that issue.

To summarize:
- Can I set width of the field the way I want and how?

As a preliminary solution paste this script into your console using my screenshots as a guide and tell us what happened:

$("div.ButtonName").css("width", "150px")

Before Pasting 



After Pasting

Nothing happened on my page when I did that, maybe because I don't have buttons if you don't save and cancel buttons.

apparently I posted an answer to another question in this thread - disregard all button stuff

should have posted here:

Ok, please look into my issue. Thanks.

Aleksander,
I suggest that one thing that you can try which is native Quick Base use is to remove the sections from the form and replace them with text elements  (ie words)  on the form. 

Whenever you have a new section on the form, the field alignment resets just for that one section and will not correspond to any sections above or below.

>Whenever you have a new section on the form, the field alignment resets just for that one section and will not correspond to any sections above or below.

But it only takes two lines of script to align the columns indifferent sections! Visit this application and count to three and then alignment kicks in.

Thank you Dan, you did a good job there.

Couple of more questions. I don't need all the fields within this table to be in line (one above the other). Can I use this for specific fields only (ability to add field name to the formula, maybe?)

Since I'm not a programmer, could you please explain how I could insert this code and which part I should change to get it working?

Many thanks!

Hello Dan,

Just wanted to ask again if you could elaborate on this with a bit more details. My programming skills are not on that level that I could easily pick up your advises. Thanks!
