Can you change Field Size?

    1) Hi, I'm brand new to Gravity Forms. The question I have is there a way to increase the size in height a bit of the fields? This was a question my client asked of me.

    2) I've tried to tab from one field to another (just like a customer would), instead of using a mouse to place the cursor into each field but no luck (using FF 5.0 and IE 7.0). Is there something I'm doing wrong?

  2. Unofficial answers from another GF user:

    The problem with the tab order is that you have two forms on that page: the WordPress comment form, and the Gravity Form. The tab indexes will conflict. You should probably turn off comments for that page. The first field in the comment form has a tab index of one, which is what is messing things up.

    For the height of the fields (and the select box for the state), you can add this to the style.css from your Builder theme (or wherever they recommend you make your changes to the CSS):

    .gform_wrapper input, .gform_wrapper option {
    height: 2em;
    }

    Where 2em is whatever height you want to make it. You might have to adjust the size of the font and line-height too, but that's how you make the fields taller.

    Thank you VERY much. I did turn off the comments on that page and the tabbing worked.

    I'm having the same problem, but I need to keep both forms. Any suggestions on how to fix it so that the tab function works as expected?

  5. You can set the starting tabindex on a form with a filter added to your functions.php file.

    This example changes form ID 10's tabindex start value to 4

    <?php
    add_filter("gform_tabindex_10", create_function("", "return 4;"));
    ?>

    or you could disable the tabindexes altogether with this filter..

    <?php
    add_filter("gform_tabindex", create_function("", "return false;"));
    ?>
