Sudden change in screen layout.
I don't have a version update as far as I can see - 3.12.7 is what I have now but this morning when I loaded my APP everything is messed up UI wise. Anyone else have this happen or do I need to investigate my display settings or something.

Sorted - there is bug. Cannot quite pin it down but it is to do with sliding a form to the right and leaving it that way and going elsewhere in the database and even closing it. When one reopens the database the elements on a form regardless of which one are stretched and displaced. Has anyone else encountered this behaviour?

Feedback from Ninox:
This in fact is not a bug but how Ninox works. I copy below the reply from Ninox.
Hello Alan,
thank you for the elaboration. I discussed this with my colleagues and we were able to find out that is - some would say unfortunately - a feature instead of a bug. Technically, there can only ever be one form view, meaning that when you change the horizontal size of the view as you demonstrated in the video, that scaling is then translated onto every other form in the database.
The fullscreen view you use for your dashboard is finally just another form view which also uses that universal form scaling. When you make any form view narrow enough, rows are broken off in the middle. Where there were once four fields in one row, they become two rows of two fields each, and so on. The fullscreen view applies the row breaks as well, despite the fact that it visually stretches entirely from the left end of the screen to the right
The solution would therefore be to just not set the form view to be displayed so narrow. There is unfortunately nothing we can offer as a workaround as this is a fundamental feature of the Ninox UI.
I have not replied but I would point out that "fullscreen view you use for your dashboard" is not the case. It is the standard form stripped of all sidebar and other icons etc using the hide options one can use.
