No. of columns displayed for checkbox

Hi…

The maximum no. of columns that can be displayed for a check box in lotus notes is 8.

I need to display the list of months in a check box in a single line.

i.e. jan feb mar apr may jun jul aug sep oct nov dec (check box in 1 line) how can i do this in Lotus notes?

Subject: displaying lots of checkboxes in one line

Since it’s checkboxes, I suppose you could just define two fields side by side and have six columns in each. Radio buttons would be more complicated.

Otherwise, you might be able to do it by making it a shared field and fiddling with the design using DXL or the C API. The 8-column limit is probably in the UI, and not an inherent limitation, so if you can bypass the UI and work on the design element with code, you can probably get past that.

Subject: editing with dxl

You can edit dxl, but the result is 8 max per row,I put in 12 and it came up in the client as 4
