Option to resize the column name on Detail View

[Koichi_Tsuji]

When we have relatively long fields name, like a sentence, the font size for the field name on the details view are super tiny, almost unreadable for those like me, who need a glass to read tiny character.

I want to change the font size for field name on details view optionally.

Your post made me think of an English phrase: “Great minds think alike.” I found a Japanese translation (“偉人達は同じ考えを持つものである”) but I think this kind of expression is far too immodest (even jokingly) for Japanese culture.

At any rate, I have made a similar request:

Capability to change size, color, etc of display name with format rule Feature Requests

The following discussion is from a year ago: I am reposting it as a “Feature Request” because I found myself wanting it again today. In the meantime, last year’s discussion contains a workaround.

I just voted for your request. Please vote for mine.

Here’s a workaround:

Change appearance of headings or "display names" Tips & Tricks 💡

Currently, AppSheet does not allow us to use format rules to change the appearance of the headings in detail views. This has led me, @tsuji_koichi and others to ask for this ability: Koji just posted his request and that prompted me to reread my old request on the same topic. In response to it @Jonathan_S had asked if there was a temporary work around and I answered the I didn’t know of one. Then it occurred to me that I did. So, here it is.

This feature is needed.  Upvoted.  This seems like a no brainer to have had at initial launch.

Ok my eyesight is getting more and more rubbish, I hope this can be implemented soon

My workaround for this, which is a bit of a pain, is to have extra columns for everything using Long Text (HTML). It's then a concatenation of the display name and the column data all on the one line. It's a lot extra work but better than carrying my reading glasses with me everywhere.
