Missing custom fields when creating a view

[Dan Munns]

Hi all,

I am sure this has been asked before but I cant find it. Is there any reason why when creating a custom view in SM the custom fields available only go as far as O for the lettered ones and 30 for the numbered? 

If there is no reason can I make this an enhancement request for the missing ones to be added please.

Thanks,
Dan

The "missing" fields are TEXT fields, and can therefore hold effectively unlimited amounts of data (including special characters such as newlines etc.)

Apart from the obvious issue of this being able to break the display layout, this can also crash your web browser if too much data is held in the fields.
