RT 3.6 Change look and feel of customized fields

RT Users

I am a novice who has easily created customized fields (RT is Great for that) but now want to change the look and feel to allow the fields to display nicely in a browser.

Can the fields look and feel as displayed in the browser be altered (see how much I am a novice!)??
Not looking to major radical changes, just some simple sizing to allow text in the field to display completely.

Any pointers learning/understanding any other programming language I may need welcomed!

Own RT Essentials.

Running 3.6.7 on UNIX with Apache with limited admin support, so I must do!

Thanks in advance

I created local EditCustomFields in /opt/rt3/local/html/Elements/ which changed
the $Rows & $Columns values to 5 and 75, respectively.

Now the boxes are large enough that my users aren’t complaining. :slight_smile:

This might help.
