Adding a section on a form in CRM 2011 RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have a form in CRM 2011 with a tab split into 2 columns. On this tab, I want to add a section that spans across both columns of the tab (the entire width of the form). When I insert a section on the tab, it just adds the new section to the left column of the tab and I am unable to get it to span across the other column. Does anyone know of a way to achieve this?

    Thanks in advance!

  • I have fixed this issue by adding a new one-column tab without showing the tab name below the existing tab and adding a one-column section within that tab. So this now ends up looking like another field within the same tab since the new tab doesnt have a name displayed.

    Thanks for your inputs guys!

  • Hi

    Do you want to keep the layout as two columns or one column.

    If you want a section to span over both the columns why not to go for a single column tab

  • I need to keep the layout of the tab as two columns but want only this one section to span across both columns. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to do this.

  • Why don´t you just add a new section with one column? Don´t show section label for this. Right below this section add another two column layout section and add further attributes. This way you don´t need a script to do your action
