How do I adjust the column widths of a referenced field when it pops up?

Switch to Admin mode before hit the referenced field. When the window pops up, adjust the desired column width and finaly make a selection.

After that Ninox prompts you to save changes or revert them.

Save changes and you are ready to go...  

I'm having the same problem Mr. K is having, however, even the workaround isn't working for me.

I've had problems getting Ninox to maintain my pop-up window column-width changes for months but I rarely do it and I've always been able to get around it by forcing Ninox to prompt me to save, then making my column width changes before saving. But now that doesn't even work.

I've tried making the changes while using the Ninox app, the Ninox website, I've tried it on my Mac, my PC, in Chrome, in Firefox, etc etc. I'm trying to make a change now that is pretty important and I'm at a standstill. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate it.

@Mr. K and @BlairW... The key is in FIRST clicking the wrench (aka .. the admin role.. the I want to wrench on something and fix it mode).. If you watch the Ninox Learning Channel .. Our Pal Andy has one sitting on his desk.. :)   and THEN doing the configuration / change. 

 

We can argue over the whys and what fors.. but this is just the way it works.. 

@Mr K.. what platform are you on?  Here is a sample from an "Invoice" database.. where there is a customer search .. 

 

and clicking the Customer Search yields.. 

 

 

If I want to change the order of the fields such that it is sorted in customer last name ascending order.. All I have to do is.. 

1.  Navigate to a new invoice. 

2.  Click the wrench icon in the upper right.. This puts me into Admin mode. 

3.  Click the Customer Search magnifying glass. 

4.  Adjust the view as I desire (drop ID.. move last name to first column, resize columns, etc..  ) 

5.  Click Cancel

6.  Click Save Changes.. 

 

And POOF.. the search / pop up is as I defined it..   As Randy Travis said it long aog.. "Forever and ever, Ahmen" .. LOL

 

So ... the key is going into the Wrench / Admin mode.. then adjusting the view as you see fit. 

Thanks for the additional info but I still can't get it to work. Just for clarification, I WAS able to get the workaround to work in the past. It worked every single time I tried it. No issues at all. Now, the first time I've tried it in months, I can't get Ninox to save the layout changes to a pop-up select record window to save my life. I've aready spent a couple of hours on this so I'll reach out directly to Ninox support and see if they can help. Thanks again for the suggestions.
