How to change the max length of a column label fieldIssue While trying to set the field label for a field to be more than 80 characters, it truncates the label field to 80 characters. ResolutionQ. Is there a way to just change the column label max length just for this form or will it need to be global? A. Yes, this will be a global change to the sys_documentation label field and the sys_dictionary column_label fields. Q. If global will this have any effect to the width of this field in other locations? A. Yes, this will basically allow any tables' field label to be set to the maxlength you set on the above two records. Q. Is this considered best practice and if not what would be the correct way to approach this? It is not recommended to converting the sys_documentation label field to a to a length more than 255 as this will convert this to a mediumtext field in the database. This will technically allow practically any length of label to be set on any table which is not a good practice. However, you could achieve the label to fully display up to 255 characters maxlength set on the dictionary for sys_documentation label and sys_dictionary column_label fields to be in sync for this to work. Modify the below two records to a maxlenght of 255 to keep it varchar(255) in the backend and display upto 255 characters on any table's label field.
