[Solved] Check Box Change Clickable Size

Post by Mickey12 »

Hi I was wondering if there was a way to enlarge the actual clickable area of a check box. Not just the area around it?
There is an earlier unsolved post.
Thanks

You can enlarge the click area of the chekbox (in the Calc application) by enlarging the object area, and then enlarging the Caption text area (with a long text, even if it contains only whitespace characters). And you need set ON the option Word break as you can see on the attached picture.

Same in the Writer application.

Note: the monospace type fonts will help you to align the text lenght in the textual lines of the Caption.

Your Base form is an ordinary Writer document embedded in the database document, typically with a coloured page background displayed in "web view mode" without page borders. Form controls are the same in all components Writer, Calc, Draw and Impress.
Please, edit this topic's initial post and add "[Solved]" to the subject line if your problem has been solved.
