Hello Ricki,

That's odd.. It doesn't work for me.. How different is your environment from 
mine?

I am on Windows 2003
ARS 7.5 Patch 2
User Tool 7.5 Patch 2
Dev Studio 7.5 Patch 2
Mid-Tier 7.5 Patch 2
Oracle database 10 Release 2
Browsers : Usually IE 6 on production, and 7 and 8 in test environment
I also use FireFox 3.5 for fun although its not a standard here.
JSP Engine: Tomcat 5.5.25

I am yet to see a type of client in my environment where the expand box hides 
on multiple rows character fields. Change them to single row and it hides..

I am yet to trust the new Development Studio as much as I used to trust the 
older Admin tool :-) so I just thought I'd add that the form was developed 
using the new development tool-set after installing ARS 7.5 Patch 2. It wasn't 
a form that was upgraded from an earlier release..

Joe

PS: Due to some problems I noticed on the list lately I thought I'd CC you my 
reply. So I apologize in advance if that might bother you.

Listers,
 
I guess its my turn to bug the list for a bit :-)
 
I have noticed this a few days ago but thought I'd bring this up 
with Remedy Support later but before I do wanted to see what I hear from you 
guys here..
I have character fields where I have the Expand Box hidden.. WORKS with 
SINGLE-ROW fields.. However if I define a MULTIPLE-ROW field, the expand box 
DOES NOT HIDE irrespective of the choice of hiding or not hiding it. This 
happens both on the thick as well as the thin client..
I am almost dead sure it did hide when instructed to hide in the older 
versions..
Has anyone noticed anything in the new documentations that this new behavior 
may be as designed? Or s this a small cosmetic bug?
 
It looks ugly if you have a text field that you have displayed as text to 
display stuff like tips or whatever which you know would fit in the real estate 
you provided for it, but you see that ugly box on the form when you do not even 
need it..
 
Joe
