Hello,

Using Odoo 11 Community. When there is a text field in a form view, if in enter a lot of text in that field and save, the form view become very large with a horizontal scroll bar. Does somebeody have a solution the let the form view fit to screen size? I don't know why the form view doesn't automatically wrap the text of the text view...

I have the same case when I use the odoo default skin or Material/United Backend Theme (https://www.odoo.com/apps/themes/11.0/backend_theme_v11/).

Thanks

By the way, the form view is shown as "current" and not as "new" (popup). When it's in a new view, like a popup, I doesn't have the problem.

Hi Evans,
Please add to your style the following : word-break: break-word;

Ex:

<field name="Field1" style="word-break: break-word;"/>

If it does not work, add white-space: normal;

like this :

<field name="Field1" style="white-space: normal;word-break: break-word;"/>

Upvote if this helps.

Thank you

Unfortunately, it's not working. Maybe if it can change something, my field use the html widget.

Thanks

Hi,

try to use <div class="oe_clear"/> after the final element on the form (before <form/>)

Are you sure it's a fields.Text field? If it's a fields.Char field then you would see similar issues.

Yep, it's a "fields.Text" field. I use it to enter a description using HTML widget. I tried without HTML widget and I have the same issue. My text field is on column 1 of a 2 columns forms (under <group>)
