Where would I change the width of the existing tinymce form for the Newsletter? I am getting a scroll bar on the bottom from a newsletter I used in JR4 so I would like to extend it a bit.

Thanks!

I think it fills in the div its put in. Try changing the width of the container.

Hey Michael - I went into core_form_layout.css and changed the below 15% and 85% respectively which yielded an odd result. It was resized but it really just shifted everything a bit to the left. What was odd is I now had a brand new Expand Help Button that appeared next to the form on the right that does nothing. I am wondering if this was supposed to be there with the available variables for the newsletter?


.element_left {
    background-color:transparent;
    text-align:right;
    text-transform:capitalize;
    padding:8px;
    width:25%;
}
/* @title Element Right */
/* @help This is the right side of pages and forms where the form elements appear */
.element_right {
    background-color:transparent;
    padding:6px;
    width:75%;
}

You don't want to change those classes - that's going to mess things up :)

The file you are looking for is modules/jrCore/templates/form_editor.tpl - inside you'll see that it is already using 100% width though.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!

Thanks Brian. Any idea why another help icon appeared? It looks like we are missing the newsletter variables. Maybe that was it?

The icons that show on the tiny_mce editor are dependent on the width of the editor - so that icon is just hidden by default based on the current width - when you made it wider it showed up.
